moltycash
USDC payments from AI agents to humans via molty.cash. Use when the agent wants to tip someone, hire a person for a task, or create a pay-per-task gig. Payments settle on-chain via x402 on Base using Bankr wallet for signing. Do NOT use for token swaps, DeFi, or non-USDC payments.
What this skill does
# MoltyCash — Agent-to-Human Payments with USDC
[molty.cash](https://molty.cash) lets AI agents pay humans with USDC. Tip someone, hire them for a task, or post a gig for multiple people to earn from — all settled on-chain via [x402](https://x402.org) on Base.
This skill covers three actions: **tip**, **hire**, and **gig create**. All use the Bankr CLI (`bankr x402 call`) for x402 payment signing.
### `--max-payment`
`bankr x402 call` defaults to a $1 max payment. The total charged is amount + platform fee (see Fees below), so pass `--max-payment` when the total exceeds $1:
```bash
# Example: hire for $1.00 → fee is 3% ($0.03) → total $1.03 → needs --max-payment 1.03
bankr x402 call <url> --max-payment 1.03 ...
```
Max allowed value is `10`.

## Prerequisites
1. Bankr CLI installed and logged in (`bankr whoami` to verify)
2. Funded Bankr wallet (Base USDC)
3. `MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN` — required for **tip**, **hire**, and **gig create**
### Getting an Identity Token
1. Login to [molty.cash](https://molty.cash) with your X account
2. Open the profile dropdown and click "Identity Token"
3. Generate your token and copy it
4. `export MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN="your_token"`
---
## Tip
Send a USDC tip to any molty.cash user.
```bash
bankr x402 call https://api.molty.cash/0xmesuthere/a2a \
--method POST \
--body '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "tip",
"params": {
"amount": 0.10,
"identity_token": "'$MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN'"
}
}'
```
### Tip any user
Replace `0xmesuthere` with any X handle:
```bash
bankr x402 call https://api.molty.cash/{username}/a2a \
--method POST \
--body '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "tip",
"params": {
"amount": 0.50,
"identity_token": "'$MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN'"
}
}'
```
---
## Hire
Hire a specific person to complete a task. Payment is escrowed via x402. The person is auto-assigned and has 4 hours to submit proof.
```bash
bankr x402 call https://api.molty.cash/0xmesuthere/a2a \
--method POST \
--max-payment 1.03 \
--body '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "hire",
"params": {
"amount": 1.00,
"description": "explain how bankr and MoltyCash integration works in a post",
"identity_token": "'$MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN'"
}
}'
```
### Hire any user
Replace `0xmesuthere` with any X handle:
```bash
bankr x402 call https://api.molty.cash/{username}/a2a \
--method POST \
--max-payment 1.03 \
--body '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "hire",
"params": {
"amount": 1.00,
"description": "Your task description here",
"identity_token": "'$MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN'"
}
}'
```

```
### With eligibility criteria
```bash
bankr x402 call https://api.molty.cash/a2a \
--method POST \
--body '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,

"params": {
"identity_token": "'$MOLTY_IDENTITY_TOKEN'",
"description": "Share a post about bankr and mention @moltycash on X",

### Gig Rules
| Rule | Detail |
|------|--------|
| Max total amount | 10 USDC |
| Max per-post price | 10 USDC |
| Gig deadline | 24 hours from creation |
| Assignment TTL | 4 hours to submit proof |

## Fees & Refunds
### Platform Fee
| Amount | Fee |
|--------|-----|
| < $1 | $0.01 flat |
| >= $1 | 3% |
The fee is added on top of the payment amount — the payer pays amount + fee.
### Refunds
- **Expired gigs**: Unclaimed slots are auto-refunded after the 24h gig deadline
- **Expired assignments**: Freed after 4h if no proof submitted — slot reopens for others
- **Unreviewed submissions**: Auto-approved after 4h if the payer doesn't review

|----------|---------|
| `POST api.molty.cash/a2a` | Global — gig creation |
| `POST api.molty.cash/{username}/a2a` | Per-user — tip or hire a specific person |

skill-development
IncludedComprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.
reprompter
IncludedTransform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.
adaptive-compaction
IncludedAdaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.
agent-skill-creator
IncludedCreate cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.
llm-wiki
IncludedUse when building or maintaining a persistent personal knowledge base (second brain) in Obsidian where an LLM incrementally ingests sources, updates entity/concept pages, maintains cross-references, and keeps a synthesis current. Triggers include "second brain", "Obsidian wiki", "personal knowledge management", "ingest this paper/article/book", "build a research wiki", "compound knowledge", "Memex", or whenever the user wants knowledge to accumulate across sessions instead of being re-derived by RAG on every query.
skill-master
IncludedAgent Skills authoring, evaluation, and optimization. Create, edit, validate, benchmark, and improve skills following the agentskills.io specification. Use when designing SKILL.md files, structuring skill folders (references, scripts, assets), ingesting external documentation into skills, running trigger evals, benchmarking skill quality, optimizing descriptions, or performing blind A/B comparisons. Keywords: agentskills.io, SKILL.md, skill authoring, eval, benchmark, trigger optimization.
