Domain Model: godaddy-tofu

Diagram

Components

Component	Purpose	Notes
PROVIDER	Provider config with GoDaddy API credentials	Maps to <code>provider "godaddy" {}</code> block
DNS_RECORD	Individual DNS record (A, CNAME, TXT, MX, etc.)	Resource: <code>godaddy_dns_record</code>. Composite key: domain+type+name
DOMAIN	Registered domain with metadata	Resource: <code>godaddy_domain</code> (read-heavy, limited write). Data source: <code>godaddy_domains</code>

Key Decisions

DNS records as individual resources (not bulk replace) — avoids the dangerous "delete unmanaged records" pattern from community providers
Composite key (domain+type+name) identifies a record — matches GoDaddy API path structure
Domain resource is read-heavy — purchase/transfer/delete are out of scope for initial implementation
