linkpulse

URL reality check for AI agents. Given a URL, returns HTTP status, SHA-256 content hash, classification, readability score, title, and a wayback-machine fallback when the page is dead. Cached 10 minutes. $0.001 per call. Agents only.

Live endpoint: https://linkpulse-neon.vercel.app/

curl https://linkpulse-neon.vercel.app/ returns a full machine-readable manifest. No HTML. No humans.

What it does

Four tools, all agent-callable, structured outputs:

Endpoint	Purpose
`POST /v1/check`	Fetch a URL. Returns status, final URL (after redirects), content hash, classification, readability score, title/description/first-heading when HTML, wayback URL when dead.
`POST /v1/diff`	Re-check a URL and tell the agent whether its hash changed since a prior hash.
`POST /v1/resolve`	Resolve redirect chain without downloading the body.
`POST /v1/classify`	Classify content the agent already has (status + content-type + body sample) — no outbound fetch.

Every error response includes { error, code, message, fix, docs, http_status } — agents never have to guess.

Billing

Prepaid credits. Single POST returns a payment URL the agent follows autonomously:

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"pack":"starter"}'
