Axis Iliad — Codebase Intelligence For Agentic Commerce

Analyze source files directly and generate the full 152-artifact AXIS bundle without using GitHub. Returns snapshot_id plus artifact listing; use this for local, generated, or unsaved code. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Pricing: $3.00 standard, $25 engineer per run (same tiers as analyze_repo). Lite mode is retired — it now returns the free artifact set at no charge. Can return authentication, quota, payment-required, file-limit, or validation errors. Use analyze_repo for GitHub URLs or improve_my_agent_with_axis for recommendation-first agent hardening.

Analyze a GitHub repository and generate 152 structured AXIS artifacts across 21 programs. Returns snapshot_id plus an artifacts listing; use get_artifact to read files and get_snapshot to re-enumerate outputs without re-running analysis. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Use this when the source of truth is a GitHub repo URL. Pricing: $3.00 standard, $25 engineer per repo. Lite mode is retired — it now returns the free artifact set at no charge. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Living Architecture) adds a verified LLM specificity pass: a living-architecture.md whose every architectural claim is grounded in the repo's extracted facts or dropped. This is the paid path for full repo analysis and can return authentication, quota, payment-required, invalid-URL, or GitHub-fetch errors. private repos require a stored GitHub token. Use analyze_files instead for inline file payloads or list_programs/search_and_discover_tools when you are still selecting a workflow.

Assemble a Visa Compelling Evidence 3.0 packet + eligibility verdict for a disputed card-absent-fraud (reason code 10.4) transaction using the real assembleCe3 engine: finds prior undisputed transactions in the caller-supplied history that share >=2 qualified data elements (device_id / ip_address / email / shipping_address / login_id) and fall 120-365 days before the disputed transaction, per CE 3.0 rules. Returns {eligible, qualifying_priors, matched_element_union, rejection_reason?, evidence_packet, caveat} plus a sha256 reproducibility proof. Free, no auth, deterministic, no side effects. HONESTY: CE 3.0 applies to reason code 10.4 ONLY (10.2/10.3 are card-present conditions), and this is ASSEMBLY ONLY — not a submission to VROL/Verifi (use assemble_representment for the Stripe representment path). AXIS does not publish win-rate estimates.

Turn a webhook-ingested dispute (charge.dispute.* events persist DisputeRecords server-side) into a Stripe representment: qualifies CE 3.0 priors from your supplied transaction history (assembleCe3), builds the Stripe `evidence` hash (buildStripeRepresentment), walks the dispute state machine (needs_response → evidence_assembling → evidence_submitted) with a full transition ledger, and — when submit=true and Stripe is configured — submits the evidence through the live Stripe disputes API. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>; metered ($1.00 standard, $0.50 lite) through the standard authorize/capture path — a failed assembly never charges. Returns {dispute, evidence, ce3, ce3_eligible, submitted, disclaimer}. HONESTY: the dispute lifecycle is LIVE on the Stripe rail only; VROL/RDR/CDRN (Verifi/Ethoca) is integration-ready code gated on acquirer provisioning (AXIS_ENABLE_VROL) and never fakes a submission. AXIS does not publish win-rate estimates.

Compare two avatar contracts; returns similarity score and section-level diffs. Status: **planned_proxy** — an estate-flagged proxy is planned (see discover_estate_tools for the sibling's own direct endpoint and price today). Calls return a planned-capability envelope pointing at AXIS Foundry (https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp) as the recommended interim provider. When the estate proxy ships, the dispatch handler swaps in without changing this schema.

Inspect an avatar's contract state and provenance chain. Status: **planned_proxy** — an estate-flagged proxy is planned (see discover_estate_tools for the sibling's own direct endpoint and price today). Calls return a planned-capability envelope pointing at AXIS Foundry (https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp) as the recommended interim provider. When the estate proxy ships, the dispatch handler swaps in without changing this schema.

