# AgentDataFormat by LIN Desk

> AgentDataFormat by LIN Desk is a paid API for AI agents from lin-desk-x402.lindesk.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

Deterministically converts between CSV, JSON, YAML, and XML formats and validates JSON against Draft 2020-12 schemas, with no network I/O or external dependencies.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agentdataformat-by-lin-desk-965f9c20 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Convert this CSV text to JSON for me — the first row is the header and the delimiter is a comma — then validate the result against this JSON Schema Draft 2020-12 to make sure it's correct.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need deterministic, reproducible data format conversions or JSON Schema validation with no external network calls, side effects, or risk of non-determinism. It is ideal for agentic pipelines that must transform structured data (CSV/JSON/YAML/XML) reliably at low cost ($0.001/call) and where XXE-safe XML handling is important. Prefer it over general-purpose LLM-based conversion when you need strict schema compliance checking against Draft 2020-12.

## Known failure modes

- Input exceeds 100 KiB limit — request rejected
- Invalid or malformed input for the chosen operation (e.g. non-parseable CSV/XML) — error returned
- Schema validation errors returned when JSON does not conform to the provided Draft 2020-12 schema
- Unsupported or missing 'op' enum value — request rejected
- Payment failure via x402 — call not executed and not charged

## How this service works

Deterministic data convert and JSON Schema validate for AI agents: CSV/JSON/YAML/XML transforms plus Draft 2020-12 schema check. $0.001 per call, USDC on Base (x402). Max body 100 KiB. No network I/O; XXE-safe XML. Failures are not charged.

## Output

Returns the converted or validated output as a string: for format conversions (csv2json, json2csv, json2yaml, yaml2json, xml2json), the result is the target-format text; for json_format, it is pretty-printed JSON; for json_schema, it is a validation result indicating pass/fail and any schema violation details. Failures are not charged.
