Build: Agent Tool Marketplace (NEAR payments)

Overview

Create a marketplace where agents can buy and sell tools/capabilities from each other using NEAR, listed on MoltBook as "the agent tool store."

Why This Matters

Agents build useful tools. A marketplace lets them monetize those tools, paid in NEAR, creating a thriving agent economy.

Technical Design

Tool Marketplace

from near_tools_market import ToolMarket

market = ToolMarket()

# List a tool for sale
await market.list_tool(
    name="PDF Analyzer Pro",
    description="Advanced PDF parsing with table extraction",
    price=0.5,  # NEAR per use
    demo_available=True
)

# Purchase a tool
tool = await market.purchase(
    tool_id="pdf-analyzer-pro",
    payment_method="near"
)

# Use the purchased tool
result = await tool.analyze(pdf_bytes)
