Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Sum five caller-assigned MIDAS day counts over the last 3 months and return the 0-450 total and published grades I–IV.
When to use
When an agent has already assigned the five 3-month day counts and needs the published MIDAS total and grade, not a migraine diagnosis, treatment order, GAD-7, or PHQ-9.
When not to use
- Not a medical device and not a migraine diagnosis.
- missed_work_days, reduced_work_days, missed_household_days, reduced_household_days, and missed_social_days are caller-assigned integers 0-90 for the last 3 months. magent does not assign the counts or de-duplicate reduced days from missed days.
- magent does not include MIDAS questions A (headache days) or B (pain 0-10) in the score.
- Published grades used with this instrument: Grade I 0-5 little/minimal, Grade II 6-10 mild, Grade III 11-20 moderate, Grade IV ≥21 severe. Not a triptan or prophylaxis treatment order. Not GAD-7. Not PHQ-9.
Formula
MIDAS = missed_work_days + reduced_work_days + missed_household_days + reduced_household_days + missed_social_days; each caller-assigned integer 0-90 (last 3 months); max 450; magent does not include questions A or B; grades I 0-5 little/minimal, II 6-10 mild, III 11-20 moderate, IV ≥21 severe

Worked example
All day counts 0
Given:
missed_household_days=0missed_social_days=0missed_work_days=0reduced_household_days=0reduced_work_days=0
- missed_work_days 0 + reduced_work_days 0 + missed_household_days 0 + reduced_household_days 0 + missed_social_days 0
- Score = 0 (max 450); midas_grade I (little/minimal)
Worked example score 12
Given:
missed_household_days=3missed_social_days=3missed_work_days=2reduced_household_days=2reduced_work_days=2
- missed_work_days 2 + reduced_work_days 2 + missed_household_days 3 + reduced_household_days 2 + missed_social_days 3
- Score = 12 (max 450); midas_grade III (moderate)
Grade IV cut at 21
Given:
missed_household_days=0missed_social_days=0missed_work_days=21reduced_household_days=0reduced_work_days=0
- missed_work_days 21 + reduced_work_days 0 + missed_household_days 0 + reduced_household_days 0 + missed_social_days 0

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
missed_work_days |
integer | required | Caller-assigned MIDAS item 1 (integer 0-90): days of missed paid work or school in the last 3 months. magent does not assign the count. |
reduced_work_days |
integer | required | Caller-assigned MIDAS item 2 (integer 0-90): days work or school productivity was reduced by half or more in the last 3 months. Do not double-count days already in missed_work_days; the caller assigns the count. magent does not de-duplicate days. |
missed_household_days |
integer | required | Caller-assigned MIDAS item 3 (integer 0-90): days household work was not done in the last 3 months. magent does not assign the count. |
reduced_household_days |
integer | required | Caller-assigned MIDAS item 4 (integer 0-90): days household productivity was reduced by half or more in the last 3 months. Do not double-count days already in missed_household_days; the caller assigns the count. magent does not de-duplicate days. |
missed_social_days |
integer | required | Caller-assigned MIDAS item 5 (integer 0-90): days of missed family, social, or leisure activities in the last 3 months. magent does not assign the count. |
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.

MIDAS needs five 3-month day counts (work missed, work ≥50% reduced, household missed, household ≥50% reduced, social missed). Returned before settlement; you are not charged. |
| 400 | invalid_midas_days |
each MIDAS day count must be an integer from 0 to 90 (last 3 months). 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. |

- GAD-7 — Sum seven caller-assigned Spitzer 2006 GAD-7 integers (0-3) and return the published 0-21 total, 5/10/15 severity cuts, and ≥10 case-finding flag.

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.
