   Title:   A Server-Side Model for Gating Agent-Initiated Human-Sourced Asynchronous HTTP Tasks on Payment or Entitlement

Abstract:

   This document presents a server-side model for paid, human-sourced
   asynchronous HTTP tasks initiated by software agents acting on behalf
   of a principal.  Clients may retry after uncertain outcomes and act
   under authority delegated in advance, while fulfilment incurs cost
   and may not be freely reversible.

   The model places a payment or entitlement gate before fulfilment,
   maps that gate to adjacent protocols, and defines a task state
   machine.  Under stated well-formedness constraints and operating
   assumptions, it yields gate-before-fulfilment safety, at most one
   task per retained idempotency key, at most one gate acceptance per
   payment requirement, and an operator-checkable record linking a
   delivered artefact to operator-controlled records.  It defines no
   protocol, wire format, or conformance requirements.
