# currency_format Money formatting and math with CLDR data (ICU 78 / CLDR 48, matches Intl.NumberFormat): format an amount for any of 60 locales and 154 active ISO 4217 currencies (symbol, narrow symbol or code; standard or accounting negatives; Indian lakh grouping, Swiss apostrophes, RTL marks), round with 9 modes or cash rounding (CHF 0.05), parse a formatted string such as "1.234,56 €" or "(US$1,234.50)" back to an exact amount and currency, split an amount by ratios without losing a cent (largest remainder) and look up currency or country info (digits, symbols, cash rounding, countries). Exact decimal arithmetic, no floats. Price: $0.001 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana).

Risk signals: High parameter count (12 properties) ## Use case AI agents call currency_format to retrieve information from ScorpTech x402 API without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches ScorpTech x402 API: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "currency_format": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on ScorpTech x402 API (1011) - `collatz_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/collatz-drop.md - `dedupe_records` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/dedupe-records.md - `evm_selector_decode` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/evm-selector-decode.md - `frames_timecode` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/frames-timecode.md - `ip_reputation` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/ip-reputation.md - `led_resistor` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/led-resistor.md - `ruler_odd` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/ruler-odd.md - `sql_format` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/sql-format.md - `timecode_diff` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/timecode-diff.md - `timecode_duration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/timecode-duration.md - `timecode_frames` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/timecode-frames.md - `abi_encode` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/abi-encode.md - `apery_term` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/apery-term.md - `ballot` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/ballot.md - `baum_sweet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/baum-sweet.md - `binom` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/binom.md - `bit_subset` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/bit-subset.md - `biunitary_sigma` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/biunitary-sigma.md - `champernowne_start` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/champernowne-start.md - `clinical_trials` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/clinical-trials.md - `coin_min` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/coin-min.md - `coin_ways` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/coin-ways.md - `color_palette` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/color-palette.md - `compound_interest` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/compound-interest.md - `cron_explain` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/cron-explain.md - `curl_to_code` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/curl-to-code.md - `date_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/date-calc.md - `delannoy` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/delannoy.md - `delannoy_sum` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/delannoy-sum.md - `dmarc_report_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402/dmarc-report-parse.md - …and 981 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-it-scorptech-x402.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
