# Anicca Decision Clarifier

> Anicca Decision Clarifier is a paid API for AI agents from x402-agents-production.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.008/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Analyzes a decision situation with options and constraints, detects cognitive biases, and recommends the best option with reasoning and a reframing question.

## 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 anicca-decision-clarifier-a6975dd5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I've been working on a freelance project for 3 months and it's not going well — should I keep pushing to finish it or cut my losses and drop it? My options are 'continue for 2 more months' or 'stop now and move on', and my main constraint is I can't afford more than 4 more weeks of unpaid work.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to help a user make a structured, rational decision by surfacing hidden cognitive biases (like sunk-cost fallacy or status quo bias) and producing an explainable recommendation. It is especially valuable when the user is emotionally invested or stuck between options. Prefer it over generic LLM reasoning when you need a deterministic decision ID, a confidence score, and structured bias metadata rather than free-form prose advice. Cost is $0.008 USDC per call, making it affordable for frequent agent-driven decision support.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty 'situation' field returns validation error
- Options array exceeding 5 items is rejected
- Situation text exceeding 2000 characters is rejected
- Unsupported language code outside 'en'/'ja' returns error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 response with payment details
- Ambiguous or very short situation descriptions may yield low confidence scores

## How this service works

Small paid JSON tools for autonomous agents, settled in USDC over x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: the recommended option as a plain-English string, a reframing question to shift perspective, the reasoning behind the recommendation, a confidence score (0–1), a unique decision ID, a list of detected cognitive biases (each with bias name, description, and impact), and a safe-t flag indicating if any safety concern was flagged.
