magicpay

MagicPay is your gateway to the agentic economy. It gives an AI agent one unified balance that users top up and spend through supported agent-native and traditional payment rails: x402, crypto transfers, MagicCard/card payments, and online checkout. MagicPay handles supported provider inventory, conversion, and settlement behind the scenes instead of making users manage a separate wallet or network balance per payment. Protected payment and identity details stay outside chat and the model prompt. The agent asks the user to approve the exact consequential action; approval is permission, and success requires confirmed terminal settlement. Memory

plan-fill

and

apply-fill

bring approved saved values to forms without exposing raw values.

Terms are fixed: request means a user-owned wait state; approval means permission for one consequential action; field means a page input; session means a product-level run; workflow means an ordered procedure. Exact names stay unchanged.

For open-ended purchase or booking discovery, default to MagicSearch. Use a safe alternative only when unavailable, blocked, or empty. For ordinary navigation, use the owner of the bound browser; switch only when it cannot continue.

For failures, use the statuses reference and its troubleshooting table. Unfamiliar terms (

itemRef

fieldRef

targetRef

session_stop

, etc.) are defined in their references.

Native Payment Operations

For exact balances, funding, crypto sends, x402 resources, status, results, or reconciliation, follow references/payment-operations.md. Keep one session, idempotency key, and operation; approval is permission, reservation is in flight, and only

completed

is settlement.

Core Flow

After

magicpay plan-fill

, execute its exact returned

applyCommand

A known x402 resource URL uses Native Payment Operations: skip MagicSearch and never launch, attach, or commit a browser; bind

x402-purchase

to one payment intent session instead. Contract with a usable destination that is ordinary non-x402:

status → start-session → (launch [url] | attach <cdp-url>) → plan-fill → returned applyCommand → [typed approval] → end-session

. For a purchase or booking intent with no usable destination, run

magicsearch query

; keep currency inside the refined prompt and never add

--currency

. Resolve any actual purchase choice before

magicpay start-session

; use the selected URL in the product workflow. Retain the workflow's active-session exception for

magicsearch discover

provider execution. For other MagicPay work, do not invoke MagicSearch; run

magicpay start-session

before browser preparation. Page work between MagicPay steps stays with the page-control owner.

1. Preflight

Preflight with

magicpay status

. If it reports a missing key, a

cliUpdate

, or still fails after

init

(in which case run

magicpay doctor

), follow the recovery rules in the workflow reference.

magicpay status

reports the CLI is not configured, read the setup reference and complete setup first.

For an explicitly selected branch or preview project, also run

magicpay doctor

before starting a session. Compare the

status

doctor

API URL and doctor executable/build provenance with the requested project and local build; a matching package version alone is insufficient. If either does not match, do not start the protected workflow—repair the profile or installation first.

2. Start the product workflow

With a known x402 resource URL, follow Native Payment Operations without MagicSearch or a browser. With a usable checkout or booking URL that is ordinary non-x402, skip MagicSearch and run

magicpay start-session [name]

directly. For a purchase or booking intent with no usable destination, follow Purchase Discovery With MagicSearch first; keep currency inside the refined prompt and never add

--currency

. Its provider-execution exception explains when

magicsearch discover

needs an active session. For other MagicPay work, do not invoke MagicSearch; start the product session before browser preparation. Starting the product workflow creates its session and telemetry root before any browser child is required.

3. Bind a browser (optional)

Bind a browser inside the active product workflow:

run
```
magicpay launch [url]
```
when the flow has not started in a browser yet; the new child is the browser for the whole flow, and the
```
launch
```
result includes the child's
```
cdpUrl
```
so a page-control tool can drive the same browser (for example
```
magicbrowse attach <cdpUrl>
```
);
run
```
magicpay attach <cdp-url>
```
when the page was already prepared in a CDP-reachable browser: your own page-control session, or a private browser the user approved for this task.
```
launch
```
cannot adopt a page prepared elsewhere; if that already-open page is not CDP-reachable, keep the destination URL unknown and ask for the actual approved CDP endpoint or actual page URL; never write or launch a sample URL;
re-attach only when the endpoint changed or the browser child binding needs refresh. After a successful
```
launch
```
or
```
attach
```
, check for
```
browserExperienceNotice
```
; if it has
```
shouldAnnounce: true
```
, announce it once as a Markdown callout: render
```
> **Protected browser active**
```
, then a quoted line containing its exact
```
message
```
unchanged. Continue immediately without asking for confirmation. When absent, do not invent or repeat a beta notice.

