Test, validate and explain regular expressions with match highlighting. x402 micropayment.

Server endpointStreamable HTTPNo authProbed

Registry lists this as SSE; the live endpoint answered over Streamable HTTP.

This is the third-party server itself — Odel doesn't run it. Hitting this URL directly talks straight to the upstream server with no auth or proxying. Connect through Odel to front it with managed auth.

Regex Tester API

MCP Server x402 License: MIT

Test regex patterns against strings. Get all matches, capture groups, positions, and plain-English pattern explanations. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base L2) -- no API key, no signup, no rate-limit wall.

Part of the klymax402 marketplace -- 100 x402 micropayment APIs for AI agents, one wallet, USDC on Base.

Quickstart -- MCP

Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, ElizaOS, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "regex-generator": {
      "url": "https://regex-generator.api.klymax402.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Quickstart -- HTTP (x402)

curl -X POST "https://regex-generator.api.klymax402.com/api/test" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"pattern":"...","testStrings":"..."}'
# -> 402 Payment Required, with an x402 payment challenge in the response body

Any x402-aware client (@x402/fetch, x402-agent-tools, ATXP) handles the 402 -> sign -> retry cycle automatically.

Tools

ToolMethodPathPriceDescription
text_test_regexPOST/api/test$0.003Test a regex pattern against input strings

text_test_regex

Use this when you need to test a regular expression against one or more strings. Returns all matches, capture groups, positions, and a human-readable explanation of the pattern.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
patternstringyesRegular expression pattern (without delimiters)
flagsstringnoRegex flags: g, i, m, s, u (default: g)
testStringsarrayyesArray of strings to test against the pattern

Example response:

{"pattern":"\d{3}-\d{4}","flags":"g","explanation":"Matches 3 digits, a hyphen, then 4 digits","results":[{"input":"Call 555-1234","matched":true,"matches":[{"value":"555-1234","index":5,"groups":[]}]}],"totalMatches":1}

When to use: validating regex patterns before deploying them in code, debugging why a pattern fails to match, or extracting structured data from text. Use this BEFORE writing complex regex into production code.

Not for: text classification (use text_classify_content), PII detection (use privacy_detect_pii), text comparison (use text_compare_diff).