Verify an export manifest's integrity and optionally check content hash. Status: **planned_proxy** — an estate-flagged proxy is planned (see discover_estate_tools for the sibling's own direct endpoint and price today). Calls return a planned-capability envelope pointing at AXIS Foundry (https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp) as the recommended interim provider. When the estate proxy ships, the dispatch handler swaps in without changing this schema.

Validate an avatar mesh against 38 rules; returns pass/warn/fail counts. Status: **planned_proxy** — an estate-flagged proxy is planned (see discover_estate_tools for the sibling's own direct endpoint and price today). Calls return a planned-capability envelope pointing at AXIS Foundry (https://api.avatar.jonathanarvay.com/mcp) as the recommended interim provider. When the estate proxy ships, the dispatch handler swaps in without changing this schema.

Validate, canonically encode, and optionally Ed25519-sign an AP2 mandate (Intent / Cart / Payment) using the real @axis/ap2 codecs — schema validation (including cart-total arithmetic and intent cross-references), RFC 8785 JCS-style canonical JSON encoding, and detached-JWS EdDSA signing over node:crypto. Pass seed_hex (64 hex chars = 32 bytes) to sign deterministically client-side-supplied key material — AXIS stores no keys; omit it for an unsigned template with encoding only. The signed envelope round-trips through verifyMandate before it is returned. Free, no auth, deterministic (Ed25519 signatures are deterministic per RFC 8032), no side effects. SCOPE HONESTY: conformant to AXIS's TypeScript encoding of the public AP2 mandate schema, verified against self-authored golden vectors — NOT certified against an official AP2 conformance suite or a live network counterparty.

Package an existing AXIS snapshot (create one first via analyze_repo, analyze_files, or prepare_agentic_purchasing) into complete professional packaging + marketplace certification artifacts so a 70-80%-complete project is ready to ship and sell. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key> on an ALREADY-PAID Starter/Pro/Growth (or suite) account. Unlike most metered AXIS tools, a free-tier account cannot unlock this per call with an MPP payment credential — there is no pay-per-call path here, only 'upgrade at iliad.trustfabric.ai/billing'. Once unlocked, billed $1.00 per call from the account's plan credits. Lite mode carries no discount here — the bundle is identical in both modes.

Permanently delete a snapshot and everything derived from it (context map, repo profile, generated artifacts, search index entries). Same account scoping as get_snapshot: an anonymous (never-authenticated) snapshot is freely deletable by any caller, but an account-owned one requires the same Authorization: Bearer <api_key> used to create it — a mismatched or missing key fails with the same not-found error a nonexistent snapshot_id would, so a caller can't learn whether a snapshot they don't own even exists. This cannot be undone. MCP-layer equivalent of DELETE /v1/snapshots/:id.

Generate a zero-pipeline-minutes deploy bundle: stack-aware Dockerfile, .dockerignore, dev compose, render.yaml (Render existing-image), wrangler.pages.toml + wrangler.containers.toml + worker.ts (Cloudflare), bash/PowerShell push scripts, and a qualification report. The project builds locally in VSCode, pushes images to GHCR or via wrangler, and Render/Cloudflare just pulls — no GitHub Actions minutes, no Render build pipeline minutes, no CF build minutes. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key> on an ALREADY-PAID Starter/Pro/Growth (or suite) account. Unlike most metered AXIS tools, a free-tier account cannot unlock this per call with an MPP payment credential — there is no pay-per-call path here, only 'upgrade at iliad.trustfabric.ai/billing'. Once unlocked, billed $1.00 per call from the account's plan credits. Lite mode carries no discount here — the bundle is identical in both modes.

Discover the best AXIS workflow for a purchasing or compliance task. Free, no auth, and logs lightweight task metadata for intent analytics. Example: task_description='prepare for autonomous Visa checkout'. Use this when you need commerce-specific triage and next-step guidance. Use search_and_discover_tools instead for non-commerce keyword routing across all programs.

