Describe the job once: zip, optional service_key, the home in property (kind of home, rooms, size, floor; see the word list), price inputs such as hours in inputs, and words from the word list in must_have, nice_to_have and must_not. The answer reads the job back in job.read_back. Returns matches (each with one exact price, a quote_token and bookable windows), needs_more (businesses that take the job but whose price needs something the job did not state, each with a needs list and a plain why) and near_misses (each reason with a plain code and a label, e.g. home_kind_not_taken \"Takes apartments and condos only.\"). A business is never assumed to do something it has not answered, and is never sent a job it does not take (kind of home, largest home, a condition it marked not taken). Job conditions (pets, parking, mould, after building work and so on) go in inputs.conditions and are priced in, sent to the owner, or make the business a near-miss (condition_not_taken). Anything not on the word list goes in special_requests and always needs the owner's approval. Unknown words are refused with the word probably meant. Sending only service_key and zip returns the old merchants list. A search result is not a promise: prices and windows are as of availability_checked_at, and only a booked job is committed. A price from search can be held directly (it becomes a record when held); call quote to get a transaction_id before holding. Every result carries trust: the business's facts (who vouches for each: CommonTape checked, or the owner says so; since when and until when), facts that have lapsed, and its job record on CommonTape.

The rooms the job covers (scope) come from the quote token: hold takes no scope of its own and echoes the quote's. M-18: a hold locks the price: the answer says what it holds (quote_id, price, window, booking_authority), and a change the owner makes after the hold applies to new quotes only. If the business changed since the quote, the same job is judged again: at the same price the hold goes ahead; at a lower price it is held and price_changed says so; at a higher price it is refused PRICE_CHANGED (old and new amount, the reasons, and a fresh quote_token for the new price) unless you sent accept_price_up_to at or above it. A business that stopped taking jobs, or no longer does this job, answers BUSINESS_UNAVAILABLE with its reasons. M-21: a time that is too soon (the business's notice, the ZIP's notice, or its same-day / next-day No in discover when) answers INSUFFICIENT_NOTICE (422, the same next_actions as OUTSIDE_HOURS: select_alternative_window, quote) with error.earliest (RFC 3339, business offset): no start before it is taken, though a later time may still be closed; a weekend, evening or holiday No answers OUTSIDE_HOURS. One open hold per job per business: holding the same job again at the same business answers HOLD_EXISTS with the open job's transaction_id (send a different customer_ref for another customer). Holds you let run out count against you: at max_abandoned_holds_per_day (5 by default) in 24 hours the next hold answers RATE_LIMITED with retry_after_seconds. A refusal you can recover from (SLOT_TAKEN, CAPACITY_FULL, OUTSIDE_HOURS, BUSINESS_UNAVAILABLE, PRICE_CHANGED) carries alternatives.","security":[{"bearerAuth":[]}],"requestBody":{"required":true,"content":{"application/json":{"schema":{"type":"object","required":["quote_token","allocation_id","idempotency_key"],"properties":{"quote_token":{"type":"string","maxLength":8000},"allocation_id":{"type":"string","format":"uuid"},"idempotency_key":{"type":"string","minLength":8,"maxLength":128,"description":"Unique per write request (a UUID).
