# Delx Bool Coerce

> Delx Bool Coerce is a paid API for AI agents from api.delx.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Coerces common truthy/falsy string tokens (e.g. 'yes', 'true', '1', 'off', 'no') into a deterministic boolean JSON result

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 delx-bool-coerce-54f03af6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you coerce the string 'yes' into a proper boolean true/false value for me?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, stateless, deterministic coercion of common truthy/falsy string tokens (yes, no, true, false, 1, 0, on, off) into machine-readable booleans without implementing your own lookup table. Ideal for agent preflight steps, config normalization, and input sanitization pipelines where correctness matters and the cost is negligible.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized token (e.g. an arbitrary string like 'banana') may return an error or null/indeterminate result
- Empty or missing 'value' field returns a validation error
- Non-string input types may not be handled
- Payment failure via x402 prevents execution

## How this service works

Coerce common truthy/falsey tokens into a boolean — first-party local utility for agent preflight and proven micro-utils expansion. Returns deterministic machine-readable JSON for $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. Execution is first-party, local-only, stateless, and memory-only with no paid upstream, no input retention, no web search, no live RPC, and no mediagen. Results are advisory; the caller owns authorization, budgets, and production controls. Sibling of Delx routes that already converted ext…

## Output

A deterministic JSON object indicating whether the input string token resolves to boolean true or false, with no retained state or side effects.
