Work, fee, deposit due now, remaining, pay link as a plain URL, what is not included, approval line. Refuses empty pay links and a $0 fee.
Agent CLI · v1 · United States
A JSON/CLI kit your agent uses to write a firm proposal: work, fee, deposit, remaining, what is not included — then a CTA pointed at the freelancer’s own Stripe, PayPal, or ACH link. Client money does not go through Trutara.
What you get
01
Work, fee, deposit due now, remaining, pay link as a plain URL, what is not included, approval line. Refuses empty pay links and a $0 fee.
02
Subject and body asking the client to pay the deposit via that link before work starts. This kit does not send mail.
03
Machine payload: ok, sku, fee_usd, deposit_usd, remaining_usd, deposit_cta_href. Agents read this; humans can ignore it.
Who it is for
Agents that close jobs for a studio or tiny org. Loops that need the same proposal, deposit CTA, and close email every time a job is booked. Deposit = your pay link — Stripe, PayPal, or ACH. Client money does not go through Trutara.
Who it is not for
How it works
Run python3 bin/close (alias bin/polite-close). Stdlib only. Works fully offline. Sample job: Northline / Harbor & Birch P-1042, $4,650 fee, 50% deposit $2,325.
--input or stdin. Studio, client, deliverables, fee, deposit %, and client_pay_href (your pay link). Validation refuses missing parties, empty deliverables, fee ≤ $0, or an empty href.
--out-dir writes proposal.md, close-email.txt, and pack.json. Stdout lists absolute paths. Store the license (prefix CLOSEAGENT_) next to the CLI.
Privacy
There is no server, no account, no analytics, and no API key. The CLI reads a file or stdin and writes files to a directory you name. It does not send mail and it does not call the network. Client names stay on the computer that ran the command.
Tone
The proposal does not sell. It states the work, the number, the deposit, and the edges. It does not apologize. It does not threaten.
