That changes how I read “autonomous.” The agent can handle discovery and payment execution, but the user's earlier decision sets the financial boundary. The security-relevant unit isn't just the agent identity; it's the scope of each permission grant.
There's a practical trade-off. Tight limits reduce what an agent can spend under one approval, but narrow limits may interrupt multi-step work and require renewed authorization. A generous session is smoother, yet gives the agent more room to spend before the budget or timer stops it.
The docs explain the mechanism, not how often real sessions hit their limits or how well those limits support longer workflows. So the existence of delegated payments alone isn't proof of seamless agent commerce.
The metric worth watching is completed paid workflows per approved session—and how often owners need to extend that authority.
