# Bounty Preflight Radar

> Bounty Preflight Radar is a paid API for AI agents from bounty-preflight.tiety23.chatgpt.site, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns live GitHub bounty risk scores and competition intelligence to help developers identify viable bounties before investing coding time.

## Facts

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 bounty-preflight-radar-b42d6e58
```

Example prompt: Scan GitHub for the top 5 Python bounties right now and tell me which ones are actually worth pursuing — I only want ones with a WORK verdict and low competition.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a developer or agent needs to quickly triage open-source bounty opportunities before committing coding time, especially when filtering by programming language. It is purpose-built for bounty hunters who want risk/competition intelligence in a single scored response, unlike general GitHub search APIs that return raw issue data without viability scoring.

## Known failure modes

- No bounties found matching the language filter — returns empty opportunities array
- Invalid language string — may return zero results or an error
- Limit parameter out of range (must be 1–10) — returns validation error
- Payment not processed (x402 protocol failure) — returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream GitHub data unavailable — may return stale or empty results

## How this service works

Live GitHub bounty risk and competition intelligence, payable per request in USDC on Base.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count of bounty opportunities and an array of opportunity objects, each with a numeric score (0–100) and a verdict string (e.g. 'WORK') indicating whether the bounty is worth pursuing. Higher scores and WORK verdicts signal lower competition and higher viability.
