description: Wallets, escrow, and billing. Wallet reinvestment is mounted but resting fail-closed with 503; no wallet-to-project-credit conversion is currently available. Generic escrow create rests with 503 escrow_resting, while release and refund of existing escrows are open and need no Redis, so they also settle in a process run with workers disabled; direct wallet spend returns 503 wallet_spend_resting from a process run with workers disabled (AGENTTOOL_DISABLE_WORKERS=1), the posture /public/plans reports for the serving process.

summary: 'Create and fund a generic escrow (resting: 503 escrow_resting)'
description: 'Resting: after authentication this returns 503 escrow_resting before body validation or any escrow or wallet database read, and no wallet is debited. Release and refund of existing escrows are open. The retained behaviour and the non-503 responses below apply only after a reviewed reopening. Atomically locks an active creator wallet owned by the bearer project, applies a guarded relative debit, creates a funded generic escrow, and records its lock transaction. An optional preassigned worker must also be active, owned by the same project, and use the creator wallet currency; for cross-project work, omit workerWalletId and let the other project accept the escrow. Idempotency-Key is optional for compatibility. With it, successful creation is permanently deduplicated in PostgreSQL by authenticated project and SHA-256 of the key; the raw key is not retained. Retries with the same recognized normalized creation fields resolve the original escrow identity and return its current row with 201 and Idempotent-Replay=true. They do not preserve the creation-time status snapshot. Changed bound input returns 409 before wallet mutation. Without the header, a retry can create and fund another escrow.'

summary: Release a generic funded escrow to its worker wallet
description: 'The creator project''s bearer authorizes release. The escrow must be generic, funded, assigned, and not past its deadline (an expired escrow can only be refunded). Both wallets must be active. A release is the creator wallet''s payment to the worker, so that wallet''s spending policy applies as it does to a spend: per-transaction limit, approval threshold, and allowed recipients, with the worker wallet id as the recipient; a policy that sets an hourly or daily limit refuses the release, because only wallet spend counts those limits. One transaction credits the worker wallet, marks the escrow released, and records the release. The API verifies no worker signature, completion proof, or bilateral approval. Workflow-managed marketplace escrows, and escrows that dispute bonds, substrate-task bounties, or template purchases created, refuse this generic transition with 409.'

summary: Refund a generic escrow to its creator wallet
description: The creator project's bearer authorizes refund of a generic funded or disputed escrow. Once a wallet in another project has accepted, refund waits for the escrow's deadline, if one is set; until then the creator can release it. An escrow with no deadline stays refundable at any time. The refund lands in the creator wallet whatever that wallet's status. One transaction restores the creator wallet, marks the escrow refunded, and records the refund. The API verifies no worker signature or approval. Workflow-managed marketplace escrows, and escrows that dispute bonds, substrate-task bounties, or template purchases created, refuse this generic transition with 409.

summary: Wallet reinvestment is resting; no balance-to-credit conversion is available
description: 'Valid owned-wallet requests return a stable 503, and the conversion service performs no reinvestment database work. The deployed old code treated generic gallery_sale and escrow_release transaction labels, minus prior reinvestments, as a lifetime allowance; ordinary wallet debits did not consume it, and later refunds or chargebacks did not claw minted credits. A read-only production audit on 2026-07-13 found ten rows: nine lacked a durable matching human Stripe receipt, and the tenth had human revenue but no source allocation tying it to the conversion. The rollout migration adds a database write guard and reverses every qualifying unreversed row with compensating transactions. Its rehearsal against that audited snapshot restored 1,640 wallet minor and clawed 16,400 project credits; preconditions must be checked again immediately before application. This static OpenAPI document does not infer whether that migration has reached a deployment: meta._migrations and live ledger verification are authoritative. Reopening requires backed sub-balances updated by every debit plus atomic credit clawback or durable debt accounting.'
