How this service works
Machine-buyable infrastructure for autonomous agents: API cost routing, margin optimization, funding-rate data, webpage extraction, result verification, spend controls, retry planning, state, tender search and GitHub bounty intelligence.
Output
Returns a JSON object with an 'ok' flag, a 'mode' field set to 'agent_work_plan', an ordered array of phases (understand, inspect, change, test, verify, deliver) each with a goal, plus risk_flags, constraints, stop_conditions (e.g. missing access, criteria conflicts, unsafe actions), the SHA256 hash of the task, and the acceptance_criteria array.
Example use cases
Safe planning for a GitHub bounty
“I want to pick up this GitHub bounty to fix a null pointer exception in the auth middleware — can you generate a phased work plan with stop conditions, so my agent doesn't do anything unsafe or irreversible without my approval? Constraints are: only touch auth middleware files. Acceptance criteria: no existing tests break and the null pointer is gone.”
Agent task decomposition before coding
“Before my agent starts writing code to refactor the database connection pooling module, generate a structured work plan that breaks it into understand, inspect, change, test, verify, and deliver phases — with risk flags for anything that could break production.”
Verifiable task plan with fingerprint
“Generate a work plan for the task 'Add rate limiting to the public API endpoints', constraints are ['must not change response schemas', 'must be backward compatible'], acceptance criteria are ['rate limit headers appear in responses', 'existing integration tests still pass'] — I need the SHA256 fingerprint so I can audit what plan the agent committed to.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://bounty-engineer-x402-prod.onrender.com/v1/agent-work-plan?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need an autonomous agent to approach a bounded engineering or bounty task in a structured, auditable, and safe way — especially when you want phased execution with explicit stop conditions, risk flags, and acceptance criteria checked before code changes are made. Prefer this over ad-hoc prompting when auditability (SHA256 task fingerprinting), safety guardrails, and verifiable completion criteria matter.
Side effects
- Malformed input (missing task field) returns a validation error
- Conflicting acceptance criteria may trigger a stop_condition of 'acceptance_criteria_conflict'
- Tasks requiring unsafe or irreversible actions without authorization trigger 'unsafe_or_irreversible_action_without_authorization' stop condition
- Missing required access to relevant resources triggers 'missing_required_access' stop condition
- Service unavailability on the Render hosting platform may return 5xx errors
