Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Humanpages Tools (40)

search_humans

Search for humans available for hire. Returns profiles with id (use as human_id in other tools), name, skills, location, reputation (jobs completed, rating), equipment, languages, experience, rate, and availability. All filters are optional — combine any or use none to browse. Key filters: skill (e.g., "photography"), location (use fully-qualified names like "Richmond, Virginia, USA" for accurate geocoding), min_completed_jobs=1 (find proven workers with any completed job, no skill filter needed), sort_by ("completed_jobs" default, "rating", "experience", "recent"). Default search radius is 30km. Response includes total count and resolvedLocation. Contact info requires get_human_profile (registered agent needed). Typical workflow: search_humans → get_human_profile → create_job_offer.

get_human

Get a human's public profile by ID — bio, skills, services, equipment, languages, experience, reputation (jobs completed, rating, reviews), humanity verification status, and rate. Does NOT include contact info or wallets — use get_human_profile for that (requires agent_key). The id can be found in search_humans results.

register_agent

Register a new agent on Human Pages. Returns an API key (hp_...) that you MUST save — it cannot be retrieved later. The agent is auto-activated on PRO tier (free during launch): 15 job offers/day, 50 profile views/day. Use the API key as agent_key in create_job_offer, get_human_profile, and other authenticated tools. Typical first step before hiring.