List sibling AXIS properties (payments via PAI'D, 3D avatar generation via AXIS Foundry, and more) — each entry gives its own MCP endpoint, auth mode, and vendored tool prices, so you can call them directly. Free, no auth, no side effects. Same data as GET /.well-known/axis-estate.json. Use this when the task needs a capability Iliad itself does not own (e.g. payment execution, 3D asset generation).

Read one generated artifact by snapshot_id and path. Requires access to the snapshot and may return snapshot-not-found, invalid-path, or artifact-not-found errors. Example: snapshot_id=abc-123, path=AGENTS.md. Use this when you need the full text of one artifact. Use get_snapshot instead when you first need the artifact list.

Get AXIS install metadata, pricing, and a shareable manifest for onboarding a new integration — MCP endpoint, per-client config for Claude Desktop/Cursor/VS Code, and the full tool catalog with pricing. Free, no auth, and no mutation beyond read access. Example: call before wiring AXIS into an MCP client for the first time. Use this when you need setup/ecosystem details, not tool discovery. Use search_and_discover_tools instead for keyword routing across programs, or discover_agentic_purchasing_needs for purchasing-task triage.

Get or create the caller's AXIS referral token. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>, has no usage charge, and may persist a new referral code if one does not exist yet. Example: call before sharing AXIS with another agent or workspace. Use this when you need the shareable token itself. Use get_referral_credits instead when you need balances, milestones, and discount status.

Get the caller's referral earnings, milestones, and free-call status. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>, has no usage charge, and returns the current discount ledger without creating a new analysis. Example: call after a referral campaign to inspect earned credits. Use this when you need balances and milestones. Use get_referral_code instead when you only need the shareable token.

Retrieve status and the full artifact listing for a prior analysis by snapshot_id. Use this to re-enumerate artifact paths without re-running analysis. Snapshots created with an API key are scoped to that same account — pass the same Authorization: Bearer <api_key> used to create it, or retrieval fails with a not-found error. Only anonymous (never-authenticated) snapshots are freely retrievable by any caller. The response's content_discarded_at is non-null if the owning account's web session has since logged out — source content is gone (closer/deploy/skills/search_index calls on this snapshot will fail with content_discarded until it's re-uploaded), though this call itself still succeeds and generated artifacts remain listable. Use delete_snapshot to permanently remove a snapshot you no longer need.

Run the real 8-check AP2/Visa compliance grading engine (gradeCompliance — the same engine behind computeComplianceGrade and the commerce registry's verified_decisions block) over an inline file set. Each of the 8 validators (SCA/3DS2 readiness, AP2 mandate validity, tokenization posture, CE 3.0 readiness, dispute rail wiring, idempotency/receipt hygiene, budget negotiation, refund/cancel path) is a multi-signal check with weight, evidence trail, and remediation. Returns grade A-D, score, checks_passed/8, the full checks[] detail, detected commerce signals, and a sha256 reproducibility proof. Free, no auth, deterministic, no snapshot persisted. Hard caps: 25 files / 50KB per file / 1MB total. HONESTY: deterministic static source-signal analysis — a checklist starting point, NOT a certification, audit, PCI assessment, or card-network certification.

AXIS-owned product analytics. Two operations: `capture` (insert events) and `query` (aggregations). Capture accepts a single `event` or a batch via `events[]` (max 500). Query kinds: `count` (total events), `count_by_event` (top events by frequency), `distinct_users` (unique user_id count), `count_by_bucket` (time-series with minute/hour/day buckets). All queries support optional `event`, `from_ts`, `to_ts`, and `property_filter` filters. Namespaces are account-scoped server-side (`acct:<account_id>:<namespace>`). Persistent across restarts via Postgres (the shared @axis/snapshots database). Pricing: $0.01 standard, free in lite mode. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Best for funnels, cohorts, and retention on workloads up to ~1M events per account.

