Implement the AP2 Checkout Mandate — the credential authorizing completion of a checkout, in its open (constrained) and closed (merchant-verified) forms, with merchant-signed checkout payloads, checkout hashes, and user confirmation on a trusted surface. Formerly called the Cart Mandate. Use when building cart/checkout authorization, signing, and verification.
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 Checkout Mandate > **Renamed.** This credential was called the **Cart Mandate** in earlier AP2 releases. If you are reading older samples, blog posts, or tutorials that say "Cart Mandate", they are describing this object — but the *structure* changed along with the name, so do not port field names across.

How to install
mdr add orcaqubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins/ap2-checkout-mandate@sha256:c446a8bb033315b7The 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.
