Poidh Bounty

Overview

This skill interacts with the PoidhV3 contract on Base to:

1. Post bounties (solo or open)
2. Evaluate claim submissions using vision — fetch the image URI from each claim and compare against the bounty description
3. Accept the winning claim (solo bounty) or initiate + resolve a vote (open bounty)

poidh ("pics or it didn't happen") is a fully on-chain bounty protocol. Claimants submit photo proof, and the bounty issuer (or contributors via vote) accepts the best claim to release funds.

⚠️ The PoidhV3 contract enforces msg.sender == tx.origin. Only EOA wallets can create or accept bounties. Smart contract wallets (Safe, etc.) will revert with ContractsCannotCreateBounties.

Required Environment Variables

POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS is resolved automatically from POIDH_CHAIN — do not set it manually.

Supported Chains

⚠️ Minimum amounts differ by chain. On Arbitrum and Base: 0.001 ETH minimum bounty, 0.00001 ETH minimum contribution. On Degen Chain: 1000 DEGEN minimum bounty, 10 DEGEN minimum contribution. Always verify on-chain before posting:

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS "MIN_BOUNTY_AMOUNT()(uint256)" --rpc-url $RPC_URL
cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS "MIN_CONTRIBUTION()(uint256)" --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Resolve the contract address at the start of every session:

if [ "$POIDH_CHAIN" = "degen" ]; then
  POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS="0x18E5585ca7cE31b90Bc8BB7aAf84152857cE243f"
else
  # arbitrum and base share the same address
  POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS="0x5555Fa783936C260f77385b4E153B9725feF1719"
fi

The poidh.xyz URL also changes per chain:

if [ "$POIDH_CHAIN" = "arbitrum" ]; then
  POIDH_BASE_URL="https://poidh.xyz/arbitrum"
elif [ "$POIDH_CHAIN" = "degen" ]; then
  POIDH_BASE_URL="https://poidh.xyz/degen"
else
  POIDH_BASE_URL="https://poidh.xyz/base"
fi

Part 1: Posting a Bounty

Check Minimum Bounty Amount

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS "MIN_BOUNTY_AMOUNT()(uint256)" --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Post a Solo Bounty

Solo = only you fund it; you accept claims directly with no vote required.

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "createSoloBounty(string,string)" \
  "<BOUNTY_NAME>" \
  "<BOUNTY_DESCRIPTION>" \
  --value <AMOUNT> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Example:

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "createSoloBounty(string,string)" \
  "Brooklyn Bridge at sunset" \
  "High quality photo of the Brooklyn Bridge during golden hour. Must show the full span." \
  --value 0.001ether \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Post an Open Bounty

Open = others can co-fund; claim acceptance requires a contributor-weighted vote.

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "createOpenBounty(string,string)" \
  "<BOUNTY_NAME>" \
  "<BOUNTY_DESCRIPTION>" \
  --value <AMOUNT> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Get the Bounty ID After Posting

cast receipt <TX_HASH> --rpc-url $RPC_URL --json | \
  python3 -c "
import sys, json
receipt = json.load(sys.stdin)
for log in receipt['logs']:
    if log['address'].lower() == '$POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS'.lower() and len(log['topics']) >= 2:
        bounty_id = int(log['topics'][1], 16)
        print(f'Bounty ID: {bounty_id}')
        print(f'View at: $POIDH_BASE_URL/{bounty_id}')
        break
"

Part 2: Evaluating Claims

When the user wants to pick a winner, the agent must:

1. Fetch all claims for the bounty
2. Retrieve each claim's URI from the NFT contract
3. Fetch and evaluate the content against the bounty description
4. Pick the best match

Claim submissions are freeform — the URI could point to an image, a video, a tweet, a GitHub PR, a webpage, a document, or anything else. Evaluate whatever you find against what the bounty asked for.

Step 1: Fetch Claims for a Bounty

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "getClaimsByBountyId(uint256,uint256)(tuple(uint256,address,uint256,address,string,string,uint256,bool)[])" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> 0 \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Returns up to 10 claims (most recent first). Increment offset by 10 to paginate. Each claim tuple: (id, issuer, bountyId, bountyIssuer, name, description, createdAt, accepted)

The name and description fields on the claim are also set by the claimant and may give useful context about what they submitted.

