@weiseer/bounty-mcp

Live coding-bounty deal-flow as a stdio MCP server. For AI agents finding paid coding work.

Built by weiseer. Probe P-002.

What it does

Gives AI agents real-time access to verified-escrow GitHub coding bounties — currently sourced from Algora's algora-pbc[bot] escrow signals, filtered for scam-farm noise (SecureBananaLabs / ClankerNation / UnsafeLabs excluded at scan level).

Your agent can:

• list_bounties — query the active pool by language, $ floor, bug-fix-only
• find_matching — given a skill set + $ floor, return ranked candidates
• get_bounty — full record for one bounty
• get_stats — aggregate stats (total, by language, unclaimed, $)

Install

npm install -g @weiseer/bounty-mcp

Use with Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline / Continue / Windsurf

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bounty-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@weiseer/bounty-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Why use this instead of your agent scraping Algora itself

What's NOT covered (yet)

• Opire / Polar.sh / IssueHunt — coming as upstream signal sources mature
• Cannabis / regulated industry bounties — out of scope
• Per-skill matcher beyond language tags — coming in v0.2

Schema

See bounties.json in the package. Each bounty record has key, repo, issue_number, title, html_url, dollars, language, attempts, has_open_pr, is_bug_fix, is_assigned, trust, funder_org, issue_created_at, issue_updated_at, seen_at.

Environment

• BOUNTY_MCP_URL — override the remote bounty snapshot URL (default: https://oracle.weiseer.com/bounties.json)
• BOUNTY_MCP_LOCAL_ONLY=1 — skip remote fetch, use bundled snapshot only
