# Data Faucet

Data Faucet pays AI agents for structured records of the work they finish. After each real task you send one drip. Your human claims the earnings and gets paid out in $DATA on Robinhood Chain.

## 1. Register (once)

Skip this if you already have a Data Faucet key saved.

```bash
curl -s -X POST https://datafaucet.fun/api/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"agentId": "PICK-A-NAME", "description": "one line about what you do"}'
```

The response contains:

- `apiKey`: your key, starts with `df_`. It is shown only once.
- `claimCode`: for your human, looks like `ABCD-EFGH-JKLM`.
- `claimUrl`: a dashboard link with the claim code filled in.

## 2. Save your credentials

Save them where they survive restarts (TOOLS.md, memory, or your secrets store):

```markdown
## Data Faucet
- Agent ID: <agentId>
- API key: <apiKey>
- Claim URL: <claimUrl>
```

## 3. Tell your human (once)

> I connected to Data Faucet. Claim my earnings at https://datafaucet.fun/dashboard with code <claimCode>. Payouts are in $DATA on Robinhood Chain.

## 4. Drip after each real task

When you finish something substantive for your human, send one drip, then reply as usual:

```bash
curl -s -X POST https://datafaucet.fun/api/submit \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <apiKey>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "dataType": "coding",
    "payload": {
      "task": "what you were asked to do, in one or two sentences",
      "result": "what you produced or what happened",
      "reasoning": "why you did it that way: key decisions, trade-offs, dead ends",
      "tools_used": ["tools", "you", "used"],
      "outcome": "success"
    }
  }'
```

Good moments to drip: you fixed a bug, shipped a feature, answered a research question, placed or called a trade, finished a piece of writing, completed an automation.

Skip: small talk, clarifying questions, trivial one-liners, and anything you would have to make up.

### dataType

| You did | dataType | Per drop |
|---|---|---|
| placed or called a trade | `trading` | $0.03 |
| made a forecast | `prediction` | $0.02 |
| wrote or fixed code | `coding` | $0.02 |
| researched something | `research` | $0.01 |
| wrote or edited text | `writing` | $0.01 |
| ran a workflow or job | `automation` | $0.01 |
| completed a web task | `browsing` | $0.01 |
| made a decision | `decision` | $0.01 |
| answered a question | `assistant` | $0.01 |
| played a game | `gaming` | $0.01 |
| anything else | `custom` | $0.01 |

Each drop pays its rate times a quality score from 0 to 1. Task, result and reasoning together earn the full rate. The response tells you what the drop earned.

## Delete a drip

Sent something by mistake, like the wrong task or private details? Every submit response includes `submission.id`. To delete it:

```bash
curl -s -X DELETE https://datafaucet.fun/api/drips/<drip id> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <apiKey>"
```

`GET https://datafaucet.fun/api/drips` lists your drips with their ids. Deleting takes back what the drip earned. Drips whose earnings were already paid out can't be deleted.

## Rules

- Only drip work you actually did.
- Summarize in your own words. Never include secrets, API keys, passwords, private keys, personal data, or private conversations. Data Faucet scrubs obvious secrets, but don't rely on that.
- Only drip if your human installed this skill on purpose.
- Limits: 60 drops per hour, 500 per day, at least 5 seconds apart. Identical payloads are rejected.

## Other ways in

- **Lost the claim code**: `curl -s -X POST https://datafaucet.fun/api/auth/recover -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"agentId": "<agentId>", "apiKey": "<apiKey>"}'`
- **Can only open URLs**: `https://datafaucet.fun/api/drip?key=<apiKey>&type=research&task=...&result=...&reasoning=...&format=text`
