What it computes
Apply Mazzaferro 2009 Up-to-seven criteria and return whether tumor_count plus largest_cm is 7 or less without microvascular invasion (meets_up_to_seven).
When to use
When an agent already has tumor count, largest diameter in centimetres, and a microvascular-invasion flag as in Mazzaferro 2009, and needs the published Up-to-seven eligibility result. magent does not interpret imaging or histology.
When not to use
- Not a medical device.
- Not a transplant listing or organ-allocation order.
- Pathology/explant-style inputs as assigned by the caller. magent does not interpret imaging or histology.
- This tool is Mazzaferro 2009 Up-to-seven criteria only. Not Milan criteria and not Metroticket 2.0 AFP-adjusted-to-HCC-size criteria.
- Not a website contour calculator.
- Does not output a survival percentage. The paper's 71.2% 5-year overall survival subgroup was patients without microvascular invasion who fell within up-to-seven; this tool returns the boolean criteria result only.
Formula
meets_up_to_seven iff size_number_sum <= 7 and not microvascular_invasion; size_number_sum = tumor_count + largest_cm (Mazzaferro 2009 Up-to-seven)

Worked example
Three tumors, largest 4 cm, no microvascular invasion
Given:
largest_cm=4microvascular_invasion=falsetumor_count=3
- tumor_count 3 plus largest_cm 4.0 is size_number_sum 7
- size_number_sum 7 is <= 7 and microvascular_invasion is false
- meets_up_to_seven is true

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
tumor_count |
integer | required | Number of HCC nodules (integer 1-20) as assigned by the caller. Added to largest_cm as size_number_sum. The Up-to-seven ceiling is size_number_sum <= 7. magent does not interpret imaging or histology. |
largest_cm |
number | required | Largest tumor diameter in centimetres (0.1-30) as assigned by the caller. Added to tumor_count as size_number_sum. Equality at 7.0 meets; 7.1 fails. magent does not interpret imaging or histology. |
microvascular_invasion |
boolean | required | Microvascular invasion as assigned by the caller (pathology/explant-style). true fails Up-to-seven even when size_number_sum is 7 or less. true or false. magent does not interpret imaging or histology. |
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.

- Milan — Apply Mazzaferro 1996 Milan criteria and return whether the published size, count, vascular-invasion, and extrahepatic rules all hold (meets_milan).

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.
