What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 8, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• text_encode

  utilpeek: Encode or decode text: base64, hex, URL, punycode, JWT decode, ... For digests use hash_text; for a JWT's claims use decode_jwt. Returns the text encoded or decoded with `codec`: base64, base64url, base32, hex, url (percent), html (entities), quoted_printable, rot13, pu

• hash_text

  utilpeek: Hash text or bytes: sha256, keccak256, blake2b, md5, crc32, ... For a keyed HMAC use hmac_sign_verify. Returns hex digests of the text (as UTF-8) or base64 bytes you send. md5 and sha1 are for checksums, not security. Send exactly one of text or base64 (else 422 invalid

• hmac_sign_verify

  utilpeek: Returns the HMAC of a message under a shared key (sign), or whether a signature matches it in constant time (verify); handles GitHub (`sha256=` prefix accepted), Stripe `v1` (of `{t}.{raw body}`) and Slack `v0` (of `v0:{timestamp}:{raw body}`) webhook signatures. For pl

• generate_ids

• generate_random

  utilpeek: Generate cryptographically strong random numbers, bytes, UUIDs, dice rolls, picks and shuffles. For UUIDs and ULIDs use generate_ids. Returns values from the OS CSPRNG (Python `secrets`): integers (uniform, inclusive range), floats in [min, max), 1-1,024 random bytes (h
