What it computes

Apply the Davis 2017 HEAVEN criteria from six caller-assigned flags and return high_risk iff any is true, plus the count of criteria met (0-6).

When to use

When an agent already has the six Davis 2017 HEAVEN flags (hypoxemia, extremes of size, anatomic challenges, vomit/blood/fluid, exsanguination, limited neck mobility) and needs whether any published difficult-airway criterion is present. magent does not measure SpO2 or examine the airway.

When not to use

  • Not a medical device.
  • Not an intubation order.
  • magent does not measure SpO2 or examine the airway. The caller assigns the six flags.
  • Not Mallampati, not EGRI.

Formula

high_risk iff hypoxemia or extremes_of_size or anatomic_challenges or vomit_blood_fluid or exsanguination or neck_mobility_limited; low_risk iff not high_risk; criteria_met is the count of those six flags that are true (Davis 2017 HEAVEN; high_risk iff any of six caller-assigned flags)

Worked example

All six flags false (low_risk, criteria_met 0)

Given: anatomic_challenges=falseexsanguination=falseextremes_of_size=falsehypoxemia=falseneck_mobility_limited=falsevomit_blood_fluid=false

  1. hypoxemia false
  2. extremes_of_size false
  3. anatomic_challenges false
  4. vomit_blood_fluid false
  5. exsanguination false
  6. neck_mobility_limited false
  7. high_risk_any is false; high_risk is false; low_risk is true; criteria_met is 0

Hypoxemia only (high_risk, criteria_met 1)

Given: anatomic_challenges=falseexsanguination=falseextremes_of_size=falsehypoxemia=trueneck_mobility_limited=falsevomit_blood_fluid=false

  1. hypoxemia true is a HEAVEN flag
  2. The other five flags are false
  3. high_risk_any is true; high_risk is true; low_risk is false; criteria_met is 1

All six flags true (high_risk, criteria_met 6)

Given: anatomic_challenges=trueexsanguination=trueextremes_of_size=truehypoxemia=trueneck_mobility_limited=truevomit_blood_fluid=true

  1. Each of the six flags is true
  2. high_risk_any is true; high_risk is true; low_risk is false; criteria_met is 6

Call

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

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
hypoxemia boolean required Hypoxemia (SpO2 ≤93% at initial laryngoscopy) as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not measure SpO2.
extremes_of_size boolean required Extremes of size (pediatric ≤8 years or clinical obesity) as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not examine the patient or assign age.
anatomic_challenges boolean required Anatomic challenges that limit laryngoscopy as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not examine the airway.
vomit_blood_fluid boolean required Vomit, blood, or fluid in the pharynx or hypopharynx as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not examine the airway.
exsanguination boolean required Exsanguination (suspected anemia that would accelerate desaturation) as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not assay hemoglobin.
neck_mobility_limited boolean required Limited neck mobility as assigned by the caller (Davis 2017). true is a HEAVEN flag. magent does not examine the neck.

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/heaven 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.

Invalid params return 400 without charge. Shared HTTP 402 and 503 meanings: Payments.

HTTP Code When
400 invalid_flag boolean clinical flags must be true or false Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
400 invalid_items POST body must be a JSON object with only an items array Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
400 invalid_item_count items must be an array of 1 to 25 objects Returned before settlement; you are not charged.
400 invalid_item each items entry must be a JSON object Returned before settlement; you are not charged.

Related tools

  • Mallampati — Return the Samsoon 1987 modified Mallampati class 1-4 from a caller-assigned integer, with a stable label.
  • EGRI — Sum the El-Ganzouri 1996 simplified airway risk index (seven 0/1/2 items; max 12) and return high_risk when the score is 4 or more.
  • Aldrete — Compute the Aldrete 1970 postanesthetic recovery score as the sum of five caller-assigned 0-2 signs (activity, respiration, circulation, consciousness, color) and return the 1970 recovery-room band.

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.
