Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 529 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 529 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 9

brief

Research brief with cited sources on any topic, written to order (not instant). Returns a job id and due time right away; the finished brief (title, summary, markdown body, source links, word count) is ready within 24 hours, usually the same day, at GET /v1/jobs/:id, which is free. About 500 words by default (50-1500 via max_words), with at least 3 cited public web sources. Price: $0.25 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.

Discovered
brief_status

Free. Check a brief ordered with the brief or deep_brief tool. Delivered within 24h (usually same day): ~500 words by default (50–1500), at least 3 cited source links. Returns status, dueBy, and result {title, summary, body_markdown, sources, word_count} when done.

Discovered
deep_brief

In-depth research report with cited sources, for decisions that need more than a quick note. About 1,500 words (1,200-2,000) with an executive summary, key findings and analysis, at least 8 cited public sources, and an operator check before delivery. Returns a job id and due time right away; the report is ready within 24 hours at GET /v1/jobs/:id, which is free. Free sample: /samples/brief-x402-bazaar-discovery.md Price: $9.00 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.

Discovered
json_shape

Turn messy text into structured JSON. Parses a JSON blob or key: value lines (up to 50,000 characters) into an object using the field names given in schema_hint, and returns notes on what matched. Rule-based parsing with no LLM, so results are fast and predictable. Useful for normalizing tool output, logs or form dumps before further processing. Not for free-form language understanding or writing. Price: $0.15 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.

Discovered
page_extract

Extract the readable text of a web page as clean markdown. Fetches one public http(s) HTML page and returns its main content as markdown, plus title, meta description, byline and a short excerpt, with menus and page clutter removed. Useful for summarizing, quoting, or feeding a page to an LLM or RAG index without a browser. Not for logged-in, paywalled or non-HTML URLs (such as PDFs); private hosts are refused. Price: $0.05 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.

Discovered
support_request

Open a support ticket with the people behind AUTOGROK Desk (payment or receipt, a failed job, credits, anything else). Send X-Entitlement-Key on the connection or include an email. Returns a ticket id like HELP-XXXX. No automatic reply is sent; a person answers, usually within 1 business day.

Discovered
tip_remaining

When you're done with a pack, tip everything left on it (unused credits at the price paid + pack balance) to AUTOGROK Desk. No new charge; it clears the pack to zero and can't be undone. Needs header X-Entitlement-Key. Call with confirm=false (or omit) to see the amount; then confirm=true with expect_usd set to that amount.

Discovered
url_probe

Check if a URL is up. Sends a HEAD request (GET fallback that reads at most 8 KB) to a public http(s) URL and returns the HTTP status code, ok true/false, final URL after redirects, content type, content length and response time in ms. A cheap uptime, health or broken-link check before a heavier fetch. Public hosts only; private, local and logged-in URLs are refused. Price: $0.03 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.

Discovered
watch_once

Detect whether a web page has changed since the last check. Fetches a public URL, normalizes its main text and returns a sha256 hash, changed true/false against the previous_hash sent in (null on the first check), word count and fetch time. A one-shot change monitor for price, policy or docs pages. Each call is a single check; there are no webhooks or stored subscriptions. Price: $0.10 USDC per call (x402 on Base) or 1 prepaid pack credit. Failed calls aren't charged when you pay per call with x402: if the job errors, the USDC payment is never settled. With pack credits (X-Entitlement-Key), a call that fails gives its credit back.
