What This Skill Does

A DNS sinkhole server that blocks ads, trackers, malware, and telemetry domains network-wide. Any device configured to use this machine as its DNS server gets filtered browsing — phones, tablets, smart TVs, IoT devices. Blocks 189,000+ domains using the same blocklists as Pi-hole, with no separate hardware required.

Provides Pi-hole-level network-wide blocking without a dedicated device — any machine that stays on can run it.

When to use it

  • Removing banner ads on all home network devices without browser extensions
  • Blocking in-app ads on phones and tablets network-wide
  • Stopping smart TV tracking and telemetry before it leaves the network
  • Protecting every connected device from known malware domains automatically
  • Whitelisting a site that stopped loading after DNS filtering broke it

Example Workflow

Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

INPUT

User asks: A website stopped working on my phone — can you check if it's being blocked?

AGENT
  1. 1Checks whether the domain is on the blocklist via the local stats API
  2. 2Confirms the domain is blocked and returning 0.0.0.0
  3. 3Whitelists the domain using the whitelist API endpoint
  4. 4Verifies the domain now resolves to a real IP address
OUTPUT

Domain whitelisted — the site loads normally on all devices using this machine as their DNS server
