## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to wrap a specific text string in a decorative ASCII box with a configurable style. Ideal for terminal UIs, README formatting, CLI tool output, or any creative text framing task. Prefer this over general ASCII art generators when you specifically want a box/border style around text rather than full image-to-ASCII conversion.

## Known failure modes

- Missing text parameter returns an error or empty box
- Invalid or unsupported style value may default to a basic style or return an error
- Payment failure via x402 micropayment (insufficient USDC balance or wallet not configured) blocks the request
- Network timeout on Vercel serverless cold start
- Overly long text strings may be truncated or cause layout issues

## How this service works

Convert images and text to ASCII art. Pay per conversion via x402 micropayments on Base.

## Output

Returns ASCII art output of the input text enclosed in a drawn box using the specified style (e.g., single-line, double-line, rounded). The response is a styled text block suitable for terminal display or embedding in code output.
