ACCF/AHA heart-failure stages
ACCF/AHA HF stages
Apply the 2013 ACCF/AHA heart-failure stages (Yancy) from caller-assigned high-risk, structural heart disease, prior or current HF symptoms, and refractory specialized-care flags. Returns hf_stage A, B, C, D, or not_staged.

Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Apply the 2013 ACCF/AHA heart-failure stages (Yancy) from caller-assigned high-risk, structural heart disease, prior or current HF symptoms, and refractory specialized-care flags. Returns hf_stage A, B, C, D, or not_staged.
When to use
When an agent already has the four published stage assignments as booleans and needs the 2013 ACCF/AHA stage. magent does not examine the patient or read an echocardiogram. Not NYHA functional class.
When not to use
- Not a medical device and not a diagnosis of heart failure.
- magent does not examine the patient or read an echocardiogram. The four flags are caller-assigned.
- Stages are progressive and inviolate (Yancy 2013). D if refractory specialized care; else C if structural disease and prior or current symptoms; else B if structural disease without those symptoms; else A if high risk without structural disease or symptoms; else not_staged.
- Not NYHA functional class. This tool does not assign NYHA I-IV.
Formula
hf_stage D if refractory_hf_specialized; else C if structural_heart_disease and hf_symptoms_prior_or_current; else B if structural_heart_disease and not hf_symptoms_prior_or_current; else A if high_risk_for_hf and not structural_heart_disease and not hf_symptoms_prior_or_current; else not_staged (Yancy 2013 ACCF/AHA stages, progressive/inviolate). Not NYHA class

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
high_risk_for_hf |
boolean | required | High risk for HF without structural heart disease or HF symptoms (Yancy 2013 stage A assignment). true or false as assigned by the caller. magent does not examine the patient. |
structural_heart_disease |
boolean | required | Structural heart disease as assigned by the caller (Yancy 2013 stage B or C). true or false. magent does not read an echocardiogram. |
hf_symptoms_prior_or_current |
boolean | required | Prior or current symptoms of HF as assigned by the caller (Yancy 2013 stage C). true or false. magent does not examine the patient. |
refractory_hf_specialized |
boolean | required | Refractory HF requiring specialized interventions as assigned by the caller (Yancy 2013 stage D). true or false. magent does not examine the patient. |
Bulk (POST)
POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.
- 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
- POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
- The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
- HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
- Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
- x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

Payment
Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64
PAYMENT-REQUIRED
header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake
and shared payment errors: Payments.
Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.
Guarantees
- HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged. HTTP 402 never includes the tool JSON.
- exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
- HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
- Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
