# DDG Base64 Codec

> DDG Base64 Codec is a paid API for AI agents from agents.daedalusdevelopmentgroup.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-15).

Encodes or decodes data using Base64 via a machine-payable HTTP endpoint, returning the transformed result for $0.001 USDC per call.

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 ddg-base64-codec-c5174285 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you Base64-encode the string 'Hello, World!' for me using the DDG codec service?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a simple, cheap ($0.001 USDC), machine-payable Base64 encode/decode operation with x402 micropayment support — particularly in automated agent pipelines where paying per-call via USDC on-chain is preferred over managing API keys or subscriptions.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed input body returns an error response
- Missing required fields (input, output) causes a 400-style rejection
- Payment failure via x402 results in a 402 response before processing begins
- Unsupported bodyType or HTTP method enum value causes request rejection
