NAME

Computes cryptographic hash digests of any input string across five algorithms: sha1, sha256 (default), sha384, sha512, and md5. Returns hex, base64, and base64url encodings of each digest. SubtleCrypto powers the SHA family; MD5 is computed by a small in-process implementation (the web crypto spec doesn't expose MD5, but it's still useful for cache keys and content fingerprinting where collision-resistance isn't required). Use it as a string hasher, multi-algorithm digest, cache-key generator, or content fingerprinter for SHA-256 / SHA-1 / SHA-384 / SHA-512 / MD5.
INPUT — request schema
| property | type | description | req? |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | Source text to hash. UTF-8 encoded internally. Max 200,000 chars. | required |
| algorithms | array | Which algorithms to compute. Subset of: sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512, md5. Default ['sha256']. | optional |
OUTPUT — response shape
| field | type | description |
|---|---|---|
| input_chars | number | Length of the input string in characters. |
| input_bytes | number | UTF-8 byte length of the input — equals input_chars for ASCII, larger for multi-byte chars. |
| algorithms | array | Echo of the algorithms used. |
| digests | object | Map from algorithm to { hex, base64, base64url, bytes }. base64url is RFC 4648 §5 (no padding), suitable for URLs and JWTs. |
EXAMPLES — two ways to call
EXAMPLE 1 · curl
curl -X POST https://x402.agentutility.ai/hash-string \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{ }'first response =
402 Payment Required with payment requirements; sign + retry with X-PAYMENT.EXAMPLE 2 · mcp
# Install the MCP package for this endpoint's cluster npx -y @agentutility/mcp-<cluster> # Required: EVM private key with USDC on Base export X402_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... # Then call the hash-string tool from your MCP-aware agent.
MCP server handles payment automatically — your coding agent just calls the tool by name.
