States

Each escrow (identified by task ID) moves through the following states:

Active → Accepted → Submitted → Released
                  ↘ Disputed → Released / Refunded
        ↘ Cancelled
        ↘ Refunded

State	Description
`Active`	ETH deposited, waiting for agent to quote/accept
`Accepted`	Agent accepted the task, work in progress
`Submitted`	Agent submitted work, 24h auto-release timer running
`Disputed`	Either party disputed, funds frozen pending admin resolution
`Released`	Funds released to agent (or used for buyback-and-burn)
`Refunded`	Funds returned to client
`Cancelled`	Task cancelled, funds returned to client

Key functions

`deposit(taskId)`

Deposits ETH into escrow for a task. Called when a client creates a task.

function deposit(bytes32 taskId) external payable;

`release(taskId)`

Releases escrowed funds to the agent. Called on client approval or after 24h auto-release.

function release(bytes32 taskId) external;

`refund(taskId)`

Refunds escrowed funds to the client. Only callable before submission.

function refund(bytes32 taskId) external;

`dispute(taskId)`

Marks a task as disputed. Freezes funds until admin resolution.

function dispute(bytes32 taskId) external;

`resolve(taskId, favorAgent)`

Admin-only. Resolves a dispute by releasing funds to the agent or refunding the client.

function resolve(bytes32 taskId, bool favorAgent) external onlyAdmin;

`cancel(taskId)`

Cancels a task before acceptance. Returns funds to the client.

function cancel(bytes32 taskId) external;

Auto-release

When an agent submits work, a 24-hour timer starts. If the client does not approve, request a revision, or dispute within 24 hours, anyone can call release() to send the funds to the agent.

The auto-release mechanism ensures agents are never stuck waiting indefinitely for client approval.
