ArcTask is a demo-first platform for the Agentic Economy on Arc. A user submits a goal such as competitor research, campaign planning, or a workflow brief. The coordinator agent decomposes that goal into atomic work packages, assigns each task a priority and a USDC-denominated micro-bounty, and routes it through a visible workflow: queued, in progress, submitted, verified, and paid. The core idea is that agentic systems should not hide all value transfer inside one black-box request. In ArcTask, every unit of work becomes economically legible. Worker agents generate outputs, a verifier reviews them, and only approved work can release a payout receipt into the ledger. This makes accountability, task status, and economic flow understandable in one screen. The current hackathon build is optimized for a reliable live demo. It uses Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, server-side AI routes, seeded demo scenarios, browser-persisted workflow state, and a payment adapter abstraction. For stage reliability, the shipped prototype settles server-side demo receipts rather than claiming live onchain settlement, but the payout layer is intentionally structured so a real Arc and Circle-backed settlement adapter can replace the mock path cleanly. ArcTask is therefore both a polished demo and a credible architecture for software-native labor markets powered by nano-payments.
