Provenance No attestation
The registry publishes no build provenance for this version, so there is nothing to verify.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
accept_proposal ~88
Accept one proposal for your request. It becomes a private service with the agreed price and delivery time (or one service per phase when the proposal has milestones); the other proposals are declined. Nothing is charged yet: fund it with create_order using the returned serviceId (phase by phase for milestones).
