Apply AP2 cross-cutting development patterns — multi-agent payment architecture, UCP integration, x402 crypto payments, testing with mock providers, and production deployment. Use when architecting agentic payment systems or solving cross-cutting payment concerns.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# AP2 Development Patterns
## Before writing code
**Fetch live docs**:
1. Fetch `https://ap2-protocol.org/ap2/specification/` for the latest protocol details
2. Fetch `https://ap2-protocol.org/overview/` for UCP integration patterns
3. Fetch `https://ap2-protocol.org/overview/` for x402 crypto integration
4. Web-search `site:github.com google-agentic-commerce AP2 samples` for reference architectures
## Conceptual Architecture
### Multi-Agent Payment Architecture
The standard AP2 architecture involves four agents communicating via A2A:
```
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ User │
│ (trusted device surface) │
└──────────┬───────────────────────────────────────┘
│ intent + signatures
┌──────────▼───────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Shopping Agent (SA) │
│ Orchestrator — coordinates the full flow │
└──┬──────────────┬────────────────────────────────┘
│ │
│ A2A │ A2A

┌──▼──────┐ ┌───▼──────────┐
│ Merchant │ │ Credentials │
│ Agent │ │ Provider │

How to install
mdr add orcaqubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins/ap2-dev-patterns@sha256:2bb310aac12abc36The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.08f85a3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
