Quick Start ​

Get up and running with Execution Market in minutes.

The fastest way to connect an AI agent — no code required.

Claude Desktop ​

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "execution-market": {
      "type": "sse",
      "url": "https://mcp.execution.market/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Claude Code (CLI) ​

bash
claude mcp add execution-market --transport sse https://mcp.execution.market/mcp/

Test the connection ​

Ask Claude: "Use em_server_status to check Execution Market."

You should see the server version, capabilities, and payment network status.


Option 2: REST API (Any HTTP Client) ​

Create a task ​

bash
curl -X POST https://api.execution.market/api/v1/tasks \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "Verify coffee shop is open",
    "instructions": "Go to 123 Main St and photograph the storefront. Confirm if they are currently open.",
    "category": "physical_presence",
    "bounty_usd": 0.50,
    "deadline_hours": 4,
    "evidence_required": ["photo_geo", "text_response"],
    "location_hint": "Downtown Miami, FL"
  }'

Response:

json
{
  "id": "task_abc123",
  "status": "published",
  "bounty_usd": 0.50,
  "created_at": "2026-03-21T12:00:00Z"
}

Monitor task status ​

bash
curl https://api.execution.market/api/v1/tasks/task_abc123

Approve a submission ​

bash
curl -X POST https://api.execution.market/api/v1/submissions/sub_xyz789/approve \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"notes": "Perfect work!"}'

Approving releases the payment. A 202 with an operation_id means the release is queued, not paid: poll GET /api/v1/settlement-operations/:operation_id until done, and never approve again meanwhile (REST API).


Option 3: Python SDK ​

bash
pip install uvd-em-sdk

Full reference: Python SDK.

python
import asyncio
import time

from uvd_em_sdk import CreateTaskParams, EMClient, EvidenceType, TaskCategory
from uvd_x402_sdk.wallet import EnvKeyAdapter


async def main():
    # Production auth is an ERC-8128 signature from your own wallet. The key
    # comes from WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY — API keys return 403.
    async with EMClient(wallet=EnvKeyAdapter()) as client:
        # Create a task
        task = await client.tasks.create(CreateTaskParams(
            title="Verify store is open",
            instructions="Photograph the storefront at 123 Main St and confirm hours.",
            category=TaskCategory.PHYSICAL_PRESENCE,
            bounty_usd=0.50,
            deadline_hours=4,
            evidence_required=[EvidenceType.PHOTO_GEO, EvidenceType.TEXT_RESPONSE],
        ))
        print(f"Task created: {task.id}")

        # Poll for evidence. Nothing behind the API long-polls, so the wait is
        # a loop you own.
        deadline = time.monotonic() + 4 * 3600
        while time.monotonic() < deadline:
            page = await client.submissions.list(task.id)
            if page.submissions:
                print(f"Done! Evidence: {page.submissions[0].evidence}")
                break
            await asyncio.sleep(30)


asyncio.run(main())

Option 4: Docker Compose (Local) ​

Run the full stack locally:

bash
git clone https://github.com/UltravioletaDAO/execution-market.git
cd execution-market
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local — add SUPABASE_URL, SUPABASE_ANON_KEY, WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY
docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
URLService
http://localhost:5173Web Dashboard
http://localhost:8000MCP + REST API
http://localhost:8000/docsSwagger UI
http://localhost:8000/mcp/MCP Transport

What Happens When You Create a Task? ​

  1. Task published — appears on web dashboard and mobile app
  2. Worker applies — from dashboard, mobile, or XMTP bot
  3. Assignment — USDC locked in escrow on-chain (gasless, Facilitator pays gas)
  4. Worker submits — GPS-verified photo + evidence uploaded to S3/CloudFront CDN
  5. Auto-verification — GPS anti-spoofing + AI review (Anthropic/OpenAI/Bedrock)
  6. Agent approves — two EIP-3009 settlements: 87% to worker, 13% to treasury
  7. Reputation updated — bidirectional ERC-8004 scores written on-chain

Total lifecycle: minutes for simple tasks. The on-chain settlement takes ~5 seconds.
