Operations 7

Each operation below carries the questions people ask an LLM about it and the instructions they give an agent to run it. Generated by API Evangelist overlay

GET /pay List the paid operations and their docs · Pay Index #

Ask an LLM

“Which pay-per-use operations are available and where are their docs?”

“Is there a discovery index an agent can read for the paid door?”

Tell an agent

Show the index of paid operations.

List every pay-per-use op with a link to its docs.

GET /pay/openapi.json Get the pay manifest at its legacy /pay path · Pay Openapi Manifest #

Ask an LLM

“Does the older /pay/openapi.json link still serve the pay manifest?”

“Can I fetch the MPP manifest from under the /pay path instead of the root?”

Tell an agent

Fetch the pay manifest from the /pay/openapi.json alias.

Download the legacy-path copy of the pay-per-use OpenAPI manifest.

GET /pay/llms.txt Get the llms.txt for the pay door · Pay Llms Txt #

Ask an LLM

“Is there an llms.txt that tells agents the starting prices for paid ops?”

“Where can an LLM read a short summary of the pay-per-use door?”

Tell an agent

Fetch the pay door llms.txt.

Read the agent-facing llms.txt with from-prices and links.

GET /pay/pricing Get the public price list under /pay · Pay Pricing Alias #

Ask an LLM

“What does each pay-per-use operation cost, listed next to the quote endpoint?”

“Is the /pay/pricing list the same as the main price list?”

Tell an agent

Show the price list at /pay/pricing.

Get the pay door's public prices.

POST /pay/quote Inspect a PDF's exact price before paying · Pay Quote #

Ask an LLM

“How many pages does my PDF have and is it already fillable, before I pay?”

“Is the pay quote throttled per IP address?”

Tell an agent

Inspect {file} and quote the price of every op.

Quote a structured fill of {file} with values {values}.

POST /pay/{op} Pay for and run a named PDF operation · Pay #

Ask an LLM

“How do I pay for and run one operation, like fill or fax, by its name?”

“What error format comes back when a paid operation is rejected?”

Tell an agent

Pay for and run op {op} on {file}.

Run paid op {op} on {file} with values {values}.

GET /pay/jobs/{job_id} Poll a paid job's status for free · Pay Job Status #

Ask an LLM

“How do I check on a paid job without paying again or having an account?”

“Which token do I need to poll a pay-door job?”

Tell an agent

Poll paid job {job_id} with token {token}.

Check whether pay-door job {job_id} has finished.
