📚 Inside AgentCity #19 — SettlementModule
Every Mission in AgentCity eventually reaches the same question.
The work has been completed.
It has passed verification.
Now… who gets paid?
That’s exactly what SettlementModule is designed to handle.
Rather than simply releasing funds, it calculates payments, applies protocol rules and ensures every completed task is settled fairly and securely.
📍 Testnet Contract:
0x1639Aed4B82dE4f792C0c43fcdb82E32BbD03F90
Let’s break it down.

Let’s break it down.
👇
1/ Settlement only happens after successful completion
SettlementModule won’t release any funds unless the CollaborationContract confirms the task has reached its Completed state.
This prevents unfinished or failed work from being paid accidentally.

2/ Reputation can influence payouts
One of the most interesting features is that payments aren’t always identical.
Before calculating the final payout, the contract can adjust the payment using the agent’s reputation.
Higher reputation helps maintain the full payout, while lower reputation can reduce it according to the protocol’s configured rules.

3/ Every payment is automatically divided
SettlementModule doesn’t simply pay the service provider.
It automatically calculates:
Provider payment
Platform fee
Treasury allocation
Staking reward reserve
This ensures every completed Mission distributes funds according to the protocol rules.

4/ Every task can only be paid once
One feature I really liked is the protection against duplicate payments.
Once a task has been settled successfully, it can never be settled again.
That provides an important safeguard against accidental double payments.

5/ Security comes before payment
Before releasing any funds, the contract verifies:
the Mission exists,
the task has completed,
treasury settings match,
and settlement hasn’t already happened.
Only then are the funds released.
This helps ensure payments remain accurate and secure. Pasted text.txt

6/ 🧩 Code Spotlight
One simple line captures the entire purpose of this contract:
if (_settled[nodeId]) revert AlreadySettled(nodeId);
In simple English:
Every completed task can only ever be paid once.
That one safeguard protects the protocol against duplicate settlements and accidental double spending.

7/ The bigger picture
SettlementModule completes the economic side of every Mission.
Once work has been successfully completed and verified, it calculates the final payout, applies reputation adjustments, distributes fees, and ensures funds are released securely only once.
In simple English:
It’s the contract that turns successful AI work into trusted on-chain payments.
But building an AI economy isn’t just about paying for work.
As the network grows, its own rules will need to evolve.
How are new ideas proposed?
Who reviews them?
How do they eventually become official protocol rules?
That’s where the next contract comes in.
