imd.fun: reaching a price quote

Evidence-backed pass rate: 97/100 attempts (97%). A pass means the saved attempt reports acceptance of its request by a quote API, a quoted order, and a payment amount. A price copied from documentation or a free check alone does not count. The five merges report 19, 19, 20, 20, and 19 such quotes, respectively. Their agents saved response fields or summaries; these are not independently authenticated HTTP transcripts. The original user asks are not separately preserved, so the four ask groups below are reconstructed from submitted requests and replies. Exact fidelity to an absent original ask cannot be established. M1 M2 M3 M4 M5

Sources for every table row: M1, attempts 001–020; M2, 021–040; M3, 041–060; M4, 061–080; M5, 081–100. “Read” means a successful opening or fetch of imd.fun/skill.md explicitly recorded in steps, not merely seeing its link or mentioning it later. Attempt 029 tried to open it but the web tool could not access it, so it is in the “without a recorded successful read” column. All three quote misses are in that column. Lack of a recorded read is not proof that an agent never saw the file. The 52/52 versus 45/48 difference is descriptive, not evidence that reading the skill caused success. M1 M2 M3 M4 M5

Attempt 059 is the one counting correction: its reached_quote flag is false and its price field is null, but its saved evidence reports HTTP 201, status=quoted, oracle.request, and 500000000000000000 atomic IMD at 18 decimals. Its reply also says the request was accepted and quoted. It lacked the purchased floor-price answer, which lies beyond this quote-only target; therefore it counts as a quote. Attempt 028's earlier quote for an accidentally overwritten, unrelated brief does not count; its later corrected BTC quote does. In 002, the recorded Explorer quote API returned HTTP 200 with created=true, quoted status and payment amount, and therefore meets the same acceptance standard. M3, 059 M2, 028 M1, 002

All 97 evidenced quotes show a 0.5 IMD service price (500000000000000000 atomic units at 18 decimals); this is neither the CryptoPunks floor nor a delivered report, website or trade call. A quote admits a proposed job or oracle request and does not prove fulfillment. The saved attempts do not show payment, an agent signature, a wallet connection, or a finished result. These are observations of the supplied records, not a transaction audit. M1 M2 M3 M4 M5

What prevented a quote

All three actual misses were access or transport failures before a quote response. None is evidence that imd.fun rejected the subject of the ask. Each cause occurred once; the quotation is from the named attempt. M1, 018 M2, 029 M5, 088

Terminal cause	Count	Recorded excerpt and source
Browser/web tool could not submit a POST for the bakery request	1	“The available web tool cannot send POST requests.” M1, 018
Proxy failed before returning HTTP for the token research request	1	“Proxy CONNECT aborted due to timeout” M2, 029
API access returned HTTP 403/error 1010 for the BTC request	1	“HTTP 403, error code 1010” M5, 088

This access problem also created substantial recovered friction: 36 successful attempts across the five batches recorded client/API access or response-reading trouble and then reached a quote (batch counts 6, 6, 10, 7, 7). The exact symptoms vary, including Python-client 403s and unreadable responses; the groups are not 36 additional failures. One representative recovery says, “Python HTTP client received 403; retry with curl received HTTP 200.” M1, recovered obstacles M2, 026 and recovered obstacles M3, resolved friction M4, recovered friction M5, transient difficulties

Three other records—015, 059 and 095—describe the missing paid oracle answer after a successful quote. This is a boundary or reporting problem, not a quote failure. Attempt 059 says, “it did not provide the floor price without payment.” Oracle checks also produced recoverable wording or schema problems: for example, 055 first got HTTP 422 ambiguous_question before a revised panel-evidence request was accepted; 063 and 071 encountered unrecognized keys in a check payload before quoting. M1, 015 M3, 055 and 059 M4, 063 and 071 M5, 095

Source key

The five supplied merge files are transient inputs, so this report retains their batch counts, decisive exceptions and failure excerpts. The hashes identify the exact source bytes; each merge also contains per-attempt evidence and source identifiers. Links point to the read paths supplied for this job, not to a fresh imd.fun verification.

Fixes, in priority order

1. Make quoting reachable from common agent environments. Add a same-origin, browser-usable quote form on imd.fun and make the documented API work consistently for common HTTP clients, with a tested fallback route and clear 403/1010 and timeout diagnostics. The form would remove 018's POST-only tool barrier. Better client compatibility and an alternate route target the 088 denial and the 36 recovered access cases; an external proxy timeout such as 029 may still be outside imd.fun's control. M1, 018 and recovered obstacles M2, 029 and recovered obstacles M3, resolved friction M4, recovered friction M5, 088 and transient difficulties
2. Make skill.md easy to find and operational. Link it prominently from the homepage; include one minimal request-to-quote example per action, a browser route, a curl fallback, and short recovery steps for 403/1010 and timeouts. The homepage was the first recorded imd.fun page in 96/100 attempts, while only 52/100 explicitly read the skill. This would make the recovery path visible to agents like 018 and 088 and reduce the repeated client retries; the record does not establish how many failures discovery alone would have prevented. M1, navigation M2, discovery M3, first URL M4, discovery M5, first URLs
3. Separate “quote accepted” from “answer delivered” in the UI and skill, and publish exact check-versus-quote schemas. Show the service fee, quote status and next paid step separately from the requested output. Provide worked definitions for a time-sensitive CryptoPunks floor and examples of the accepted short oracle-check body versus the full quote body. This would prevent the false quote-failure classification in 059 and clarify 015/095; schema examples would remove the avoidable validation retries seen in 063, 071 and 091.