AXIS-owned secure code execution. Each call spawns a fresh ephemeral Docker container with hardened isolation: no network, read-only root filesystem, all Linux capabilities dropped, no-new-privileges, PID/memory/CPU limits, tmpfs /tmp only, runs as nobody:nobody. Container is force-removed after each call. Supports python | node | bash via the multi-runtime image `nikolaik/python-nodejs:python3.12-nodejs22-slim` (operator can override via AXIS_CODE_SANDBOX_IMAGE). Returns stdout/stderr/exit_code/timed_out/duration_ms/image. Wall-clock timeout enforced via SIGKILL + force-remove. Source is fed via stdin (no fs write to the read-only root). Code body capped at 256 KiB; stdin at 1 MiB; timeout 1-600 seconds (default 30); stdout/stderr each capped at 1 MiB output. Pricing: $0.05 standard, $0.02 lite — billed whenever a container actually ran, including a timeout or non-zero exit code. Not billed when the call instead returns `_not_configured: true`: no Docker daemon reachable (Render standard services don't expose /var/run/docker.sock), the operator has set AXIS_CODE_SANDBOX_DISABLED=1, or more than AXIS_SANDBOX_MAX_CONCURRENT (default 4) runs are already in flight (reason sandbox_busy — transient, retry shortly). Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Verified Exec, $0.25): the result includes an Ed25519-signed attestation binding code-hash → output-hash + a per-account hash-chain entry, so another agent that pins AXIS's published key can verify the run without re-executing it. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

AXIS-owned document → Markdown extractor. Accepts either `document_url` (https fetch + 50 MiB cap + 60s timeout) or `document_base64` (inline bytes, 50 MiB decoded cap) — exactly one. Optional `mime_type` hint (application/pdf, application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document, text/html, text/markdown, text/plain); we sniff from magic bytes + URL extension when omitted. Format dispatch: PDF → pdfjs-dist text extraction (one block per page with `--- page N ---` separators); DOCX → mammoth → markdown (tables preserved); HTML → tag-strip with heading + list + entity handling (NOT a full HTML→MD converter — bring turndown if you need fancier); plain text + markdown → passthrough. Returns `{markdown, format_detected, byte_size, page_count, table_count, truncated}`. Output capped at 1 MiB markdown with a truncation marker. Pricing: $0.02 standard, $0.01 lite. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Document Intelligence, $0.10): adds an `engineer` block with retrieval chunks (heading-aware, overlapping) + extract-to-caller-schema (pass `json_schema` → a grammar-constrained, validated typed object) + image OCR (image/* via document_base64, capped at 10 MiB — smaller than the 50 MiB document cap; an OCR failure or oversized image returns a descriptive `reason` that may not match the standard-mode enum) — typed data, not just markdown. document_url accepts a signed GET URL minted by iliad_object_storage; chain the extracted markdown into iliad_embeddings + iliad_vector_database to build a RAG index. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

Convert text into dense vectors. Accepts a single string or a batch (max 2048). Returns one vector per input. AXIS-owned in-process inference by default (node-llama-cpp + an embedding-capable GGUF at AXIS_EMBEDDING_MODEL_PATH — no upstream provider call); an optional OpenAI /v1/embeddings backend is available behind AXIS_EMBEDDING_BACKEND=openai (model: text-embedding-3-small by default, overridable via OPENAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL; reports token usage). Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key> to call. Pricing: $0.05 standard, $0.02 lite. When the selected backend is not provisioned (local: GGUF file absent; openai: OPENAI_API_KEY unset), returns a structured `_not_configured: true` envelope naming the backend and remediation, and is not billed. Pairs natively with iliad_vector_database — feed `vectors` from this tool's output into `vector` of the vector_database upsert/query calls. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Domain Embeddings, $0.08): pass `dimensions` (Matryoshka truncation → smaller vectors) and/or `corpus_adapter: true` (mean-center the batch to sharpen retrieval on your data); returns an `engineer` block with the fitted adapter_mean for query alignment.

