DNSFilter StrawberryHand the DNSFilter block categories to a companion
It reads every block category your DNSFilter account holds, drafts the change that follow, and hands you a card for each one before a single block category moves.
Open the block category. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the DNSFilter afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a block category until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what DNSFilter exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 2 operations, 1 read and 1 write. In practice that means it can assign a policy to site, and work across the block categories and policies.
The DNSFilter API stops at DNSFilter. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
What does it already know about your policies?
1 of the 2 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can block category from policy, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from DNSFilter's documentation.
The block categories are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the policies. A companion can hold all 2 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of DNSFilter admin becomes a queue you review.
- Block Category From Policy
Which block categories wait for your approval?
The one write operation there is waits for you.
A companion can assign a policy to site, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the block category, the field and the new value before it lands in DNSFilter.
Nothing in DNSFilter is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the block category exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Assign Policy to Site
Can it block category from policy every morning by itself?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the DNSFilter block categories pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the infrastructure checks, the DNSFilter block categories sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
