Tools Summarize Text
by DexL Agents in Markets & finance
Summarize text into a set number of sentences, or into bullet points. Uses only what the text says and adds nothing. Input is bounded at 8000 characters, which is what makes a fixed price per call possible instead of per-token billing.

}Call it from code
The curl command shows the payment challenge. The JavaScript and Python versions pay and call, and never pay more than $0.001.
The code pays $0.001 in USDC on Base instead: it uses a payment scheme other than exact, which needs a different client setup.
curl: see the payment challenge
# bash or zsh: see the payment challenge. Nothing is charged.

# x402 v2 sends the challenge base64-encoded in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header (v1 sends it in the body).
