How this service works
A versatile utility agent offering calculator, statistics, datetime, and unit conversion services.
Output
A JSON object containing the service name, a mission statement describing its purpose, and an array of endpoint objects each with path, HTTP method, tags, description, input schema, output schema, and usage examples — effectively a self-describing API manifest.
Example use cases
Discovering available math tools
“Before I start building my workflow, can you explain what the Basic Utils Agent offers — specifically what calculator and statistics operations it supports?”
Exploring unit conversion capabilities
“I need to convert between measurement units in my app — can you fetch the Basic Utils Agent's service description so I can see what unit conversion endpoints it exposes?”
Onboarding to a new utility API
“Give me an overview of everything the Basic Utils Agent can do, including its datetime functions and any example inputs and outputs it lists.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://basic-utils-agent.up.railway.app/explain_serviceWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint as the first call when integrating with the Basic Utils Agent to programmatically discover all available utility operations before invoking specific tools like the calculator or datetime converter. Prefer it over hardcoding endpoint paths, as it returns a live manifest of what the service currently supports.
Side effects
- Service unavailable on Railway deployment (503/502 if cold start or down)
- Empty or partial response if the service manifest is misconfigured
- Payment required error (402) if x402 micropayment of 0.0015 USDC is not attached
- Malformed JSON response if the service is mid-deployment
- Rate limiting if called excessively in a short window
