Why it is in this group
- The name "convert" says "convert": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Convert a value between units in the same dimension: length, mass, temperature, volume, data, time, area, speed, angle, pressure, energy. Deterministic. Args: value (number), from (unit), to (unit). e.g. {value:100, from:'c', to:'f'} or {value:1, from:'GiB', to:'MB'}. Different-dimension conversions 400.
currencyPAID $0.001.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
Description, as the server wrote it PAID $0.001. Convert an amount between currencies at reference/mid-market rates from a keyless public central-bank feed (ECB), cached. Informational, not a dealable quote. Args: amount, from, to (ISO-4217, e.g. USD, EUR, JPY). Without payment returns the x402 challenge; pass x_payment to settle.
datemathPAID $0.001.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
Description, as the server wrote it PAID $0.001. Calendar date math. op='add'/'subtract' an ISO-8601 duration (P1Y2M10DT2H30M) to a date; op='diff' two datetimes into chosen units; op='business-add' add business days (configurable weekend + holidays); op='business-diff' count business days between two dates. Without payment returns the x402 challenge; pass x_payment to settle.

cronPAID $0.001.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it PAID $0.001. Parse a 5- or 6-field cron expression and return the next N run times plus a plain-English description. Args: expression, timezone (IANA, default UTC), count (default 5), from (ISO, optional). Without payment returns the x402 challenge; pass x_payment to settle.
encodeFREE.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Encode or decode text. op is one of base64-encode|base64-decode|base64url-encode|base64url-decode|hex-encode|hex-decode|url-encode|url-decode|html-encode|html-decode. Args: op, text.
hashFREE.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Compute a cryptographic digest: sha256, sha512, sha384, sha1, md5, sha3-256, keccak256, ripemd160. Optional HMAC via hmac_key. Output hex (default), base64, or base64url. keccak256 also returns a 0x-form (handy for Ethereum). Args: algorithm, text (+ input_encoding utf8|hex|base64, output_encoding, hmac_key).
idFREE.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Generate identifiers. kind is one of uuidv4|uuidv7|ulid|nanoid|hex|base64url|int. count up to 1000. nanoid takes `size`; hex/base64url take `bytes`. Uses a CSPRNG. Args: kind, count.
jsonschemaPAID $0.001.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it PAID $0.001. Validate a value against a JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) and explain every error in plain English (which property, what was wrong, allowed values). Args: schema (object), data (any). Without payment returns the x402 challenge; pass x_payment to settle.
regexFREE.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Run a regular expression against input with catastrophic-backtracking protection (it runs in a killable worker with a hard timeout, so a pathological pattern returns a 400 instead of hanging). op is test|match|extract|replace. Args: pattern, input, flags (gimsuy), op, replacement (for replace).
rrulePAID $0.001.No findings
Why it is in this group

Args: rrule (e.g. 'FREQ=WEEKLY;BYDAY=MO,WE;COUNT=10'), after (ISO, default now), count (default 5), timezone. Tip: include DTSTART for anchored series. Without payment returns the x402 challenge; pass x_payment.
textFREE.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it FREE. Text transforms. op='slugify' -> URL slug; op is one of camel|pascal|snake|kebab|constant|dot|path|title|sentence|upper|lower for case conversion; op='template' fills {{placeholders}} from `data`. Args: op, text (for slugify/case), or template + data (for template).
timezonePAID $0.001 (x402, USDC on Base).No findings
Why it is in this group

Why it is in this group
- The name "diff" says "diff": a word for reading.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
