# SHA3-512 Base32 UTF-16LE Digest

> SHA3-512 Base32 UTF-16LE Digest is a paid API for AI agents from agentshelf.syntexa.ch, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).

Computes a SHA3-512 hash of text encoded as UTF-16LE bytes, returning the digest encoded as a Base32 string

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 sha3-512-base32-utf-16le-digest-e43278f0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you compute the SHA3-512 hash of the text 'Hello, World!' treating it as UTF-16LE bytes, and give me the result as a Base32 string?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need a SHA3-512 hash of text encoded as UTF-16LE bytes (common in Windows/Microsoft environments) with the output in Base32 format. Prefer the free sandbox endpoint POST /v1/sandbox/digest-sha3-512-base32-utf16 first if available; use this paid endpoint when the sandbox is unavailable or rate-limited. Use over other digest endpoints when your target system or protocol requires Base32 output and SHA3-512 strength specifically, rather than MD5 or RIPEMD160.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty 'text' field returns a validation error
- Text exceeding 100,000 characters is rejected
- Missing or empty 'key' field may cause an authentication or routing error
- Payment of exactly $0.01 USDC not provided results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed request body returns a 400 Bad Request

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs a sha3-512 digest of utf16le bytes, encoded as base32. Exact $0.01 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/digest-sha3-512-base32-utf16 first.

## Output

Returns a Base32-encoded string representing the SHA3-512 digest computed over the UTF-16LE byte representation of the input text. The response is a deterministic cryptographic hash suitable for integrity checks, fingerprinting, or further processing.

 "type": "object",
 "properties": {
  "key": {
   "type": "string",
   "maxLength": 512,
   "minLength": 1,
   "description": "HMAC secret. Required on HMAC SKUs. Omit it for plain digests and checksums. The key is not stored."
