How this service works
Pay-per-result APIs for agents. No signup. Exact price. Verifiable delivery. USDC on Base + Solana via x402.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the dedented text string, the number of leading spaces that were stripped (stripped field), and a schema identifier (delx/util-dedent-text/v1) confirming the operation type.
Example use cases
Clean indented code snippet for output
“I have this code block that got indented when I copied it out of a function body — can you remove the common leading whitespace so it looks clean? Here's the text: ' def greet():\n print("hello")'”
Normalize pasted document paragraph
“This paragraph was pasted from a document editor and every line starts with 4 spaces. Can you strip the common indentation so it's properly left-aligned? Text: ' The quick brown fox\n jumps over the lazy dog\n every single day.'”
Prepare template text for downstream processing
“Before I send this template to the formatter, I need to dedent it — the whole block has 3 spaces of common indentation. Can you strip that for me? Here it is: ' Dear user,\n Welcome aboard.\n Regards, Team'”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://commerce.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/dedent-text?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a reliable, pay-per-use, no-signup text dedenting utility with verifiable delivery. Ideal for AI agents that occasionally need to normalize indented text blocks without integrating a full text-processing library or managing dependencies. Particularly useful in agent workflows processing code snippets, pasted documents, or template strings that carry incidental indentation.
Side effects
- Missing or empty 'text' field in request body — likely returns a 400 or validation error
- Text with inconsistent indentation where no common prefix exists — result may be unchanged or strip fewer spaces than expected
- Very large text strings may exceed payload limits
- Payment failure via x402 protocol if USDC balance is insufficient or wallet is misconfigured
