-d '{"text1":"...","text2":"..."}'
# -> 402 Payment Required, with an x402 payment challenge in the response body
Any x402-aware client (@x402/fetch, x402-agent-tools, ATXP) handles the 402 -> sign -> retry cycle automatically.
Tools
| Tool | Method | Path | Price | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
text_compare_diff | POST | /api/diff | $0.005 | Compare two texts and show line-by-line differences |
text_compare_diff
Use this when you need to compare two pieces of text and identify exactly what changed between them. Returns a structured line-by-line diff with summary statistics.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
text1 | string | yes | The original text (base) |
text2 | string | yes | The modified text to compare against |
Example response:
{"changes":[{"type":"unchanged","content":"line 1"},{"type":"removed","content":"old line 2"},{"type":"added","content":"new line 2"}],"linesAdded":1,"linesRemoved":1,"linesUnchanged":1,"similarity":66.7}
When to use: code review (comparing before/after), tracking document revisions, verifying config file changes, or auditing template modifications. Use this BEFORE deploying config changes to understand what differs.
Not for: text classification (use text_classify_content), sentiment analysis (use text_analyze_sentiment), word counting (use text_count_words).

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