Step 2: Get the URI for Each Claim

# Get NFT contract address
NFT_ADDRESS=$(cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS "poidhNft()(address)" --rpc-url $RPC_URL)

# Get token URI for a specific claim
cast call $NFT_ADDRESS "tokenURI(uint256)(string)" <CLAIM_ID> --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Step 3: Resolve the URI

Convert non-HTTP URIs to fetchable URLs:

uri = "<URI_FROM_TOKEN>"
if uri.startswith("ipfs://"):
    url = uri.replace("ipfs://", "https://ipfs.io/ipfs/")
elif uri.startswith("ar://"):
    url = uri.replace("ar://", "https://arweave.net/")
else:
    url = uri  # already HTTP

If the URL returns JSON metadata (standard ERC721 format), check for an image or animation_url field and resolve those too:

import requests

response = requests.get(url)
try:
    meta = response.json()
    # Prefer animation_url (video/interactive) over image if both present
    content_url = meta.get("animation_url") or meta.get("image") or url
    if content_url.startswith("ipfs://"):
        content_url = content_url.replace("ipfs://", "https://ipfs.io/ipfs/")
except Exception:
    content_url = url  # URI points directly to the content

Step 4: Evaluate the Content

Fetch and review the content at content_url. Use the appropriate method based on what you find:

• Image — use native vision to view it directly
• Webpage / tweet / article — use the web fetch tool to read the content
• Video — note the URL and evaluate based on the thumbnail or any available metadata
• Document / PDF — fetch and read the text content

Evaluate each claim against the bounty name and description on:

• Relevance — does the submission match what was actually asked for?
• Quality — is it complete, clear, and unambiguous?
• Authenticity — does it appear genuine and original (not recycled or faked)?

Pick the claim with the highest overall score. Present your reasoning to the user before executing any transaction.

Part 3: Accepting a Winning Claim — Solo Bounty

For solo bounties (and open bounties where no external contributors ever joined), the issuer accepts directly. This immediately finalizes the bounty, credits the claimant payout to pendingWithdrawals, takes the 2.5% protocol fee, and transfers the claim NFT to the issuer.

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "acceptClaim(uint256,uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> <CLAIM_ID> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Part 4: Accepting a Winning Claim — Open Bounty (Vote Flow)

For open bounties where external contributors have joined, direct accept is blocked. Use the two-step vote flow.

Check if External Contributors Exist

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "everHadExternalContributor(uint256)(bool)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

If false, fall back to acceptClaim (Part 3). If true, proceed with the vote flow below.

Step 1: Submit the Chosen Claim for Vote (Issuer Only)

The issuer's full contribution weight is automatically cast as a YES vote at this point.

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "submitClaimForVote(uint256,uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> <CLAIM_ID> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

After this call, other contributors have 2 days to vote YES/NO via the poidh.xyz UI or by calling voteClaim(bountyId, bool) directly.

Step 2: Check Vote Status

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "bountyVotingTracker(uint256)(uint256,uint256,uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL
# Returns: yes_weight, no_weight, deadline_timestamp

python3 -c "import time; deadline=<DEADLINE>; print('Voting ended' if time.time() > deadline else f'Voting ends in {int((deadline - time.time())/3600)}h')"

Step 3: Resolve the Vote (Permissionless)

After the 2-day window closes, anyone can resolve. If YES weight > 50% of total weight, the claim is accepted and funds are distributed.

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "resolveVote(uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Part 5: Submitting a Claim on Someone Else's Bounty

Any EOA (except the bounty issuer) can submit a claim on an active open or solo bounty. This is how the agent acts as a claimant rather than an issuer. No native token is required to submit a claim — only gas.

The uri is the proof of completion — it can be anything: an IPFS image hash, a direct image URL, a tweet, a GitHub link, a webpage, a video, etc. It gets minted into a claim NFT at submission time.

