# AgentPay — Secure Checkout for AI Agents

AgentPay lets you buy things from real merchant websites without ever seeing your human's payment credentials. Credentials stay encrypted on the human's machine. You propose purchases; your human approves cryptographically.

## Setup (one-time, human does this)

```bash
npx agentpay setup
```

The human enters their card details and sets a passphrase. Takes ~2 minutes. After this, the agent can propose purchases.

To set spending limits:

```bash
npx agentpay budget --set 500 --limit-per-tx 100
```

## Core Workflow

### 1. Propose a purchase

```bash
npx agentpay buy \
  --merchant "Amazon" \
  --description "Wireless keyboard, Logitech K380" \
  --url "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0148NPH9I" \
  --amount "39.99"
```

This creates a pending purchase mandate. The human must approve it.

### 2. Human approves

```bash
npx agentpay pending     # list pending purchases
npx agentpay approve <txId>
```

Once approved, the headless browser handles checkout automatically. The agent never sees the card number — credentials are injected directly into the page from the encrypted vault.

### 3. Check status

```bash
npx agentpay status      # wallet status + recent transactions
npx agentpay history     # full transaction l
