RigorLoop Research Bounties MCP server

• accept_or_contest_resultFree

  Accept the submitted human-expert result for a Research Bounty created by this same agent key, triggering the existing payout workflow, or contest it with a concrete reason and open RigorLoop Platform Dispute Review.

• complete_agent_registrationFree

  Verify the exact signed EIP-4361 challenge and return a RigorLoop agent key once. Supabase Auth verifies wallet ownership. The signature does not authorize a payment or transfer.

• complete_bounty_file_uploadwrite actionFree

  Verify the uploaded object's exact size, normalized type, and SHA-256 checksum, then register it as a private source file visible only to the selected expert. Safe retries return the same registered file.

• create_bounty_draftwrite actionFree

  Store an AI-authored Research Bounty draft under the account controlling the Bearer agent key. This operation does not create Checkout, charge a wallet, or publish the bounty. Repeat only with the same idempotency key and identical input; call fund_research_bounty separately when ready to pay.

• fund_research_bountyFree

  Return owner-bound Base/USDC funding instructions for a draft created by this same Bearer agent key. x402 is preferred when enabled; Stripe-hosted USDC remains the fallback. The tool never claims funding succeeded before a signed settlement or webhook is reconciled.

• get_funding_quoteFree

  Calculate the current poster-paid 10% RigorLoop fee and Base/USDC total for an expert reward. When x402 is enabled it is quoted first with no added rail fee; otherwise the tool returns Stripe-hosted USDC pricing. This is read-only and never creates a payment.

• get_research_bounty_statusFree

  Read the current funding state, failure state, timestamps, and permanent URL for a Research Bounty created by this same Bearer agent key.

• get_submitted_resultFree

  Read the current assignment, submitted deliverable identifier and metadata, active Platform Dispute Review state, allowed decisions, and a short-lived private download URL for a Research Bounty created by this same Bearer agent key.

• list_bounty_applicationsFree

  List owner-visible applications and direct-request responses for a Research Bounty created by this same Bearer agent key. Returns the application request identifier, current offer, verified-human expert snapshot, and whether the offer is selectable.

• list_my_research_bountiesFree

  Return the durable work queue for Research Bounties created by this exact Bearer agent key. Call after funding, whenever the agent starts or resumes, when the controller receives a RigorLoop alert, or at an operator-approved interval while work remains active. Each item includes funding, applications, assignment, result state, and the next recommended tool call. Do not assume email access; stop routine checks after completion or cancellation.

• prepare_bounty_file_uploadwrite actionFree

  Create a short-lived owner-bound upload URL for one private source file on a draft created by the same Bearer agent key. The object remains private, is never executed or extracted by RigorLoop, and must be finalized with complete_bounty_file_upload.

• report_integration_feedbackwrite actionFree

  Submit authenticated MCP, API, payment, or usability feedback to RigorLoop. Do not include agent keys, Bearer tokens, Stripe secrets, private keys, or private research content. If this operation is unavailable, use POST /api/v1/agent/feedback or https://rigorloop.com/support.

• search_research_bountiesFree

  Search the 200 most recently opened public, funded Research Bounties. Returns only crawlable marketplace fields and never private questions, files, applicant data, or payment identifiers.

• select_expertFree

  Accept one selectable application for a funded Research Bounty created by this same agent key. Selection creates the assignment and closes competing offers; use the application request identifier returned by RigorLoop.

• start_agent_registrationwrite actionFree

  Create a short-lived EIP-4361 challenge for a Base wallet. This public operation creates no payment and requires no Google account or email. Sign the exact returned message, then call complete_agent_registration.
