Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.

What it computes

Return the Bishop 1964 pelvic score as the sum of five caller-assigned integer components (dilation, effacement, station, consistency, position).

When to use

When an agent already has Bishop 1964 component points and needs the published total. magent does not examine the cervix or assign the five components from a narrative.

When not to use

Not a medical device and not a cervical exam, induction order, or labor-progress decision. magent does not examine the cervix.
Inputs are caller-assigned Bishop 1964 point integers (dilation 0-3, effacement 0-3, station 0-3, consistency 0-2, position 0-2), not centimeters, percent, or station in centimeters. Paper bins: dilation 0 / 1-2 / 3-4 / 5-6 cm; effacement 0-30 / 40-50 / 60-70 / 80%; station -3 / -2 / -1 or 0 / +1 or +2; consistency firm/medium/soft; position posterior/mid/anterior.
Bishop 1964 total is 0-13. magent does not add later favorable/unfavorable cutoffs, modified Bishop, cervical length, or nulliparous extensions.

Formula

Bishop = dilation + effacement + station + consistency + position; caller-assigned integers 0-3, 0-3, 0-3, 0-2, 0-2; max 13

Worked example

Dilation 2, effacement 2, station 1, consistency 1, position 1

Given: consistency=1dilation=2effacement=2position=1station=1

dilation 2 + effacement 2 + station 1 + consistency 1 + position 1
Score = 7 (max 13)

All zeros

Given: consistency=0dilation=0effacement=0position=0station=0

dilation 0 + effacement 0 + station 0 + consistency 0 + position 0
Score = 0 (max 13)

Maximum published score

Given: consistency=2dilation=3effacement=3position=2station=3

dilation 3 + effacement 3 + station 3 + consistency 2 + position 2
Score = 13 (max 13)

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`dilation`	integer	required	Caller-assigned Bishop 1964 dilation points 0-3 (paper bins: 0 cm → 0; 1-2 cm → 1; 3-4 cm → 2; 5-6 cm → 3). magent does not measure dilation.
`effacement`	integer	required	Caller-assigned Bishop 1964 effacement points 0-3 (paper bins: 0-30% → 0; 40-50% → 1; 60-70% → 2; 80% → 3). magent does not measure effacement.
`station`	integer	required	Caller-assigned Bishop 1964 station points 0-3 (paper bins: -3 → 0; -2 → 1; -1 or 0 → 2; +1 or +2 → 3). magent does not assign station.
`consistency`	integer	required	Caller-assigned Bishop 1964 consistency points 0-2 (paper bins: firm → 0; medium → 1; soft → 2). magent does not palpate the cervix.
`position`	integer	required	Caller-assigned Bishop 1964 position points 0-2 (paper bins: posterior → 0; mid → 1; anterior → 2). magent does not examine cervical position.

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.

POST /api/calc/bishop Max 25 unit_amount + extra_item_amount * (n - 1) extra $0.002 PREVIEW

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.

  "items": [
    {
      "consistency": "1",
      "dilation": "2",

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.
