# Integrations > NextDNS integration guides for third-party platforms and services. This skill should be used when integrating NextDNS with routers, home automation systems, network management platforms, or other third-party services. Triggers on tasks involving Tailscale, Home Assistant, Ubiquiti, pfSense, OpenWrt, or other platform-specific NextDNS configurations. - Skill: `diegosouzapw/integrations` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 2 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add diegosouzapw/integrations` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/diegosouzapw/integrations/raw - Safety review: pending (external: skill-scanner PASS, skillspector PASS) - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: Integrations & APIs - License: MIT - Author: diegosouzapw (https://skillmd.com/u/diegosouzapw) - Updated: 2026-09-08 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/diegosouzapw/integrations --- # NextDNS integration skills ## Capability rules | Rule | Keywords | Description | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Browser Native DoH Configuration](rules/browsers.md) | browser, chrome, edge, firefox, doh, dns-over-https, secure-dns, encrypted-dns, corporate, proxy | Configure DNS-over-HTTPS directly in browsers for encrypted DNS without system-wide changes or admin privileges | | [DNSMasq Integration](rules/dnsmasq-integration.md) | dnsmasq, dns, router, client reporting, conditional configuration, port configuration, setup-router | Configure DNSMasq and NextDNS to run together while maintaining client reporting and conditional configuration features | | [Mobile Native Encrypted DNS Configuration](rules/mobile-native.md) | mobile, android, ios, iphone, ipad, private-dns, dot, dns-over-tls, configuration-profile, mobileconfig, native, lightweight | Configure native encrypted DNS on Android and iOS devices without battery-draining background apps | | [OpenWrt Integration](rules/openwrt.md) | openwrt, router, installation, upgrade, troubleshooting, ssh, luci | Installation, upgrade, and troubleshooting guidance for NextDNS on OpenWrt routers | | [Home Assistant Integration](rules/home-assistant.md) | home assistant, hass, integration, automation, parental control, api, sensors, switches, blocklist | Enable automated DNS control and monitoring through Home Assistant smart home platform with time-based rules and analytics | | [Tailscale Integration](rules/tailscale.md) | tailscale, vpn, mesh network, doh, dns-over-https, acl, nodeattrs, global nameserver, split dns | Configure NextDNS with Tailscale mesh VPN using DoH, global nameservers, and per-device profile assignment via ACLs | | [Ubiquiti (UniFi) Integration](rules/ubiquiti.md) | ubiquiti, unifi, udm, uxg, dream machine, gateway, content filtering, ad blocking, ssh, cli, dns shield | Deploy NextDNS on Ubiquiti UniFi devices using DNS Shield or CLI, with critical guidance on avoiding built-in DNS conflicts | | [pfSense and OPNsense Integration](rules/pfsense-opnsense.md) | pfsense, opnsense, firewall, router, unbound, dns-over-tls, dot, freebsd, dns resolver | Deploy NextDNS on pfSense and OPNsense firewalls with proper encrypted DNS configuration and platform-specific guidance | | [Public DNS and AdGuard Home Integration](rules/public-dns-and-adguard.md) | public dns, adguard, anycast, doh, dot, browser setup, windows, android, ios, upstream dns, bootstrap dns | Configure NextDNS public DNS servers on browsers and operating systems, and integrate with AdGuard Home as upstream DNS provider | | [Synology Integration (DSM and SRM)](rules/synology.md) | synology, dsm, srm, nas, router, ssh, cli, dhcp, network | Install NextDNS on Synology NAS (DSM) and routers (SRM) with proper SSH access and network configuration | | [AsusWRT-Merlin](rules/asuswrt-merlin.md) | asus, merlin, router, ssh, installation, setup | Deploy NextDNS on Asus routers with Merlin firmware | | [EdgeRouter and Firewalla](rules/edgerouter-firewalla.md) | edgerouter, edgeos, firewalla, gateway, ssh, professional | Deploy NextDNS on EdgeRouter and Firewalla hardware | | [MikroTik DoH Setup](rules/mikrotik-setup.md) | mikrotik, routeros, doh, dns-over-https, networking | Configure NextDNS via DNS-over-HTTPS on MikroTik RouterOS devices | | [Kubernetes Integration](rules/kubernetes.md) | kubernetes, k8s, coredns, daemonset, dns policy, container | Deploy NextDNS CLI as a node-level DNS proxy in Kubernetes clusters | ## Efficiency rules | Rule | Keywords | Description | | ----------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- | | [Backup and Failover](rules/backup-failover.md) | backup dns, failover, redundancy, reliability | Ensure connectivity during DNS outages | ## Adding new integration rules When adding a new integration rule: 1. Create a new file in `rules/` using kebab-case naming 2. Follow the rule template structure from `templates/rule-template.md` 3. Include platform-specific configuration examples 4. Add troubleshooting steps for common issues 5. Register the rule in the appropriate table above 6. Run `pnpm lint:fix` to ensure compliance ### Example integration platforms Consider creating rules for these popular platforms: **Capability Rules**: - Tailscale (mesh VPN) - Home Assistant (smart home automation) - Ubiquiti UniFi (network controller) - OpenWrt (router firmware) - pfSense (firewall/router) - Docker (containerization) - Kubernetes (orchestration) - Synology NAS (network storage) **Efficiency Rules**: - Multi-platform deployment strategy - Integration testing and validation - Backup DNS and failover configuration