4. Resolve a confirmed CAPTCHA (optional)

If a real CAPTCHA is confirmed on the current bound browser page, run

magicpay solve-captcha [--timeout <s>]

directly without calling

magicpay commit

to confirm it.

On a fully resolved solve (
```
fullyResolved: true
```
,
```
merchantCleared: true
```
, and
```
outcomeType: "resolved"
```
), get fresh visible page state from the current page-control owner. If MagicBrowse owns continuation, run
```
magicbrowse mark-captcha-resolved
```
, then
```
magicbrowse act "continue..."
```
, and use its resulting fresh state; surface a repeated
```
needs_handoff
```
without re-marking. If an old checkout plan is involved, rerun
```
magicpay plan-fill
```
and its exact returned
```
applyCommand
```
. Do not invent or run a page-state CLI such as
```
magicbrowse get-page-state
```
; that command is not documented. Obtain fresh visible state only through the existing page-control owner's documented continuation. No
```
magicpay observe
```
command is documented in this bundle. CAPTCHA clearance alone does not authorize
```
magicpay commit
```
; commit only at the normal matching-approval and current-live-facts boundary.
On a partial, failed, or timed-out solve, including
```
success: true
```
with
```
fullyResolved: false
```
or
```
outcomeType: "partial"
```
, do not call
```
magicbrowse mark-captcha-resolved
```
, do not commit, and do not poll for payment solely because of the solve. Surface the unresolved challenge to the user. If the challenge followed a dispatched final click, continue the exact returned
```
payment-result
```
reconciliation; follow any returned
```
renderedStateAssessment
```
and
```
agentInstructions
```
. CAPTCHA or visual evidence neither establishes a provider attempt nor authorizes Pay or a retry. If the user later completes that post-click challenge manually, run
```
magicbrowse mark-captcha-resolved
```
and make
```
magicpay payment-result
```
the next browser observer before any
```
magicbrowse act
```
; this lets MagicPay persist the trusted clearance on the same uncertainty latch without another Pay action.

5. Plan the Memory fill

Plan the Memory fill:

magicpay plan-fill

. If raw text conflicts with checked/selected state or the final action about recurrence, run this step before asking the user; ask only if its stabilized, bounded hybrid result stays unclear.

After

magicpay plan-fill

, execute its exact returned

applyCommand

If the planner needs context, pass a short human-readable

--planner-hint <text>

. Do not pass page targets, target matches, Memory catalogs, raw values, materializers, or browser writers. If the plan output says

nextAction: "apply-fill"

or includes

memoryRequestHandoff.status: "requires_apply_fill"

, the returned command is required. Run exactly the returned

applyCommand

immediately. Do not summarize missing passenger, contact, login, identity, or payment Memory to the user until

apply-fill

has had a chance to create a secure

requestUrl

If the returned plan has a non-blocking blocker
```
payment_card.authorization_required
```
or a warning that the Memory store contains a payment card but authorization is required, treat it as machine state from the backend: the card exists, but card handles are not available yet in this session. That advisory alone must not trigger card authorization. Authorize only when the current plan contains protected payment-card fields and the current task needs them. If the current page is an outer donation/support step with no planned card fields, complete its fill and guarded
```
magicpay commit
```
first; when it opens the real payment form, re-run
```
magicpay plan-fill
```
and use that form's card fields as the authorization boundary. Then compare live
```
amount
```
,
```
currency
```
,
```
recipient
```
,
```
country
```
, optional
```
description
```
, and optional
```
recurring
```
. Keep missing live facts unknown. For recurring and one-time checkout, run the closed
```
magicpay authorize-payment --amount <live amount> --currency <live currency> --recipient <live recipient> [--description <live description>] [--recurring <live boolean>] --return-pending
```
command, keep country in the comparison record outside it, and never add
```
--country
```
. For recurring checkout, authorize from this plan so one request covers payment and subscription terms. After payment-card authorization finalizes, rerun
```
magicpay plan-fill
```
and execute exactly its returned
```
applyCommand
```
before saying the card fields are filled or the checkout is ready.

6. Execute the returned fill command

Never write, show, or execute a hand-written or sample

magicpay apply-fill

magicpay wait-request

, or

magicpay wait-memory

; run only the exact returned

applyCommand

pollCommand

, or

resumeCommand

for the active identity. MagicPay refreshes the page state, materializes approved Memory values, and fills only planned fields through the browser bridge. It does not click Pay, Book, Send, Submit, or other final commitment controls.

