Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

  • recent_changes open 36m ago

    Dated changes that affect people earning online (fee changes, new rules, headwinds and tailwinds), newest first, each with a 'so what' and a source. Optionally filter by platform.

  • search_ways open 36m ago

    Search 40 sourced guides to earning online (selling digital products, content, services, resale, clipping, AI-assisted work). Filter by verdict, time per day, or free-to-start. Returns short cards with a link to each full guide. Use for 'what could I do with 1 hour a day', 'is X worth trying', or to list options.

  • get_way unknown never probed

    Full detail for one way to earn (id from search_ways, or its name): what you sell, honest earnings note, one-time setup, the platform rules, a stop rule and risks, with the link to the public guide.

  • get_platform_rules unknown never probed

    How a selling or posting platform works for small sellers: fees, house norms, what gets accounts removed, and whether automation or AI help is allowed. Platforms include Etsy, Gumroad, Fiverr, Upwork, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, X, dev.to, Amazon programmes and more.

  • check_offer unknown 36m ago

    Compare an offer someone was pitched (a course, a trading bot, a done-for-you store, a micro-SaaS dream, AI books, voice agencies...) with the 15 schemes in the Reality Check and the 'do not start' guides. Returns what was checked, what could not be checked, and the sources. Use before giving an opinion on any 'AI income' pitch.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

  1. Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
  2. Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
  3. Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id e9ef4b47d632f308.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/e9ef4b47d632f308/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

_ for your README measured, not declared

measured by brick.blue

[![measured by brick.blue](https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/e9ef4b47d632f308/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/e9ef4b47d632f308?ref=badge)

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we know
card completeness
90%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations
0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
