ISO 8601 Date Formatter API

developer 1 credit / call v2026-04-22

Render one instant as ISO 8601 extended, basic, week and ordinal dates, RFC 2822, HTTP-date, and Unix time.

One POST adds ISO 8601 Date Formatter to your app, site, workflow, or agent — formula, validation, edge cases, and docs already handled.

agents let your coding agent do it

Copy this into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Aider or Cline. It carries the endpoint, the full schema, a sample response, and the credit rules — so the agent wires iso-8601-date-formatter up correctly without draining your key.

Free to iterate: the prompt points the agent at POST /v1/tools/iso-8601-date-formatter/dry-run, which validates the request and returns the response shape for 0 credits. Only the final confirmation call is billed (1 credit).
Stable URL for this prompt: /tools/iso-8601-date-formatter/prompt.md (?variant=cursor / ?variant=mcp).
Paste into Claude Code, or save as CLAUDE.md context.
Integrate the MiniWebtool ISO 8601 Date Formatter API into this project.

## Your task

1. Read the reference below.
2. Ask me where this belongs in the codebase if it is not obvious.
3. Write the integration in the language and style of the surrounding code:
   a small typed client function, errors handled, key read from the
   environment (never hard-coded, never committed).
4. Verify with `/dry-run` first, then exactly one live call.
5. Show me the diff and the live result.

## Credit budget — follow these exactly

This API is metered. A live call costs 1 credit; the free tier
includes 1,000 credits per month. Burning them during integration is the
single most common way to waste this key.

1. **Do all wiring against `/dry-run`, which costs 0 credits.** It validates the
   payload for real and returns a sample result with the exact response shape.
   Iterate there until your request builds and your parsing works.
2. **Make at most ONE live `/run` call** — a single end-to-end confirmation once
   dry-run passes. Print the result, then stop.
3. **Never call the API from unit tests, examples, or a retry loop.** Assert
   against the sample response captured from `/dry-run` instead.
4. **On 4xx, fix the payload — do not retry.** The error body is RFC 7807
   `application/problem+json` and says exactly what is wrong.
5. **On 429, honour `Retry-After`** and back off; do not tighten the loop.
6. **Read `X-MWT-Credits-Remaining`** on every response. If it drops below 50,
   stop making live calls and tell me.
7. If the integration needs repeated calls at runtime, **cache by input** — this
   tool is deterministic, so the same input always returns the same output.

## The API

**ISO 8601 Date Formatter** — Render one instant as ISO 8601 extended, basic, week and ordinal dates, RFC 2822, HTTP-date, and Unix time.

- Live endpoint: `POST https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/tools/iso-8601-date-formatter/run` — costs 1 credit
- Dry run: `POST https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/tools/iso-8601-date-formatter/dry-run` — costs 0 credits, same auth and validation
- Auth: `Authorization: Bearer <MINIWEBTOOL_API_KEY>`
- Content type: `application/json`
- Tool version: `2026-04-22` (output shape is stable within a major version)
- Full machine-readable spec: `https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/openapi.json`

Skip the HTTP client — connect the agent directly.
Add the MiniWebtool MCP server to this project, then use the
`iso-8601-date-formatter` tool from it.

Server URL: https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp
Transport: HTTP (Streamable HTTP / JSON-RPC 2.0)
Auth header: `Authorization: Bearer <MINIWEBTOOL_API_KEY>`

Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http miniwebtool https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $MINIWEBTOOL_API_KEY"
```

Or add it to the MCP config file your client uses:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "miniwebtool": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${MINIWEBTOOL_API_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}
```

Once connected, `tools/list` exposes `iso-8601-date-formatter` with its JSON Schema, so you can
call it directly instead of writing an HTTP client.

faq frequently asked
What does the ISO 8601 Date Formatter API do?+

Render one instant as ISO 8601 extended, basic, week and ordinal dates, RFC 2822, HTTP-date, and Unix time. Use it to add this utility without rebuilding formulas, validation, examples, and documentation.

How much does one call to ISO 8601 Date Formatter cost?+

1 credit per successful call. Failed calls (validation errors, 5xx) don't bill.

What parameters does the ISO 8601 Date Formatter API require?+

Required fields: (none). Full schema at /v1/openapi.json.

Is the ISO 8601 Date Formatter API deterministic?+

Yes — same input, same output, forever. Tool version 2026-04-22; output shape is stable within a major version.

Can an AI agent call the ISO 8601 Date Formatter API?+

Yes. Connect to https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp over the Model Context Protocol. The agent discovers `iso-8601-date-formatter` with its JSON Schema automatically, so the model can plan while MiniWebtool handles the exact tool result.

What format does the API return?+

JSON with a stable envelope: `{request_id, tool, tool_version, credits_used, result}`. Errors are RFC 7807 `application/problem+json`.

mcp use from an AI agent

Every endpoint on this site is also exposed via the Model Context Protocol at https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp. Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-capable agent can discover this tool (iso-8601-date-formatter) and its JSON Schema automatically — no client codegen.

# List tools the agent can call
