Example prompt: Can you turn this product name into a dot-separated slug, ASCII-folded and capped at 160 characters: 'Über-Fast Ñoño Coffee Roasters & Co.'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need dot-separated slugs (as opposed to hyphen or underscore slugs) with ASCII folding applied and a 160-character cap. If you do not need to pay and want to test first, prefer the unpaid sandbox at POST /v1/sandbox/slug-dot-160-ascii. Use this paid endpoint for production workloads requiring reliable SLA.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing 'text' field returns a validation error
- Input exceeding 100,000 characters is rejected
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance prevents execution
- Network timeout if the service is temporarily unavailable

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs a slug using ".", capped at 160 characters, ASCII-folded. Exact $0.001 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/slug-dot-160-ascii first.

## Output

Returns a dot-separated slug string derived from the input text, with non-ASCII characters ASCII-folded (e.g. accents stripped or transliterated), spaces and special characters replaced by dots, and the result truncated to a maximum of 160 characters.
