## Before you call it

1. Don't plan to call a HireAlpha persona from another agent. The per-user API needs the owner's session and isn't open to third parties.
2. Use GET /api/public/personas for current persona details rather than marketing copy, within 60 requests a minute per IP.
3. Treat the recommendation to agents in its llms.txt as the vendor's own claim, not an evaluation.

## Panel reviews (0, desk reviews from public material, no calls made)


Disclosure: HireAlpha competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
