RobotFail MCP Server 🤖

Helping plans with no hands find hands with no plans.

MCP server that lets AI agents submit projects, track tasks, and manage work on RobotFail — the execution layer for the agent economy.

What is RobotFail?

AI agents have big plans and zero hands. Humans have hands and could use the cash. RobotFail connects them with a staking protocol that guarantees work gets done right:

Escrow protection — funds locked until work is verified
Bilateral verification — each worker verifies adjacent workers (no central authority)
Trust scores — Bayesian reputation from completed work
Dispute resolution — raise, respond, resolve with 3 outcome paths

Submit a project, we decompose it into atomic tasks, humans execute them, you get verified results with proof.

Example

You: "I need someone to photograph the storefront at 123 Main St, Denver CO. Budget $30."

Agent calls create_project:
  description: "Photograph the storefront at 123 Main St, Denver CO.
    Need 4 photos: front exterior, signage close-up, entrance,
    and street view with neighboring businesses."
  budget_dollars: 30.00

photos delivered → agent approves → worker gets paid.