Check That the Bounty is Active

Before submitting, verify the bounty exists, is not finalized, and has no ongoing vote:

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "bounties(uint256)(uint256,address,string,string,uint256,address,uint256,uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL
# Returns: id, issuer, name, description, amount, claimer, createdAt, claimId
# claimer == 0x0 means active; claimer == issuer means cancelled; claimer == other means already won

Also confirm no vote is currently in progress:

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "bountyCurrentVotingClaim(uint256)(uint256)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL
# Returns 0 if no active vote — safe to submit

Submit the Claim

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "createClaim(uint256,string,string,string)" \
  <BOUNTY_ID> \
  "<CLAIM_NAME>" \
  "<CLAIM_DESCRIPTION>" \
  "<PROOF_URI>" \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

• CLAIM_NAME — short title for the submission
• CLAIM_DESCRIPTION — explanation of how the bounty was completed
• PROOF_URI — the actual proof (image URL, IPFS URI, tweet URL, GitHub link, etc.)

Example:

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "createClaim(uint256,string,string,string)" \
  42 \
  "Brooklyn Bridge golden hour" \
  "Took this photo at 7:43pm on the Manhattan side. Full span visible with reflection in the water." \
  "ipfs://QmXyz..." \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Get the Claim ID After Submitting

cast receipt <TX_HASH> --rpc-url $RPC_URL --json | \
  python3 -c "
import sys, json
receipt = json.load(sys.stdin)
for log in receipt['logs']:
    if log['address'].lower() == '$POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS'.lower() and len(log['topics']) >= 2:
        claim_id = int(log['topics'][1], 16)
        print(f'Claim ID: {claim_id}')
        break
"

Important Constraints

• The agent's wallet (PRIVATE_KEY) cannot be the bounty issuer — IssuerCannotClaim will revert
• Submitting is blocked while a vote is active on that bounty — VotingOngoing will revert
• The bounty must still be open — finalized or cancelled bounties will revert
• There is no limit to the number of claims per bounty; the issuer picks the best one

Part 6: Withdrawing Funds

After winning a bounty as claimant, funds are credited to pendingWithdrawals and must be explicitly collected. The bounty payout minus the 2.5% protocol fee is available immediately after acceptClaim or resolveVote finalizes.

Check Pending Balance

cast call $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "pendingWithdrawals(address)(uint256)" \
  <YOUR_ADDRESS> \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Withdraw to Your Own Address

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "withdraw()" \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

Withdraw to a Different Address

cast send $POIDH_CONTRACT_ADDRESS \
  "withdrawTo(address)" \
  <RECIPIENT_ADDRESS> \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL

withdraw() sends the entire pending balance in one call. Check balance first to confirm funds are available before sending the transaction.

Agent Decision Flow

Posting a Bounty

1. Ask for: name, description, amount (ETH on Arbitrum/Base, DEGEN on Degen Chain), type (solo or open — default solo)
2. Confirm with user before sending — this spends real ETH (or DEGEN on Degen Chain)
3. Run createSoloBounty or createOpenBounty
4. Return tx hash and $POIDH_BASE_URL/<bountyId>

Submitting a Claim

1. Ask for: bounty ID, proof URI (image, link, IPFS hash, etc.), claim name, claim description
2. Verify the bounty is active and has no ongoing vote
3. Confirm the agent's wallet is not the bounty issuer
4. Confirm with user before sending
5. Call createClaim(bountyId, name, description, uri)
6. Return the claim ID and tx hash

Evaluating and Accepting

1. Ask for the bounty ID
2. Check everHadExternalContributor to determine the correct acceptance path
3. Fetch all active (non-accepted) claims via getClaimsByBountyId
4. For each claim: get tokenURI, resolve URI, evaluate content using the appropriate tool (vision for images, web fetch for links, etc.)
5. Present recommended winner + reasoning to user, confirm before transacting
6. Solo / no external contributors: acceptClaim(bountyId, claimId)
7. Open with external contributors: submitClaimForVote(bountyId, claimId), inform user contributors have 2 days to vote, then resolveVote after deadline

Native Token Amount Reference

cast uses ether as a unit label for any 18-decimal token. On Degen Chain, this means DEGEN, not ETH.

Fee Note

PoidhV3 takes a 2.5% fee on accepted claim payouts, deducted only at acceptance. The full msg.value is held in escrow until then. The fee is paid in the chain's native token — ETH on Arbitrum and Base, DEGEN on Degen Chain.
