Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Sum four caller-assigned Schroeder 1987 ulcerative colitis disease-activity index items (each integer 0-3) and return the total (max 12). Does not return later remission or activity bands.
When to use
When an agent has already assigned Schroeder 1987 stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician global integers and needs the four-item total, not a diagnosis, later Mayo cutoffs, PUCAI, or the Mayo SPN nodule model.
When not to use
- Not a medical device and not a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis or a treatment order.
- Each of the four items is a caller-assigned integer 0-3 from Schroeder 1987. magent does not count stools, examine the patient, or perform endoscopy.
- Schroeder 1987 did not publish remission, mild, moderate, or severe cutoffs for the total score. magent returns score and max_score only and does not apply later Mayo or partial-Mayo bands.
- Full four-item disease-activity index including endoscopy. Not PUCAI and not the Mayo Clinic solitary-pulmonary-nodule model.
Formula
Mayo DAI = stool_frequency + rectal_bleeding + endoscopy + physician_global; Schroeder 1987 caller-assigned integers 0-3 each; max 12; no published total-score activity bands

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
stool_frequency |
integer | required | Caller-assigned Schroeder 1987 stool frequency (integer 0-3): 0 normal number of stools for this patient; 1 = 1-2 stools/day more than normal; 2 = 3-4 more; 3 = 5 or more more than normal. magent does not count stools. |
rectal_bleeding |
integer | required | Caller-assigned Schroeder 1987 rectal bleeding (integer 0-3): 0 none; 1 streaks of blood with stool less than half the time; 2 obvious blood with stool most of the time; 3 blood alone passed. magent does not examine the patient. |
endoscopy |
integer | required | Caller-assigned Schroeder 1987 endoscopy / flexible proctosigmoidoscopy (integer 0-3): 0 normal or inactive; 1 mild (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability); 2 moderate (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions); 3 severe (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration). magent does not perform endoscopy. |
physician_global |
integer | required | Caller-assigned Schroeder 1987 physician's global assessment (integer 0-3): 0 normal; 1 mild; 2 moderate; 3 severe. 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.

| 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. |

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.
