<Info>
  Domain-based discovery helps users find and trust services through verified domain ownership.

## Discovery Patterns

### Find Services by Domain
```bash
# Query services for a domain
snrd query svc services-by-domain example.com

# Parse service IDs
snrd query svc services-by-domain example.com -o json | 
  jq -r '.services[].id'
```

### Trust Verification
Domain binding provides trust through:
- **DNS Ownership**: Proven control of domain
- **Brand Association**: Services linked to known domains
- **Discovery Path**: Find services via familiar domains

## Integration Scenarios

### Service Discovery Flow
```javascript
async function discoverServices(domain) {
  // 1. Query services by domain
  const services = await queryServicesByDomain(domain);
  
  // 2. Filter active services
  const active = services.filter(s => 
    s.status === 'ACTIVE'
  );
  
  // 3. Categorize by permissions
  return {
    dataServices: active.filter(s => 
      s.permissions.includes('dwn:read')
    ),
    vaultServices: active.filter(s => 
      s.permissions.includes('vault:access')
    ),
    identityServices: active.filter(s => 
      s.permissions.includes('identity:read')
    )
  };
}
```

### Multi-Service Domains
```json
{
  "services": [
    {
      "id": "chat",
      "domain": "example.com",
      "permissions": ["dwn:read", "dwn:write"]
    },
    {
      "id": "storage",
      "domain": "example.com",
      "permissions": ["dwn:write", "vault:access"]
    },
    {
      "id": "auth",
      "domain": "example.com",
      "permissions": ["identity:read", "credentials:verify"]
    }
  ]
}
```

## Domain Organization

### Service Naming Conventions

#### By Function
- `auth@example.com` - Authentication service
- `storage@example.com` - Storage service
- `api@example.com` - API gateway

#### By Product
- `chat@social.example.com` - Chat application
- `vault@secure.example.com` - Vault manager
- `wallet@finance.example.com` - Wallet service

<Tip>
  Use subdomains to organize services by category or security level.
</Tip>

## Trust Establishment

### Verify Domain Services
```bash
# Check domain ownership
DOMAIN_STATUS=$(snrd query svc domain example.com -o json)

# If verified, query services
if [ $(echo $DOMAIN_STATUS | jq -r '.status') = "VERIFIED" ]; then
  snrd query svc services-by-domain example.com
fi
```

### Service Validation
```javascript
// Validate service belongs to expected domain
function validateService(service, expectedDomain) {
  return service.domain === expectedDomain && 
         service.status === 'ACTIVE';
}

// Check all services for domain
async function auditDomain(domain) {
  const services = await queryServicesByDomain(domain);
  return services.map(s => ({
    id: s.id,
    valid: validateService(s, domain),
    permissions: s.permissions
  }));
}
```

## Common Patterns

### Enterprise Domains
Multiple services under corporate domain:
- `api@company.com` - Public API
- `admin@company.com` - Admin panel
- `user@company.com` - User portal

### Development Domains
Test services on subdomains:
- `test@dev.example.com` - Test service
- `staging@dev.example.com` - Staging service
- `prod@example.com` - Production service

<Warning>
  Always verify domain ownership status before trusting services bound to that domain.
</Warning>

## Usage Analytics

### Service Count by Domain
```bash
# Count services per domain
snrd query svc services-by-domain example.com -o json | 
  jq '.services | length'
```

### Permission Summary
```bash
# Aggregate permissions across domain services
snrd query svc services-by-domain example.com -o json | 
  jq '[.services[].permissions] | flatten | unique'
```

<Note>
  Domains can host multiple services, each with unique IDs and permission sets. Plan your service architecture accordingly.
