Workflow
- Research/compare before checkout.
- Verify seller, price, fees, return terms, and delivery.
- Use
purchase_intent_prepare for cart, checkout, purchase, subscription, refund, cancellation, or payment-review artifacts.
- Use
purchase_intent_inspect to confirm prepared_not_purchased, approval requirement, check count, and no credential storage.
- Stop before payment/order placement unless explicit approval is given.
- Verify confirmation/order status only from tool/browser evidence.
Native Implementation Boundaries
- Use Humungousaur browser and approval tools.
- Do not import external reference AgentPay or shopping plugins.
- Payment integrations require native, audited tools.
purchase_intent_prepare never stores payment credentials and never executes purchase/payment actions.
Safety And Approval
- Purchases and payments are high risk.
- Payment details must remain private.
- Refunds/cancellations also require approval.
Verification
- Purchase claims require confirmation evidence.
- Cart/prepared states must be labeled correctly.
- Inspect purchase intent artifacts and confirm
prepared_not_purchased.
- Report price/source timing.
Failure Modes
- Accidentally clicking "place order".
- Missing recurring subscription terms.
- Treating cart as purchase.
