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

## What it computes

Sum the ten Sullivan 1989 CIWA-Ar items (nine caller-assigned 0-7 plus orientation 0-4) and return the published total (max 67).

## When to use

When an agent has already assigned Sullivan 1989 item integers and needs the published CIWA-Ar total, not a later benzodiazepine protocol cutoff.

## When not to use

- Not a diagnosis and not a benzodiazepine, symptom-triggered, or treatment order.
- Items are caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 integers. magent does not observe the patient.
- Nine items (nausea_vomiting, tremor, paroxysmal_sweats, anxiety, agitation, tactile, auditory, visual, headache) are 0-7. orientation is 0-4 and is not a 0-7 item.
- Sullivan 1989 published the instrument and item ranges only. magent does not apply later protocol treatment cutoffs.

## Formula

```
CIWA-Ar = nausea_vomiting + tremor + paroxysmal_sweats + anxiety + agitation + tactile + auditory + visual + headache + orientation; nine items 0-7, orientation 0-4; max 67
```

## Worked example

### All items 0

Given: `agitation=0, anxiety=0, auditory=0, headache=0, nausea_vomiting=0, orientation=0, paroxysmal_sweats=0, tactile=0, tremor=0, visual=0`

1. nausea_vomiting 0 + tremor 0 + paroxysmal_sweats 0 + anxiety 0 + agitation 0 + tactile 0 + auditory 0 + visual 0 + headache 0 + orientation 0
2. Score = 0 (max 67)

## Parameters

- `nausea_vomiting` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 nausea and vomiting points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `tremor` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 tremor points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `paroxysmal_sweats` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 paroxysmal sweats points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `anxiety` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 anxiety points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `agitation` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 agitation points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `tactile` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 tactile disturbances points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `auditory` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 auditory disturbances points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `visual` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 visual disturbances points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `headache` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 headache / fullness in head points (integer 0-7). magent does not observe the patient.
- `orientation` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Sullivan 1989 orientation and clouding of sensorium (integer 0-4). This item is not 0-7. magent does not observe 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.

Method: `POST /api/calc/ciwa_ar`
Max items: 25
Price: unit_amount + extra_item_amount * (n - 1) (unit 5000 atomic, extra 2000 atomic)
Status: 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.

Example request:

```json
{
  "items": [
    {
      "agitation": "0",
      "anxiety": "0",
      "auditory": "0",

## Errors

- HTTP 400 `invalid_ciwa_item`: nausea_vomiting, tremor, paroxysmal_sweats, anxiety, agitation, tactile, auditory, visual, and headache must each be an integer from 0 to 7 (Sullivan 1989). Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
- HTTP 400 `invalid_ciwa_orientation`: orientation must be an integer from 0 to 4 (Sullivan 1989). Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
- HTTP 400 `invalid_items`: POST body must be a JSON object with only an items array Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
- HTTP 400 `invalid_item_count`: items must be an array of 1 to 25 objects Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
- HTTP 400 `invalid_item`: each items entry must be a JSON object Returned before settlement; you are not charged.

## 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.

- GET the tool with Accept: application/json (do not send Accept: text/html unless you want the human paywall).
- HTTP 402 means you have not paid. Decode the base64 PAYMENT-REQUIRED header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote.
- Sign accepts[0] (exact, EIP-3009) with validBefore = now + maxTimeoutSeconds (600 seconds), or accepts[1] (batch-settlement deposit/voucher) on product GET. Ping and POST {items} stay exact. Magent retries transient facilitator 429/5xx before answering.
- Retry the same URL with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE (base64 JSON echoing accepted, payload, and extensions when present).
- Success is HTTP 200 JSON plus PAYMENT-RESPONSE. exact settles before the tool. batch-settlement verifies (and deposit-settles) before the tool and commits the charge after HTTP 2xx. HTTP 503: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Mint a new exact nonce only after a new HTTP 402.

- offered `exact` on eip155:8453: Fixed-price USDC on Base. The buyer authorizes the advertised amount (EIP-3009). magent settles before the tool runs (paymentFlow upfront). extra.assetTransferMethod=eip3009 extra.paymentFlow=upfront.
- offered `batch-settlement` on eip155:8453: Payment-channel vouchers claimed later in batches. Exact stays accepts[0]. Same-path POST {items} is still exact. extra.assetTransferMethod=eip3009 extra.paymentFlow=authorization.

- not offered `upto`: Not offered. Usage-based: buyer authorizes a ceiling, seller settles the actual amount after work. Reserved for a future metered tool. Not for current calculators or code search.

Same-path POST {items} is still scheme exact: one EIP-3009 authorization for GET unit plus $0.002 per extra item. That is not x402 batch-settlement (payment channels / vouchers).

Stdio MCP (one process per host): https://magentlab.com/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.
- 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.
