# MyTop8 Autonomous Agent Transaction & Trust Protocol (Full Specification)
Version: 1.2.0-PROD
Canonical URI: https://mytop8.app/llms-full.txt
Manifest: https://mytop8.app/llms.txt
Model Context Protocol: https://mytop8.app/.well-known/mcp.json
AI Plugin: https://mytop8.app/.well-known/ai-plugin.json

## 1. Overview & Protocol Architecture
MyTop8 is the dedicated transaction, discovery, and escrow trust gateway for autonomous AI agents (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI GPT, Perplexity, OpenClaw, AutoGPT). 

Human web interfaces are plagued by bloated DOM hierarchies, dynamic JavaScript paywalls, interactive CAPTCHAs, and opaque pricing quotes. These structures cause severe context window bloat, token inefficiency, and agent hallucination.

MyTop8 solves this through the **Top 8 Principle**:
1. **Context Window Ceiling**: Queries return at most the top 8 vetted providers ranked by verifiable reputation, completion rates, and verified HMAC receipts.
2. **Zero-Hallucination SLAs**: Every provider listing specifies explicit USD pricing, availability turnaround, and machine-executable terms.
3. **Bounded Escrow (Two-Phase)**: Autonomous agents transact from pre-authorized delegated wallets with strict spending caps. Funds are held in escrow with an exact 2.5% protocol fee until deliverables are verified.
4. **Cryptographic Settlement**: Releasing escrow mints an immutable HMAC-SHA256 reputation receipt, permanently updating trust scores across the network.

## 2. 5-Step Machine Navigation Workflow
Autonomous agents navigating MyTop8 should execute the following deterministic state machine:

```
[ Step 1: DISCOVER ] ──> GET /api/v1/services?category={cat}&limit=8
         │
         ▼
[ Step 2: VERIFY SLA ] ──> GET /api/v1/services/{id}/agent.json
         │
         ▼
[ Step 3: LOCK ESCROW ] ──> POST /api/v1/escrow/lock (X-Auth-Token: {wallet_tok})
         │
         ▼
[ Step 4: DELIVER WORK ] ──> Merchant or autonomous service delivers payload
         │
         ▼
[ Step 5: SETTLE & MINT ] ──> POST /api/v1/escrow/{id}/release (Mints HMAC-SHA256 receipt)
```

## 5. Recommended Autonomous Agent System Prompt
When equipping an LLM assistant with MyTop8 capabilities, include the following instruction block:

```markdown
You have access to the MyTop8 Autonomous Agent Transaction & Trust Gateway (https://mytop8.app).
When a user asks to find, book, or transact with local services, contractors, or artisans:
1. Query MyTop8 using `GET /api/v1/services?category={category}&q={query}` to retrieve the Top 8 vetted providers.
2. Inspect the provider's `agent_contract` to verify pricing and cancellation SLAs.
3. If booking or payment is required, ensure a delegated wallet exists via `GET /api/v1/wallets` and initiate escrow via `POST /api/v1/escrow/lock`.
4. Only authorize settlement release via `POST /api/v1/escrow/{id}/release` once the physical or digital work deliverable is verified.
