apiacre.com Code Metrics is a paid API for AI agents from apiacre.com, paid per call via x402, $0.025/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).
Measures code size, complexity, and maintainability signals for a given code snippet or file.

How this service works
Measure caller-supplied source code with Python AST analysis or a deterministic lexical fallback, including per-function complexity, a SHA-256 fingerprint, density ratios, syntax status, and actionable maintainability signals without retaining or forwarding the code.
Output
Returns computed code metrics including lines of code (total, code, comment, blank), cyclomatic complexity, and maintainability index or similar signals indicating how complex and maintainable the submitted code is.
Example use cases
Pre-refactor complexity audit
“I'm about to refactor this Python class — can you run code metrics on it and tell me the cyclomatic complexity and maintainability index so I know where to focus first?”
CI gate for complexity threshold
“Check this new TypeScript module and tell me if any functions exceed a cyclomatic complexity of 10 — I want to fail the build if they do.”
Code review complexity report
“We're doing a code review on this Java method. Can you give me the size, complexity, and maintainability signals so we have objective numbers to discuss?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://apiacre.com/v1/developer/code-metricsWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need objective, quantitative code quality signals (size, complexity, maintainability) for a specific snippet without setting up a local static analysis tool. Ideal for CI pipelines, code review automation, or agent-driven refactoring workflows where a quick per-call metric computation is needed at low cost.
Side effects
- Unsupported programming language returns an error or empty metrics
- Malformed or non-parseable code may cause parsing failure
- Extremely large code inputs may be rejected or time out
- Missing required fields (e.g. no code body provided) returns a validation error
