How this service works
Compute capacity saturation from in-flight work and capacity — call when measuring in-flight work against capacity. Use for SRE/ops math agents buy from broad utility catalogs: SLA, error budget, success rate, and health scores with zero upstream cost. Returns deterministic machine-readable JSON for $0.003 USDC via x402 on Base. Execution is first-party, local-only, stateless, and memory-only with no paid upstream, no input retention, and no claim of live chain tip, web search, or media generat…
Output
A deterministic JSON object containing the computed saturation ratio (in-flight divided by capacity), indicating what fraction of total capacity is currently consumed. Useful as a standalone metric or as an input to composite health scores.
Example use cases
SRE dashboard saturation check
“My service can handle 1000 concurrent requests and right now 780 are in flight — what's the saturation ratio so I can update my ops dashboard?”
Error budget health composite input
“I need the saturation ratio to feed into my ops health score calculation — capacity is 200 and in-flight is 155.”
Capacity headroom alert evaluation
“We're tracking whether to trigger a scale-out alert — compute the saturation ratio for a system with 5000 capacity slots and 4800 currently in use.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/saturation-ratioWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, stateless, zero-dependency computation of capacity saturation with no upstream data calls. Ideal for SRE/ops agents composing health scores from raw telemetry, or when you want deterministic math at minimal cost ($0.003 USDC) without integrating a full observability platform. Prefer over manual calculation when building automated pipelines that need machine-readable JSON output.
Side effects
- Missing required field (capacity or in_flight) returns a validation error
- Capacity value of zero causes a division-by-zero error
- Non-numeric input values return a type error
- Negative values may produce unexpected or invalid ratios
- Payment failure via x402 prevents execution and returns a 402 response