AXIS-owned workspace hygiene grader. Analyzes an inline file set [{path,content}] and returns a letter grade (A-F) across a closed set of dimensions plus structured findings. Two modes: mode='scan' (DEFAULT, FREE) returns grade + findings (committed-secret scan, .env/secret-file detection, .gitignore gaps for build/scratch artifacts, oversized blobs, stub/placeholder markers, byte-identical duplicate files, source test-peer coverage, TODO/FIXME debt); mode='fix' (METERED, $0.05 standard / $0.02 lite) adds a prioritized remediation plan with ready-to-apply .gitignore additions and per-finding actions. Sending X-Agent-Mode: engineer always bills the fix-mode price, even if mode is 'scan' or omitted. Deterministic, dependency-free, never mutates your repo (fix returns a PLAN). Rules needing a live git checkout/toolchain (worktree pruning, build/vet, governance-source-of-truth checks, route-registration dup-handler analysis, ROI-queue coherence) are reported as repo_only_rules, not run. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Security Engineer, $5): the fix arrives as a git-applyable unified-diff patch (`patch`) + a SARIF 2.1.0 log for CI code-scanning (`sarif`). Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

AXIS-hosted LLM chat-completion via node-llama-cpp + a small GGUF model loaded in-process. Two input shapes accepted: `prompt` (single string) or `messages` (chat-style array of {role, content}). Sampling controls: `max_tokens` (≤2048), `temperature` (0-2), `top_k`, `top_p`, `seed` (threaded through for more deterministic output — NOT a proven byte-identical guarantee; thread count isn't pinned and GGML's multi-threaded matmul reduction order isn't guaranteed bit-exact across runs), `stop` (string[]). Inference runs in-process — no upstream LLM provider call — but this AXIS tool call is still billed: $0.02 standard, $0.01 lite. Operator sets AXIS_LLM_MODEL_PATH to point at a Phi-3-mini / TinyLlama / Llama-3.2-1B GGUF; if missing, the tool returns a `_not_configured: true` envelope and is not billed. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Constrained Inference, $0.10): pass a `json_schema` and decoding is grammar-constrained to it AND the output is validated against it (returns a `structured` block with valid + parsed + schema_errors) — guaranteed-valid structured output. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

Network-tokenization capability. (1) `lifecycle`: an EXECUTABLE TAP-style token-lifecycle state machine (provision → activate → suspend → resume → delete; deleted is terminal; illegal transitions are rejected with an error, not silently accepted) — pure simulation, no real payment method involved. (2) `capabilities` reports which providers are configured (env-derived). (3) `read` and (4) `provision` are TEMPORARILY DISABLED: both would resolve a caller-supplied payment_method_id/pan_source against the platform's Stripe account, and this service has no way yet to verify that id belongs to the calling AXIS account — calling either always returns a structured `_not_configured: true` envelope explaining this, never real payment-method data. (For context once re-enabled: `read`'s underlying Stripe adapter is fully implemented; direct VTS/MDES `provision` is additionally capability-gated behind a network-issued Token Requestor ID — AXIS_VTS_TOKEN_REQUESTOR_ID / AXIS_MDES_TOKEN_REQUESTOR_ID — plus network onboarding, and NEVER fakes a token.) Raw PANs are never accepted even when disabled (pan_source is documented as an opaque reference only). Free (unmetered); requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

AXIS-owned signed-URL minter backed by Cloudflare R2. Returns a pre-signed PUT or GET URL scoped to the calling account (keys are prefixed with `accounts/<account_id>/` server-side, so accounts can't reach each other's objects). Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Returns the URL plus expires_at (ISO 8601), bucket, and scoped_key. Returns `{_not_configured: true, ...}` when the operator has not provisioned R2_* env vars (no crash, no leaked secrets); not billed when not configured. Pricing: $0.01 standard, free in lite mode. TTL is capped at 86400 seconds (24h). Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Managed Bucket, $0.05): adds delete + list + copy (server-side, no bytes through the agent) operations, content-addressed dedup keys (content_sha256), and mint-time PUT policy (pin content_type / exact content_length as signed headers R2 enforces). A signed GET URL minted here can be passed directly as iliad_document_parsing's document_url or iliad_speech_to_text's audio_url.

