How this service works
Network, docs, image, web, and dev utility tools paid per call via x402. No signup, no API keys, no subscriptions — just USDC on Base.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the host string, a boolean 'reachable' field indicating whether the host responded to the ping, and a 'raw_output' string containing the raw ping command output for diagnostic inspection.
Example use cases
Server uptime health check
“Ping db.mycompany.com and let me know if it's reachable — I want to make sure our database server is responding before I run the deploy.”
Diagnose a potentially down website
“Can you check if news.ycombinator.com is reachable right now? I'm getting timeouts and want to know if it's the host or just me.”
Monitor third-party API availability
“Ping api.stripe.com for me and show me the raw output — I need to verify it's up before my payment integration goes live.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.geekvault.dev/net-tools/v1/ping?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Prefer this endpoint when you need a quick, no-signup network reachability check for a hostname or IP address and want the raw ping output for diagnostics. Ideal for AI agents performing infrastructure health checks, pre-deployment validation, or monitoring tasks without needing to manage API keys or subscriptions — just pay $0.005 USDC per call via x402 on Base.
Side effects
- Host not found or DNS resolution failure — reachable will be false with raw_output showing error
- Host exists but is firewalled against ICMP — reachable may be false even if host is up
- Invalid host input format — may return an error or false reachability
- Network timeout — host may be temporarily unreachable or slow to respond
- Payment failure via x402 — call not executed if USDC payment is not successfully processed
