# Delx Score Clip

> Delx Score Clip is a paid API for AI agents from api.delx.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Clips a numeric score into a caller-specified inclusive [min, max] range, returning a deterministic clamped value as JSON

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-score-clip-20db711a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Clip the score 147.3 into the inclusive range of 0 to 100 for me.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a stateless, deterministic numeric clamping operation without any external dependencies or live data feeds — ideal for signal preprocessing pipelines, ML output sanitization, or any scenario where you need guaranteed bounds on a scalar value without spinning up local compute or trusting a complex transformation service.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (score, min, or max) result in a validation error
- min greater than max causes an invalid range error
- Non-numeric inputs to score/min/max return a type error
- Payment failure via x402 returns a 402 response before processing

## How this service works

Clip a score into an inclusive numeric range — call when clipping a score into an inclusive range. Use on caller-supplied ticks/returns when agents need signal prep without a licensed live market feed (ottoai-class demand, first-party transform). 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 generation. R…

## Output

A deterministic JSON object containing the clipped numeric value — the input score clamped to the inclusive [min, max] range. If the score is within bounds it is returned unchanged; if below min it returns min; if above max it returns max.