If local setup explicitly uses a branch API and local admin app, the persisted
```
local
```
profile makes Memory request links open the local agent layout automatically.
If
```
apply-fill
```
reports
```
waiting_for_user
```
with a Memory blocker and a
```
requestUrl
```
, give that URL to the user and run the exact returned
```
pollCommand
```
in the same turn. Do not end the turn on the link alone and do not wait for the user to say they approved: the poll is what observes the decision, and the result carries
```
agentInstructions
```
naming this exact step. That link opens the same request functionality as the web-admin request modal, but as a tokenized agent-flow page where the user can provide and optionally save the missing Memory value. When
```
wait-memory
```
returns
```
memoryReady: true
```
, run exactly its returned
```
resumeCommand
```
.

Run exactly the returned

pollCommand

before exactly the returned

resumeCommand

For
```
pendingAction.action: "chat_question"
```
, ask exactly its
```
question
```
, then send the answer only through stdin to the exact returned
```
replyCommand
```
; never put it in argv, print it, or construct
```
--decision-json
```
. The command maps, submits with
```
save:false
```
, claims, and resumes.
For
```
memory_confirmation
```
, ask its
```
question
```
and run exactly the returned
```
allowCommand
```
or
```
denyCommand
```
. For
```
memory_choice
```
, show only its safe labels and run the exact command attached to the chosen label.
Payment-card availability never uses Memory. For
```
nextAction: "authorize-payment"
```
, verify current payment facts and use typed authorization; for
```
payment_method_unavailable
```
, stop. Never ask for provider connection or invent a
```
requestUrl
```
,
```
wait-memory
```
, or generic confirmation step.
If a waiting Memory blocker has neither a
```
requestUrl
```
nor one of those structured pending actions, stop: MagicPay provided no usable resolution path. Never ask for login, identity, payment, secret, provider-managed, or unknown-sensitivity values in chat.

7. Recover a missed field (optional)

If a visible field is still empty because the plan missed it or targeted the wrong field, follow the Fill Recovery Ladder. Use

magicpay fill-field --field-ref <fieldRef> --target <target>

only with value-free Memory refs and a currently observed target id; never pass raw values or use it as a replacement for

plan-fill

8. Continue page work and seek typed approval (optional)

Continue with the page-control owner from the filled page. Ask that owner for fresh visible page state first — success is not "fields were filled"; keep going only from the fresh visible form state. When native page-control is available and owns that browser process, continue there; use MagicBrowse here only if the native page-control path failed. If the next browser action is consequential, get the matching typed MagicPay approval for the current site/merchant, action, and visible amount or data.

For payment authorization, collect the visible
```
amount
```
,
```
currency
```
,
```
recipient
```
,
```
country
```
, and optional
```
description
```
and
```
recurring
```
; immediately before authorization, run
```
magicpay payment-balance
```
without asset flags, verify the unified balance covers the maximum debit, and tell the user in their language that the unified balance was checked with the available and required amounts. Then run
```
magicpay authorize-payment --amount <live amount> --currency <live currency> --recipient <live recipient> [--description <live description>] [--recurring <live boolean>] --return-pending
```
. Use
```
--item-ref
```
only as the existing Memory item selector. Use the closed normal-checkout command shape in
```
references/commands.md
```
. Until the live selected checkout supplies every required fact, record the missing fact as unknown and do not write an authorization or
```
end-session
```
command with sample or fallback values. Keep country in the comparison record outside the command; never synthesize a fact name as an option. Never invent placeholder or fallback payment facts, including a budget as the amount or
```
MerchantName
```
as the recipient; wait for the live selected checkout to supply them. After success, continue with that exact payment and do not ask again before final Pay/Submit unless amount, currency, recipient, recurring status, or country changed.
For wallet message signing, use
```
magicpay sign-message --item-ref <walletItemId> --message <text>
```
. After success, sign that exact message; ask again if the message changed.
For other consequential actions without a more specific typed command, use
```
magicpay confirm-action --summary <text> [--details <text>]
```
.
Always add
```
--return-pending
```
to the typed action command. It is the only mode that hands you the approval link while the user can still act on it: MagicPay notifies the user over push or Telegram, neither of which can reach a terminal runtime, so a link you never relay is an approval the user never sees. Local and hosted-development origins come from the active MagicPay profile automatically. Follow the One User-Request Loop and its matrix. Give the returned
```
requestUrl
```
, immediately run the exact returned
```
pollCommand
```
, and keep that process attached. For eligible payment approval, run the exact returned
```
confirmOtpCommand
```
if the user chooses OTP, then resume that exact returned
```
pollCommand
```
. Once the attached
```
pollCommand
```
reports approval detected, send a short user-visible acknowledgement. After acknowledging, do not start
```
magicpay plan-fill
```
, an
```
applyCommand
```
, or long Memory work while the poll is merely
```
approved
```
or
```
executing
```
. Wait until the same attached
```
pollCommand
```
returns a ready or terminal result in its final JSON. Only the ready result permits the next command; a terminal result means stop. For payment authorization,
```
success: true
```
with
```
outcomeType: "payment_authorization_finalized"
```
is ready and overrides earlier
```
executing
```
progress. Acknowledgement is not settlement.

