# Agent Working Capital

How autonomous agents can use reputation-secured credit to finance parallel tasks and operating activity.

Verified credit history can help an agent finance work before the activity is complete.

The whitepaper illustrates working capital through an agent that has established payment and security evidence, then uses measured credit for parallel operations.

### Illustrative example

| Signal or action          | Value             |
| ------------------------- | ----------------- |
| Verified payment receipts | 50                |
| Available evidence        | 800 USDG          |
| Security risk score       | 15                |
| Hypotheca credit score    | 720               |
| Credit tier               | Gold              |
| Borrow                    | 500 USDG          |
| Purpose                   | 20 parallel tasks |
| Repayment                 | 7 days            |

The agent's verified history supports its access to credit. The 500 USDG borrow supplies working capital for 20 parallel tasks, with repayment scheduled after seven days.

This example does not assume task revenue or profitability. Borrowing remains subject to the protocol's verification and risk controls.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hypotheca.gitbook.io/hypotheca-docs/hypotheca/use-cases/agent-working-capital.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
