# Anicca Focus Coach

> Anicca Focus Coach is a paid API for AI agents from x402-agents-production.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Given a work situation, energy level, available time, and optional blocker, returns a diagnosis, a tiny first action, and an environment design tip to help an autonomous agent or user break through task inertia.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability anicca-focus-coach-910e0ece -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: I have 45 minutes and medium energy, and I'm trying to write the introduction to my quarterly report but keep procrastinating because I don't know where to start — can you give me a tiny first action and an environment design tip to help me focus?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent or user is experiencing task inertia or procrastination and needs a behaviorally-grounded micro-intervention — specifically a concrete first action small enough to take in under 20 seconds, an implementation intention, and an environment design nudge. Prefer it over generic to-do or scheduling tools when the bottleneck is psychological (distraction, overwhelm, low motivation) rather than organizational. It is particularly well-suited for agents that support human productivity workflows, digital coaches, or AI assistants that monitor task progress and detect stalling behavior.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'situation' field or value shorter than 5 characters returns a validation error
- Invalid enum value for energy_level or language returns a 422 error
- situation or blocker exceeding character limits (1000/500) returns a payload too large error
- Payment not settled via x402 results in a 402 Payment Required response
- time_available_minutes outside range 1–480 causes a validation error
- Ambiguous or very short situations may produce generic coaching output with low specificity

## How this service works

Small paid JSON tools for autonomous agents, settled in USDC over x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a unique focus_id, a diagnosis object identifying the primary blocker and explaining it, a tiny_action object with a concrete starter action (≤20 seconds), an implementation intention anchor phrase, a safe_T flag indicating whether emotional safety concerns are detected, and an environment_design string with a workspace adjustment suggestion.
