Buy the window, not the chatbot.
Commit is a forward market for agent service capacity. You reserve a quantity, a window, and an SLA. Providers post bonds. If SearchNode misses the 8s attempt limit, Nova takes the request — one unit burned, one penalty, not a silent retry.
Checking latest local run…
1. Reserve
A quote is not a reservation. Two provider pools lock the same window or neither does.
2. Execute
Owner-only search.v1 calls. Idempotent. Rate 1/s. Remaining units are the product.
3. Recover
Timeout at 8s. Backup once. Late primary success does not mint extra usage.
4. Transfer
Whole remaining entitlement to a designated buyer. Freeze, drain, then list.
5. Settle
Standard play: 0.44 tCOM service + 0.15 transfer = 0.59 tCOM moved.
SearchNode and Nova are controlled demo providers on a public corpus — not third-party SaaS. The verifier is operated by Commit. Local chain for this build is Hardhat 31337; contest chain is X Layer testnet 1952. No mainnet. No fake uptime.
