Delx Seeded Pairing
x402
Delx Seeded Pairing 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).
Deterministically pairs a list of participants using a seed string, returning stable bracket-style pairings and a bye participant if the count is odd.

How this service works
Seeded Pairing: Seeded Pairing creates reproducible non-overlapping pairs and reports an optional bye from bounded caller-supplied values without an external provider. Call Seeded Pairing when an agent needs a reproducible decision that another run can independently replay. Returns the deterministic selection plus seed provenance, population bounds, and the operation-specific outcome for Seeded Pairing as versioned deterministic JSON. Price: $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. First-party, stateless,…
Output
Returns a JSON object with a 'pairs' array of two-element arrays (each pair of matched participants), an optional 'bye' field identifying the unpaired participant if the count is odd, plus evidence metadata including whether input was retained (always false), the SHA-256 of the input, and the count of external calls made (always 0).
Example use cases
Tournament bracket assignment
“I have 8 players for a chess tournament: Magnus, Hikaru, Fabiano, Ding, Anish, Wesley, Levon, and Ian. Use the seed 'chessopen-qf' to pair them into first-round matchups.”
Hackathon team pairing
“We have 7 teams in our hackathon — Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta — and need to pair them for peer code reviews. Use the seed 'hackathon-2025-review1' to generate the pairings.”
Agent task assignment
“I have 6 worker agents — agent-A, agent-B, agent-C, agent-D, agent-E, agent-F — that need to be paired for a cross-check workflow. Use the seed 'cross-check-run-42' to assign the pairs.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/seeded-pairingWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need deterministic, reproducible participant pairings given a fixed seed — ideal for tournament brackets, agent task assignment, peer review scheduling, or any scenario where you need stable pairings that can be regenerated identically from the same inputs. Prefer it over random shuffling when auditability or reproducibility matters, since the SHA-256 evidence hash lets you verify the exact input used. It processes entirely in-memory with no data retention, making it suitable for sensitive participant lists.
Side effects
- Empty participants list returns no pairs
- Participants list exceeding 256 items is rejected
- Seed string exceeding 8192 characters is rejected
- Malformed JSON body returns a 400-level error
- Network timeout if the service is temporarily unavailable
