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

What it computes

Rank a natural-language drug, diagnosis, or lab phrase to current RxNorm, ICD-10-CM, or LOINC codes from the local catalog.

When to use

When an agent must not hallucinate or invent a billing or pharmacy code. Pay-per-request; empty matches is a valid paid 200.

When not to use

• ICD-10 in this product means ICD-10-CM (US claims), not WHO ICD-10.
• Production coverage is Current Prescribable RxNorm + ICD-10-CM + LOINC (gold-gated full). Not complete monthly RxNorm or UMLS.
• Not a billing submission and not a medical device. Do not send names or MRNs.

Formula

Rank local catalog matches by token/prefix score; return current RxNorm, ICD-10-CM, or LOINC. Empty matches is a valid paid 200.

Worked example

Try

Opens the live endpoint. Unpaid browser requests show the paywall; agents should send Accept: application/json.

/api/codes/search?query=Tylenol%20500mg&system=rxnorm

Full URL: https://api.magentlab.com/api/codes/search?query=Tylenol%20500mg&system=rxnorm

x402 V2 curl

Expect HTTP 402 and a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header until you retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Incomplete query params return HTTP 400 before any quote or charge.

curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" "https://api.magentlab.com/api/codes/search?query=Tylenol%20500mg&system=rxnorm"

Cursor mcp.json

Intended config for @magent/mcp. This is not npm @x402/fetch (a payment fetch wrapper).

  "mcpServers": {
    "magent": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@magent/mcp"

}

Parameters

Bulk (POST)

POST the same path with a JSON items array. Price is n times the GET unit. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.

POST /api/codes/search Max 25 unit_amount * n PREVIEW

• 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
• 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 (fixture)

{
  "items": [
    {
      "query": "Tylenol 500mg",
      "system": "rxnorm"
    },
    {
      "query": "Tylenol 500mg",
      "system": "rxnorm"
    }
  ]
}

Open bulk paywall →

Opens a two-item fixture on the API host. Unpaid browsers get the same MetaMask paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with those items.

Payment

Required query parameters must be present and valid. 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. Retry the same URL with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Settlement completes before the tool runs. Full handshake and shared payment errors: Payments.

Guarantees

• Invalid query parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged.
• Settlement finishes before the tool executes. Uncertain settlement fails closed (HTTP 503).
• Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
• Calculator inputs are not persisted. Request logs store path without query.
