Your DNS will go wrong.
You'll wish you had this.

Someone fat-fingered a zone update. A provider migration went sideways. An expired account wiped your records. You're staring at a blank DNS panel and your entire infrastructure is unreachable.

Email is down. Your website is down. Customer-facing APIs are down. You're trying to remember MX priorities from memory.

Worse: someone silently changed an MX record last Tuesday. Nobody noticed until clients stopped receiving email. By the time you find it, you're three days into a support nightmare — and you're rebuilding from memory because there's no record of what it was before.

Or you're migrating 40 client domains from GoDaddy to Cloudflare. The zone export looks clean until you realise it missed every SRV record and half the DKIM TXT entries. Microsoft 365 auth breaks across a dozen accounts. You don't find out until Monday morning.

Three DNS providers, 40 client domains, and a junior dev just deleted a wildcard record. Which domain? When? What was the value? Without a changelog, you're grepping Slack history and hoping someone pasted the old record somewhere.

The fix takes minutes — if you have a backup. Without one, you're rebuilding blind.
