Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check DNS Aid every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

DNS Aid — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for DNS Aid?

DNS Aid runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package dns-aid was installed 418 times last week.

How do I connect DNS Aid?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls dns-aid straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use DNS Aid?

The pypi package dns-aid was installed 418 times in the last week. Week over week that is -12%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is DNS Aid open source?

Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python, 74 stars on GitHub and 19 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
