Loopia DNS

Use this skill to manage Loopia DNS through the XML-RPC API endpoint https://api.loopia.se/RPCSERV.

Quick Start

1) Configure credentials

Add credentials to ~/.config/ehh-skills/config.env:

mkdir -p ~/.config/ehh-skills
cat >> ~/.config/ehh-skills/config.env <<'EOF'
LOOPIA_USER="<your-loopia-user>"
LOOPIA_PASSWORD="<your-loopia-password>"
# Optional
# LOOPIA_CUSTOMER="customer-id"
EOF

The CLI auto-loads this file. Environment variables also work:

export LOOPIA_USER="<your-loopia-user>"
export LOOPIA_PASSWORD="<your-loopia-password>"

Optional (if your API user manages another account):

export LOOPIA_CUSTOMER="customer-id"

2) Use the bundled CLI helper

# List domains on the account
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py list-domains

# List subdomains in a zone
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py list-subdomains example.com

# List records on a subdomain (use @ for zone apex)
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py list-records example.com --subdomain www

# List all A records in a zone
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py list-a-records example.com

# Add a DNS record
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py add-record example.com www A 203.0.113.10 --ttl 300

# Update a record by record_id
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py update-record example.com www 123456 A 203.0.113.20 --ttl 300

# Delete a record by record_id
python ~/.config/opencode/skill/loopia-dns/scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py delete-record example.com www 123456

Workflow

1. Validate zone and subdomain from user request.
2. Start with list-a-records for quick A-record audits, or list-subdomains + list-records for full inspection.
3. For changes, target a specific record_id.
4. Re-read records to verify result.
5. Report changes in a short before/after style.

Common Operations

• List current DNS: list-records
• List all A records: list-a-records
• Create record: add-record
• Edit record: update-record with known record_id
• Remove record: delete-record with known record_id

Notes

• Apex/root often uses subdomain @.
• TTL is in seconds.
• Loopia propagation can take minutes (sometimes up to around 15 minutes).
• Required Loopia API permissions are documented in references/loopia_api.md.
• Preferred config location: ~/.config/ehh-skills/config.env.

• CLI helper: scripts/loopia_dns_cli.py
