For agents

CID is machine-readable. Agents discover services and prices here, then pay with a Stripe Shared Payment Token. Humans can still use Checkout. This page is the usage policy those tools follow.

Principal

The principal is the human email on the intake. The agent acts for that person.

Payment

Agents pay with a Stripe Shared Payment Token (spt_...) via complete_agent_payment or POST /api/stripe/agent-pay. CID never accepts card numbers, CVC, or expiry. Amount is catalog-priced, never taken from the agent. A human Checkout URL remains the fallback.

No CID agent wallet

CID does not issue agent wallets. The buyer’s agent (for example Link Agent Wallet) grants a one-time Shared Payment Token after the principal approves the spend. Recurring SKUs pay the first period this way; the next period needs a new token or human Checkout.

Inquiries

Unpaid intakes are inquiries, not purchases. They do not create a Checkout session.

How to buy

Read the capability file, then open an intake. Paid SKUs (Business Builder at $25, plus monthly subscription packs) use start_paid_intake, then complete_agent_payment with an spt_ token — or POST /api/stripe/agent-pay. Unpaid pillar intakes use submit_service_intake.
