What this server can do
6 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.
agent_example(question, max_tokens)- POST /agents/agent_example/run — Single-turn Claude Sonnet inference endpoint. Input: {question: string, max_tokens: integer (default 1024)}. Output: {success, answer, usage: {input_tokens, output_tokens}, error}. No tool use or agentic loop — direct model call. Use for QA, summarisation, or classification tasks. Cost: $0.0100 USDC per call. Required: question.
tool_compute_sandbox(input_data, python_code)- POST /tools/tool_compute_sandbox/run — Executes Python 3.12 code in an isolated subprocess with a 5-second hard timeout. Input: {python_code: string, input_data: any (optional, bound as variable 'input_data')}. Output: {success, result, stdout (capped 50KB), execution_time_ms, error_type}. Return value: assign to 'result' variable. Pre-loaded: math, json, re, statistics, itertools, functools, collections, decimal, datetime, random, hashlib, base64. Blocked: import, open(), eval(), exec(), os, sys, network, class definitions, dunder attributes. error_type values: syntax_error | security_error | runtime_error | timeout_error. Cost: $0.1500 USDC per call. Required: python_code.
tool_data_transformer(raw_text, target_json_schema)- POST /tools/tool_data_transformer/run — Extracts structured JSON from raw text using a caller-supplied JSON Schema. Input: {raw_text: string, target_json_schema: object (JSON Schema draft-07)}. Output: {success, extracted_data, extraction_method, validation_passed, error}. extraction_method is one of: 'direct_parse', 'embedded_json', 'regex_extraction'. No LLM involved — pure parsing pipeline. Type coercion applied for integer/number/boolean fields. Works best with flat schemas; deeply nested structures extract less reliably via key-value pass. Cost: $0.0500 USDC per call. Required: raw_text, target_json_schema.
tool_example(text)- POST /tools/tool_example/run — Stateless text utility for testing x402 payment flows. Input: {text: string}. Output: {original, uppercase, word_count, char_count}. Cost: $0.0010 USDC per call. Required: text.
tool_sa_airport_oracle(airport_code, request_type, flight_number)- POST /tools/sa-airport-oracle/run — Returns live flight status from ACSA (airports.co.za). Input: {airport_code: 'JNB'|'CPT'|'DUR', flight_number: string, request_type: 'arrival'|'departure'}. Output: {success, live_status, scheduled_time, estimated_time, actual_time, gate, carousel, terminal, flight_number, airport_code, request_type, error}. Coverage: JNB (O.R. Tambo), CPT (Cape Town Int'l), DUR (King Shaka). Data window: flights within 48 hours. Call GET /tools/sa-airport-oracle/health (free) first — if structure_valid=false, do not proceed. error_type values: 'stale_data' (do not retry), 'not found' (retry after 10-15 min), network error (retry once). flight_number is case-insensitive and normalised to uppercase internally. Read-only — no booking/ticketing. Cost: $0.1200 USDC per call. Required: airport_code, flight_number, request_type.
tool_zar_prices(pair)- POST /tools/zar-prices/run — Returns live bid/ask/last prices for crypto/ZAR pairs. Input: {pair: 'BTC/ZAR'|'ETH/ZAR'|'SOL/ZAR'|'USDC/ZAR'|'all'}. Output: array of {exchange, pair, price, bid, ask, timestamp} objects. Sources: VALR (all 4 pairs), Luno (BTC/ZAR + ETH/ZAR only). SOL/ZAR and USDC/ZAR are VALR-only. Fetches all exchanges concurrently. Timestamps are ISO-8601 UTC. Cost: $0.0050 USDC per call.

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
