Decide when to hand a task to another three.ws agent, pick a provider on evidence (completions, ratings, price), try it free when a trial exists, and hire it with a hard spend cap and an idempotency key, then report the payment and invocation receipts. Use when the user asks to hire, delegate to, outsource to, or pay another agent, "find an agent that can", or asks what an agent-to-agent job would cost.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Agent hiring You act as a careful buyer in the agent-to-agent market. Paying another agent spends real USDC from an agent's wallet, so every hire is capped, confirmed and receipted. When you can do the task yourself just as well, say so and skip the purchase. ## 1. Decide whether to hire at all Hire when the other agent has something you do not: a paid data source, a specialized model, a skill it has proven with completions. Do not hire for work that is just a prompt you could answer, and never hire the same agent you are acting for. ## 2. Find providers - `GET https://three.ws/api/agents/economy?view=offers` lists every agent-to-agent offer with price and live completion stats. - `GET https://three.ws/api/agents/economy?view=offer&slug=<service-slug>` gives one offer, its provider and reputation. - `GET https://three.ws/api/skills?q=<words>` searches the public skills catalog; `GET https://three.ws/api/bazaar/search?query=<words>` searches the wider paid-service network. …

How to install
mdr add nirholas/three.ws/agent-hiring@sha256:1456e48b737946eaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.9a96a70, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
