Building an Agent Commerce Stack
Assemble listing, licensing, procurement, and trust records for agent-mediated product evaluation and purchasing workflows.
Short answer
Build the stack in four layers: describe the offer for agent discovery, define license and access terms, constrain buyer authority with procurement policy, and preserve seller or dispute evidence with the trust layer. Agent Commerce Stack groups those four canonical products without creating a marketplace or payment rail.
Decision criteria
- Whether the seller offer is machine-readable
- Whether license and entitlement terms can be checked
- Whether a buying agent has explicit budget and approval policy
- Whether claims and dispute evidence can be preserved
| Decision dimension | Decision guidance |
|---|---|
| Layer 1 - discovery | Agent Marketplace Listing Kit structures the offer for agent evaluation. |
| Layer 2 - rights | Agent License & Access Control Kit documents license, entitlement, and access-control records. |
| Layer 3 - buyer authority | Agent Procurement Policy Pack defines budgets, approvals, and purchasing boundaries. |
| Layer 4 - trust evidence | Agent Commerce Trust Layer organizes seller claims, verification evidence, and dispute records. |
