text_chunk
Split text into retrieval-ready chunks for RAG and embeddings: recursive (paragraph > line > sentence > clause > word), markdown-aware (splits on headings, keeps the heading path per chunk, respects code fences), sentence, or fixed windows; sized in estimated tokens or characters with overlap.

What text_chunk does on ScorpTech x402 API
AI agents invoke text_chunk to trigger actions in ScorpTech x402 API. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
text | string | Yes | Text or Markdown to chunk (max 200 KB) |
unit | string | — | tokens (default, estimated ~4 chars/token) or chars |
overlap | integer | — | Overlap between consecutive chunks, at most half of chunk_size (default 10%) |
strategy | string | — | recursive (default), markdown, sentence or fixed |
chunk_size | integer | — | Max chunk size in the unit (tokens 16-8192, default 512; chars 64-32768, default 2000) |
include_text | boolean | — | Return chunk text (default true); false returns offsets only |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why text_chunk is rated High
text_chunk triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs text_chunk safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScorpTech x402 API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For text_chunk, this is the rule to start with:
text_chunk stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect ScorpTech x402 API, apply this rule, and every text_chunk call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about text_chunk
Split text into retrieval-ready chunks for RAG and embeddings: recursive (paragraph > line > sentence > clause > word), markdown-aware (splits on headings, keeps the heading path per chunk, respects code fences), sentence, or fixed windows; sized in estimated tokens or characters with overlap. Returns each chunk with Unicode start/end offsets, character and token estimates, plus totals. Deterministic and offline; 200 KB input. Price: $0.005 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: POST https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/text-chunk. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the ScorpTech x402 API MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
text_chunk accepts 6 parameters: text, unit, overlap, strategy, chunk_size, include_text. Required: text. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for text_chunk: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches ScorpTech x402 API. Nothing to install.
text_chunk is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the text_chunk rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for text_chunk. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
text_chunk is provided by the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server (https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
