Data Quality Gate - deterministic post-scrape cleaner + verdict MCP Server

PAID TIER, CALLED FROM A FREE ENDPOINT -- READ THIS FIRST: this tool does NOT return your cleaned data, and its response has NO `data` key. It returns {"status": "payment_required", "what_we_found_in_your_data": {...}, "get_the_repaired_data": {...}}. Do not treat its output as cleaned data and do not write it back into your dataset. WHAT YOU GET HERE, FREE: an exact inventory of the defects in YOUR data -- which repair rules would fire, how many values each would change, and which cases cannot be repaired safely and need your decision. HOW TO GET THE REPAIRED DATA: make the one call named in `get_the_repaired_data` -- POST https://www.aidatatools.dev/api/clean, $0.04 via x402, no account, no API key, no signup. That response body IS the cleaned dataset, in the shape you posted it. WHY THE SPLIT: detection is free on this endpoint and always has been (check_dataset_quality reports the same defects). The repaired artifact is the paid product, because it is re-bought on every extraction run rather than cached like a verdict. WHAT THE PAID CALL DOES: removes leftover HTML tags and entities, decodes mojibake ('Café' -> 'Café'), strips invisible characters (zero-width, BOM, soft hyphen), normalises non-breaking spaces and trims values -- across nested objects and arrays too. 100% deterministic, no LLM: the same input always yields byte-identical output, and cleaning twice equals cleaning once. It repairs how data was ENCODED, never what it SAYS: masked placeholders ('N/A', 'None'), near-duplicate rows and failed extractions ('access denied', 'captcha', which mean that record must be re-scraped) are reported with a proposal, never silently deleted or rewritten. The full boundary -- 7 rules applied automatically, 5 needing an explicit opt-in, 8 only ever reported -- is at GET https://www.aidatatools.dev/api/clean.

HOW TO GET THE REPAIRED DATA: make the one call named in `get_the_repaired_data` -- POST https://www.aidatatools.dev/api/clean/audit, $0.12 via x402, no account, no API key, no signup. That response body IS the cleaned dataset, in the shape you posted it. WHY THE SPLIT: detection is free on this endpoint and always has been (check_dataset_quality reports the same defects). The repaired artifact is the paid product, because it is re-bought on every extraction run rather than cached like a verdict. WHAT THE PAID CALL DOES: the same repair as clean_scraped_data, plus a complete audit trail: every transformation with its path, rule, before and after value, a replay_id, and input/output SHA-256. The ledger is a full inverse patch -- applying it in reverse reconstructs your original input byte for byte. Use it when you must be able to PROVE later what changed and why.

Call this before using any dataset. Returns a deterministic quality verdict (RELIABLE / USABLE_WITH_CLEANING / UNRELIABLE) with exact facts: completeness, nulls, type consistency, impossible values, duplicates, outliers, and (on financial/trading data) cross-source price divergence. 100% deterministic, no LLM. Free -- this MCP endpoint runs the engine directly; POST /api (plain REST, same engine) is x402-gated at $0.01/call instead. Input: rawJson (a JSON array of row objects, or a single object); datasetId is accepted but not resolvable on this deployment -- pass rawJson instead.
