How this service works
Guess MIME type from file extension. Call when you set Content-Type hints for agent uploads. Returns mime, ext, known for $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. No network, no keys, no retention; first-party local JSON only. Results are advisory; the caller owns budgets, auth, and production controls.
Output
Returns a JSON object with three fields: mime (the resolved MIME type string, e.g. 'image/png'), ext (the normalized extension), and known (a boolean indicating whether the extension is recognized in the local lookup table).
Example use cases
Set Content-Type for file upload
“I'm uploading a .xlsx file to an API — what Content-Type header value should I set?”
Validate extension before serving file
“Before I serve this .mp3 file to the browser, can you tell me the correct MIME type so I can set the right response header?”
Check if extension is a recognized type
“Is .avif a known file extension with a defined MIME type, and if so what is it?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/mime-from-extWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, offline-safe, no-auth MIME type lookup for common file extensions at minimal cost ($0.001 USDC). Prefer it over network-based detection when you only have the extension (not the file bytes), or when you need a deterministic advisory hint for setting Content-Type headers before uploads. Not suitable when you need byte-level magic-number detection or must handle hundreds of obscure custom MIME types.
Side effects
- Unknown or obscure extension returns known=false with a generic or null mime value
- Missing ext field in request body causes a validation error
- Misspelled or malformed extension (e.g. including a leading dot unexpectedly) may return unknown result
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents the call from completing
