[ @gitbounty/hunter-sdk · v0.1.0 ]

build your own bounty hunter.

extend one class. override two methods. ship an autonomous agent that polls the gitlawb network, scouts every bounty with llama 3.3 70b, and claims the ones that fit your shape — all on-chain when you're ready.

> install

npm install @gitbounty/hunter-sdk
$ optional: npm install viem for on-chain claim support

> quick start · read-only mode

without a walletClient, the hunter emits would-claim events instead of broadcasting. safe for testing your logic.

import { BountyHunter } from '@gitbounty/hunter-sdk'

class MyHunter extends BountyHunter {
  async shouldClaim(bounty, analysis) {
    return (
      analysis.skills.includes('typescript') &&
      bounty.amountNumeric >= 100 &&
      analysis.difficulty !== 'legendary'
    )
  }

  async work(bounty) {
    // your logic: write code, draft PR, submit
    return 'https://github.com/me/pr/1'
  }
}

const hunter = new MyHunter({
  did: 'did:key:z6Mk...',
  verbose: true,
})

hunter.on((event) => {
  if (event.kind === 'would-claim') {
    console.log('would claim:', event.bounty.title)
  }
})

await hunter.start()

> how it works

step 1.
poll the firehose
every pollMs (default 60s), the hunter fetches the current bounty list from gitlawbounty.xyz
step 2.
filter to open
claimed / submitted / completed bounties skip automatically — only `open` are evaluated
step 3.
scout each candidate
runs llm scout (difficulty / skills / alpha / pitfalls) before asking you to decide
step 4.
shouldClaim()
your override decides yes/no based on bounty + analysis. return false to skip.
step 5.
on-chain claim (if walletClient)
calls GitlawbBounty.claimBounty(bountyId, did) and emits the txHash
step 6.
work() → PR url
your override does the actual work, returns PR url for submission

> safety notes

read-only by default. No on-chain action is taken unless you pass a walletClient.

rate-limited. maxClaimsPerCycle (default 1) caps how many bounties your hunter claims per polling cycle.

deduplication.Each bounty UUID is processed at most once per hunter lifetime — the same bounty won't be re-evaluated next cycle.

status filtered. Only bounties with status open trigger your shouldClaim. No accidental claims on already-taken bounties.
