List DNS records for a zone
AI agents call cf_list_dns_records to retrieve information from Cargoshipper without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and lists DNS records without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It is a read-only operation that returns information about existing DNS records.