AXIS-owned audio transcription via whisper.cpp + ffmpeg-static. Accepts either `audio_url` (https URL we fetch, max 100 MiB, 60s download timeout) or `audio_base64` (inline bytes, max 100 MiB decoded) — exactly one. Accepts any audio format ffmpeg can decode (mp3, wav, m4a, opus, ogg, flac); we resample to 16 kHz mono WAV internally. Optional `language` (ISO-639-1 like "en" / "fr" / "ja", or "auto" — default). Optional `initial_prompt` (≤512 chars; biases spelling of rare names). Optional `word_timestamps` boolean. Returns `{text, segments: [{start, end, text}], language_detected, duration_seconds, model_used}`. Pricing: $0.03 standard, $0.01 lite. When operator hasn't installed whisper-cli or placed the GGML model file at AXIS_WHISPER_MODEL_PATH (default `models/ggml-base.en.bin`), returns `{_not_configured: true, reason, detail, remediation}` and is not billed. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Diarization, $0.10): the response adds `diarization` — speaker turns grouped from the segments by inter-segment pause gaps (tune with diarization_gap_seconds / max_speakers; this is pause-based turn segmentation, not acoustic speaker ID). Use iliad_text_to_speech to synthesize speech from text. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

AXIS-owned voice synthesis via Piper (rhasspy/piper) + ffmpeg-static. Accepts `text` (1-5000 chars), optional `voice` slug (filename without extension; defaults to AXIS_PIPER_DEFAULT_VOICE or the first available voice), optional `format` (wav | mp3 | opus; defaults wav), optional `sentence_silence` (0-5 seconds, default 0.2). Returns `{audio_base64, format, voice_used, sample_rate, duration_seconds, byte_size}`. Inference runs in-process — no upstream provider call — but this AXIS tool call is still billed: $0.02 standard, $0.01 lite. When operator hasn't installed piper or placed voice .onnx + .onnx.json files in AXIS_PIPER_VOICE_DIR (default models/piper/), returns `{_not_configured: true, reason, detail, remediation}` and is not billed. format=mp3/opus additionally requires ffmpeg-static. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Brand Voice, $0.10): requires `brand_text` (a brand / voice-and-tone artifact — the call throws without it in engineer mode) and AXIS auto-derives the voice persona (Piper voice slug + sentence pacing) and synthesizes in it; the persona is echoed in the response. Use iliad_speech_to_text to transcribe audio back to text. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

Send a single transactional email. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Provide either body_html, body_text, or both (Resend will pick the best variant per recipient). All emails ship from RESEND_FROM_ADDRESS — operator must verify that domain in Resend before sending. Returns the provider-assigned message_id plus the accepted recipient list. Pricing: $0.02 standard, $0.01 lite. Returns a structured _not_configured envelope when RESEND_API_KEY or RESEND_FROM_ADDRESS is missing, and is not billed. Recipients capped at 50 per call; subject capped at 998 chars; bodies capped at 1 MB. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Deliverability, $0.50): instead of sending, pass a `domain` and get a full SPF/DKIM/DMARC setup (fresh DKIM keypair) + sender warmup schedule + verification checklist — no email sent, no ESP key needed.

AXIS-owned vector store. Two operations: `upsert` (insert or replace vectors) and `query` (cosine top-k nearest neighbors). Namespaces are account-scoped server-side (`acct:<account_id>:<namespace>`), so tenants cannot read each other's vectors. Persistent across restarts via Postgres. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Pricing: $0.01 standard, free in lite mode. Best for RAG retrievers, deduplication, and similarity search. Use iliad_embeddings to turn text into the vectors this tool stores and queries. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Managed Memory, $0.05): query runs a pgvector/HNSW ANN candidate pool with optional recency-decay reranking (recency_half_life_days — managed forgetting), RRF hybrid fusion (sparse_ids), and metadata filter; upsert applies intra-batch semantic-dedup (dedup_threshold).

