Input guidance

Required:

  • query: natural-language web search query

Optional:

  • limit: number of results requested

Prefer specific queries that express the information need clearly.

Spending rules

  • Penny costs $0.004 per call.
  • Prefer one well-formed search before issuing additional calls.
  • Do not make duplicate searches unless the first result is insufficient.
  • Never fabricate a successful payment or result.
  • A failed non-2xx request should not be treated as fulfilled.

Result handling

Return useful facts from Penny's response and preserve source URLs when present.

Distinguish:

  • information returned by Penny
  • your own inference
  • information from other sources

For time-sensitive claims, prefer the freshest credible source in the returned results.

Troubleshooting

If the endpoint is not recognized:

npx agentcash@latest discover https://pennyregwatch.com

If AgentCash has not persisted Penny as a provider:

npx agentcash@latest add https://pennyregwatch.com

Do not guess alternate Penny endpoint paths. Use /v1/search.
