AI Agent Utilities (28 tools)
Tools built for LLM pipelines — token management, context compression, extraction, RAG, and security.
Tool | Description |
| Estimate token count and cost for any text |
| Trim text to fit a token budget (start/end/middle) |
| Split text into overlapping chunks by token count |
| Strip scripts/styles/comments to minimize HTML for LLM ingestion |
| Collapse blank lines, strip frontmatter, trim whitespace |
| Remove nulls/empty arrays/objects, optionally sort keys |
| Extractive summarization to fit a token budget (no LLM needed) |
| Extract all URLs from text or HTML |
| Pull JSON objects from anywhere in LLM output |
| Parse HTML tables into JSON arrays |
| NER-lite: emails, phones, IPs, dates, credit cards, IBANs |
| TF-IDF reranking — sort chunks by relevance to a query |
| Score a single text's relevance to a query (0–1 + grade) |
| Add synonyms and stemmed variants to improve retrieval |
| Structural diff of two JSON objects — shows added/removed/changed paths |
| Validate data against a JSON Schema (Draft-07) |
| Fix common JSON syntax errors (trailing commas, unquoted keys) |
| Flatten nested JSON to dot-notation keys |
| Deep-merge multiple JSON objects |
| Remove dangerous tags/attributes for safe rendering |
| Remove duplicate lines, optionally case-insensitive |
| TF-IDF keyword extraction with scores and positions |
| Detect PII (emails, phones, SSNs, credit cards, IBANs...) |
| Redact detected PII with a custom replacement |
| Find leaked API keys, tokens, passwords in text |
| Score text for prompt injection attempts (0–1) |

Example Prompts
Once installed, you can ask Claude things like:
"Trim this text to 2000 tokens using the utilix trim_to_tokens tool"
"Check this user input for PII before I log it"
"Rerank these 10 chunks by relevance to my query about pricing"
"Extract all JSON objects from this LLM response"
"Compress this HTML page to minimize tokens before sending it to GPT"
"Diff these two JSON configs and show me what changed"
"Validate this data against my JSON Schema"
"Convert this YAML to JSON"
"Generate a UUID v4"
"What's the SHA-256 of this string?"