Scrape a single URL with AXIS's owned crawler (SSRF-guarded fetch, robots.txt-aware, readability extraction — no third-party key) and return markdown-formatted content. Honest scope: fetches static HTML only, no JavaScript rendering, so client-rendered SPA pages may extract thin content. Returns markdown body, extracted metadata, and title. Best for research, documentation reading, or SEO analysis. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Pricing: $0.10 per page. Lite mode carries no discount here — the markdown output is identical in both modes. If the operator's backend configuration is incomplete, this call returns {_not_configured:true} instead of scraping, and is not billed. Use iliad_web_research_crawl for crawling multiple pages or link following. To make a scraped page searchable later, index it with iliad_web_search.

Crawl a domain with AXIS's owned crawler — a same-origin BFS frontier with robots.txt compliance and per-host politeness, no third-party key — and scrape multiple pages. Honest scope: static HTML only, no JavaScript rendering. Returns array of scraped pages with markdown content. Best for site mapping, content audits, or bulk research. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>. Pricing: $0.01/page beyond your account's shared 100-page/month free pool (standard and lite) — a crawl fully covered by the free pool costs $0.00; a fully-paid 100-page crawl costs up to $1.00. If the operator's backend configuration is incomplete, this call returns {_not_configured:true} instead of crawling, and is not billed. Use iliad_web_research for single-page scrapes. To make crawled pages searchable later, index them with iliad_web_search.

AXIS-owned BM25 search engine over the corpus YOUR account has indexed. NOT a Google/Bing scraper — agents build their own searchable index by first calling operation='index' with documents (often pages fetched via iliad_web_research), then querying with operation='search'. Five operations: `index` (insert one or many documents), `search` (BM25 top-k ranked hits with snippet + score + metadata), `delete` (drop one doc), `delete_namespace` (drop all), `count`. Namespaces are account-scoped server-side (`acct:<id>:<namespace>`). Persistent across restarts via Postgres (the shared @axis/snapshots database). Search supports `max_results` (default 10, max 100) and `site` (restrict to a single URL host, case-insensitive). Only operation='search' is billed ($0.01 standard, free in lite mode) — index, delete, delete_namespace, and count are always free. Engineer mode (X-Agent-Mode: engineer — Answer Engine, $0.25): search also returns a grounded extractive answer with [n] citation spans over your corpus, reranked, refusing on weak evidence. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>.

Analyze an agent codebase and return a prioritized AXIS hardening plan. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key> but has no usage charge on any tier — free and unmetered, unlike most AXIS tools. This creates a snapshot and may return auth, quota, file-limit, or validation errors. Example: pass your agent source files to see missing AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and MCP config gaps. Use this when you want recommendations and missing-context detection. Use analyze_files instead when you want the full artifact bundle directly (paid: $3.00 standard).

Inventory mode. List all 21 AXIS programs, their generators, pricing tier, and artifact paths. Free, no auth, and no side effects. Use search_and_discover_tools instead when you only have a keyword, or get_install_manifest when you need install and onboarding metadata.

Exercise the real x402 payment-flow loop at a nominal $0.01 — the cheapest metered call on this server, priced just above $0 so the probe can't be run up for free without limit. Call it once with no payment credential (no auth required) to receive a 402-style payment_required challenge (the exact same shape every real paid tool returns, and requesting it is itself free); retry the same tools/call carrying a payment credential in Authorization (with your API key moved to X-Axis-Key) to settle at $0.01 and get a success envelope. Learn the vocabulary here before paying real money for prepare_agentic_purchasing or analyze_repo. No side effects on any other tool, no real payment rail is ever touched.
