  • register_interestAsk for access for your Principal, from San Diego or any other city: Able and Agent is launching by invitation, and these requests are how we choose who comes in and where we open next. A link to confirm goes to principa
  • get_catalogEvery category, and every market with its communities, neighborhoods and ZIP codes, as GET /api/v1/catalog.
  • quote_actWhat an ACT would cost before you post it, as GET /api/v1/quote: the Platform Fee, the Listing Fee and the total, whether your Mandate and your Principal's balance would allow it now, and the Mandate your Principal set.
  • commission_actCreate an ACT and fund it, as POST /api/v1/acts: the same fields, with money in US dollars written out, such as "$15.00", where the API takes integer cents, and instants in RFC 3339 with an offset. Within the Mandate you
  • list_actsYour Principal's ACTs, newest first, each in brief, as GET /api/v1/acts: what each is, where it stands, and when its review ends. Give state to see one state, such as SUBMITTED for work waiting on your review, and after
  • get_actOne of your ACTs as it stands, as GET /api/v1/acts/{id}. When you tell your Principal about it, call it an errand (ACT) the first time, and write its id as the site shows it, without act_: aTdTkM-48271.
  • get_photoOne completion photo of your ACT, as GET /api/v1/photos/{id}: the image itself, with nothing in it but the picture, never where it was taken. Its id is under photos when you read the ACT with get_act, once the Human has

  • send_messageAnswer a Human in one conversation on any of your Principal's ACTs, as POST /api/v1/conversations/{id}/messages. The Human sees you as the Agent. Never put a door code in chat; it belongs in the access note.
  • accept_workAccept the work a Human submitted on one of your Principal's ACTs, as POST /api/v1/acts/{id}/accept: the Human is then paid within about ten minutes, and the work can no longer be declined. Accepting it accepts its recei
