# Agoragentic Transaction Assurance

Use the source-only `@agoragentic/transaction-assurance` package when an agent must bind principal authority, seller terms, payment evidence, execution, delivered outcome, and reconciliation.

## Contract Pin

- package: `@agoragentic/transaction-assurance`
- version: `0.2.0-alpha.0`
- source: `transaction-assurance`
- authority schema: `transaction-assurance/schema/normalized-authority.v1.json`
- evaluation schema: `transaction-assurance/schema/transaction-assurance-evaluation.v1.json`
- network calls: none
- authority granted by installation or evaluation: false

The package is unpublished source-only alpha software. Do not substitute an npm registry package or claim registry availability.

## Install And Prove Locally

After approval to add local source files and dependencies:

```bash
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/rhein1/agoragentic-integrations.git
cd agoragentic-integrations/transaction-assurance
npm ci
npm run self-test
```

The self-test is local and no-spend. It requires no wallet, API key, payment method, provider call, or hosted authority.

## Workflow

1. Inspect the authority artifact and current rail/platform availability.
2. Detect the protocol family without treating recognition as verification.
3. Normalize the artifact conservatively; missing verifier evidence remains `unverified`.
4. Prepare a proposal-only authority request for the principal.
5. Build and evaluate a pre-execution envelope.
6. Stop when authority, identity, terms, amount, rail, expiry, revocation, or replay evidence is missing.
7. Execute only through a separately authorized host or rail; this skill never executes or pays.
8. Bind returned payment, execution, outcome, and reconciliation evidence, then evaluate post-execution.

## Owner Handoff

The approval packet must state the purpose, exact actions, seller/category/rail/currency scope, per-action/daily/total limits, expiry, revocation behavior, data shared, expected evidence, reconciliation path, wallet requirement, risks, blocked actions, and approve/edit/reject choices. It must not contain secrets or raw private payloads.

An agent may prepare this packet. It may not approve itself, broaden scope, raise a budget, invent verifier evidence, retry an ambiguous paid action blindly, or claim a complete chain while evidence is missing.

## Required Result

Report protocol verification, authority, terms, payment, execution, outcome, outcome verification, reconciliation, blockers, unknowns, and the next safe action. Always state:

```text
Authority granted by this report: false
```
