# x402 Utility Tools – CSV Clean

> x402 Utility Tools – CSV Clean is a paid API for AI agents from x402-utils.558686.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.0001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-23).

Cleans a raw CSV string by trimming whitespace and deduplicating rows, returning normalized rows, headers, row count, and any detected issues.

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 x402-utility-tools-csv-clean-4c15342c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Clean up this CSV for me — trim all the whitespace from headers and values, and remove any duplicate rows: ' Name , Price \n Alice , $0.01 \n Alice , $0.01 '

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a cheap, deterministic, non-LLM CSV normalization step — trimming whitespace and deduplicating rows — before passing tabular data to heavier or more expensive processing stages. It is ideal for ETL pipelines, data validation gates, and agent workflows that ingest user-uploaded or scraped CSV data with unknown formatting quality.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed or non-UTF8 CSV input may cause parsing errors
- Empty CSV string returns zero rows with no headers
- Extremely large CSV strings may hit payload size limits
- Missing required 'csv' field returns a validation error
- Boolean flags passed as strings instead of booleans may be rejected

## How this service works

A compact x402 utility surface for agents that need cheap, repeatable non-LLM transformations before spending on heavier routes: CSV cleanup, JSON Schema checks, timestamp conversion, JWT decode, URL normalization, hashes, codecs, and text utilities.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with ok=true, the tool name ('csv-clean'), the cleaned rows array, a headers object, the final rowCount after deduplication, and an issues string describing any anomalies detected in the input CSV.
