Field percentages are editorial estimates of the ticket's engineering focus. They total 100%; they are not measured time, proficiency scores, or ownership evidence.

Project context
A fictional internal API is moving to a new endpoint. The team assumes DNS changes are immediate and has no rehearsal for stale clients.
Setup prerequisites
- Create a local resolver simulator and two loopback service endpoints with synthetic DNS records; query no external infrastructure.
Preceding work
No earlier ticket is required. Complete the project setup above.
Acceptance criteria
- List record types, aliases, and modeled consumers.
- Identify ownership and current TTL.
- Mark unknown client caching behavior.
Implementation constraints
- Use reserved local test names only.
Verification to include
- Resolve the declared alias chain.
- Report an unknown consumer cache policy explicitly.
Deliverables
- DNS dependency inventory.
Rollout and recovery
Review inventory before scheduling a cutover.
Value of the work
For the engineer: Practice DNS semantics, migration timing, and network diagnosis.
For the team: Produce a migration plan that makes cache delay and endpoint compatibility explicit.
Evidence boundaries
Outcome Evidence: Tests, patches, and runbooks are requested deliverables. They become Outcome Evidence only through a qualified Mission and immutable Evidence IDs.
Ownership Evidence: Independent adaptation must be observed under a declared verification policy and cite immutable Evidence IDs. Completing a planning ticket establishes no Ownership Evidence.
