Create makes a new Domain from the inputs below. It is inherited: every Noun has get, list, create, update and delete.

Inputs

InputTypeRequiredDescription
hostnamestringrequiredThe name, such as example.com.
rolestringrequiredWhat the Domain does for the Thing it serves; a defensive name takes redirect.
acquiredstringOne of claimed, purchased, or connected.
registrantPartyThe owner of record: the holding Company while held, or the holder of a self-serve Startup’s Stripe account.
expiresAtdatetimeWhen the registration ends, as the registrar reports it; empty for a claimed Domain.
autoRenewbooleanTrue when renewal runs without a Decision; false sends the Domain through renewal review.
renewalPricemoneyWhat the next renewal costs, which for a premium name differs from the purchase price. Never randomized.
transferableAtdatetimeThe first moment the registrar allows a transfer out, after any registration, transfer or registrant lock.
namesstringHow its subdomains are given out: explicit records only, or one-label claims by other Startups.
publicSuffixbooleanTrue once the public suffix list browsers ship carries the Domain; an issuing Domain gives out no label before then.
registrarAccountstringThe registrar account that holds the Domain: one per Startup, never shared with a sibling.
registryLockbooleanTrue when the registry refuses transfer, update and delete until a verified out-of-band request lifts it.
certificatejsonCertificate state (pending, active, renewing or failed), its expiry, and the failing check with its fix.
validationstringdelegated proves control through a CNAME to the platform; serving is for an apex that cannot hold one.
walletsEnabledbooleanTrue once Stripe lists the Domain as a payment method domain on the Startup’s account.
carriedIdentitybooleanTrue once the Domain received mail, hosted a Mailbox or verified an outside account; it never resets.
toDomainFor a redirect: the canonical Domain it forwards to permanently, path and query kept.
siteSiteA Site answers on one or more Domains; each Domain serves one Site.
tenantTenantA Tenant proves control of its Customer’s email domain, so sign-ins on that domain follow the Tenant’s policy.
