# Reconcile an uncertain compose start

`POST /v1/projects/{id}/compose/jobs/{composeJobId}/reconcile`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.cueframe.ai`
- URL: `https://api.cueframe.ai/v1/projects/{id}/compose/jobs/{composeJobId}/reconcile`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - OAuth 2 (authorization code, authorization URL `https://api.cueframe.ai/api/auth/mcp/authorize`, token URL `https://api.cueframe.ai/api/auth/mcp/token`, scopes: `projects:write`)
  - API key in header `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE`

Reads the recorded execution engine by its persisted key. A missing lookup keeps the job pending; this never dispatches another run.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required
- `composeJobId` string, required

## Response `200`

Engine lookup disposition.

- ComposeDispatchReconciliationResponse
  - `disposition` 'accepted' | 'already_resolved' | 'superseded' | 'unresolved', required
  - `reason` 'binding_missing' | 'malformed_engine_response' | 'engine_not_found' | 'engine_terminal_without_receipt' | 'engine_unavailable'
  - `status` string
  - `engineStatus` string

## Other responses

- `400`: Bad request — validation_error / invalid_cursor / invalid_query.
- `401`: Missing or invalid Authorization header.
- `402`: Payment required. Returned when the caller presents no API key on a priced operation: the body AND the `Payment-Required` header carry the x402 v2 challenge (accepted scheme, network, USDC asset, amount, payTo). Sign the EIP-3009 authorization and retry with a `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE` header. A KEYED caller sees this status instead when their plan lacks or has exhausted the feature (`billing_required`).
- `403`: Forbidden — permission insufficient.
- `404`: Resource not found.
- `429`: Rate limited. Retry-After header present.
- `500`: Internal error.
