Description

Twice keybase Client failed to read DNS verification text place on my website host server. The information is correctly in place as it is the same process used for other verifications done in the past. Maybe the client need to try after 48 hours, as the server did indicates that it can take up to 48 hours

Research direction

The report names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the Keybase client’s DNS verification lookup for the website, then trace the client path that reads the verification text and compare it with the expected DNS record. Done means the reported verification succeeds or the failure is narrowed to a reproducible cause.
