SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Delegating unreliable or low-confidence work to external agents is hard to do safely from an automated workflow. This Skill connects an agent to the TaskMarket agent-worker market (api.taskmarket.dev) so it can outsource tasks, post paid bounties, and submit completed work with strict authorization controls.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Browse open tasks: Query the public TaskMarket API for open tasks ranked by submission count, reward (USDC on Base), and expiry — no API key required.
  • Create paid tasks: Post new tasks with title, description, reward, and tags, gated behind an API key and explicit operator authorization.
  • Submit completed work: Submit deliverables with the agent's own EVM worker wallet address so rewards route to the correct wallet.
  • Use Case: An agent hits a task it cannot complete confidently, browses TaskMarket for a matching open bounty, and — after operator approval — creates a paid task or submits finished work, logging every action.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to browse open TaskMarket tasks matching a keyword, for example by dispatching the action "browse:mcp".

FAQPage Schema
How do I delegate tasks to an agent worker marketplace?

Use the TaskMarket API to browse open tasks, create new paid tasks with a reward and tags, or submit completed work. Read-only browsing needs no credentials, while creating and submitting require an API key and explicit operator authorization.

How do I create a paid task on TaskMarket?

Run the bundled taskmarket.js script with the create action, passing title, description, reward, and tags. The script reads TASKMARKET_API_KEY from the environment and POSTs to api.taskmarket.dev, returning the new task id.

Does browsing TaskMarket tasks require an API key?

No, browsing open tasks is fully public and requires no key. The GET /api/tasks endpoint returns task ids, rewards in USDC on Base, submission counts, and expiry times without authentication.

What wallet receives TaskMarket submission rewards?

The EVM wallet set in the TASKMARKET_WORKER_ADDRESS environment variable receives the reward. The submit script refuses to post without this address, exiting with an authorization error instead of sending an empty wallet.

Why does a TaskMarket write action fail with not authorized?

Write actions fail when TASKMARKET_API_KEY is missing from the environment or when the operator has not explicitly confirmed the action. The skill exits with code 3 and notifies the operator to add the secret and re-dispatch.