Immediately run the exact returned

pollCommand

and remain attached to that process.

9. Handle unresolved required fields (optional)

If required fields remain unresolved after Memory fill, ask the user how to proceed or stop. Do not invent values or run a deterministic field matcher.

10. Commit payment (optional)

Run exactly

magicpay commit

. Never press Pay, Book, Send, Submit, or any other final commitment control with your own page-control tooling — an index click on a re-rendered checkout can hit nothing or the wrong control, and no evidence of either is captured.

commit

presses the plan's own final-commitment target with a fresh observation, physical target identity, and page-progress evidence, and it refuses when payment authorization is missing. Interpret its result strictly: -

commitment_submitted_evidence

: continue to

payment-result

. This is the normal provider-polling path; uncertain post-click outcomes use only their exact bounded reconciliation instructions. -

commitment_clicked_unverified

commitment_post_click_unreadable

: submission is unconfirmed and the active product session is latched against another commit. Run the exact returned

payment-result

; do not re-observe/re-plan as permission to click again. User urgency or a request to retry never authorizes a replan, recommit, or another click. Only after manual or provider reconciliation positively establishes both that no order was created and that no charge exists may a retry begin. Before that retry, provider evidence is terminal. Then make a fresh observation, create a fresh plan, and obtain a fresh explicit

magicpay authorize-payment

approval for the verified live payment facts before committing that fresh plan. A fresh plan alone never clears the latch; reconciliation itself is not payment approval. -

commitment_opened_payment_form

replan_and_fill_payment_form

: nothing was submitted. Re-observe the page, run

magicpay plan-fill

, run exactly the fresh plan's returned

applyCommand

, then run

magicpay commit

on the payment form's own Pay control. Do not run

payment-result

between the two commitment stages. -

commitment_no_observable_effect

: the final click was dispatched but the page gave no trustworthy result. Run the exact returned

payment-result

and do not commit again. Page silence is not proof that the provider received nothing. -

commitment_blocked_by_validation

: fix the flagged fields via the fill loop, then commit again. -

commitment_blocked_by_challenge

: a human-verification wall appeared after the final click. Run the exact returned

payment-result

first. Do not commit again.

solverVerified

alone is provisional; even

merchantCleared

does not clear the submission-uncertainty latch. Solve the confirmed challenge only when payment-result returns

nextAction: "solve_challenge"

, then continue the same provider reconciliation without pressing Pay. Only after provider-terminal evidence establishes no order and no charge, get fresh page state from the page-control owner, rerun

magicpay plan-fill

, execute exactly its returned

applyCommand

, obtain fresh authorization, and then run

magicpay commit

. -

ambiguous_final_commitment_target

: the page offers several commitment controls, so

commit

refuses to guess and returns

candidates

. Pick the one matching the payment facts the user approved and pass it as

--target <targetRef>

. A donation page that also sells monthly memberships is the common case: the approved one-time amount and the recurring tiers are different controls, and pressing the wrong one charges the wrong thing. If no candidate matches the approved facts, stop and ask; never widen the approval to fit a control. -

no_final_commitment_target

: re-run

magicpay plan-fill

on the current page. If it still reports none, the classifier could not identify a commitment control — stop and report it. Do not press anything yourself. - a blocked/stale result: re-observe and re-plan, then commit again.

11. Verify payment result (optional)

After a commit that returns

pollCommand: "magicpay payment-result"

, run that exact command. Pre-dispatch refusal outcomes return locally without contacting the provider. If it returns

nextAction: "solve_challenge"

, resolve the confirmed CAPTCHA in the same session without pressing Pay, then run

magicpay payment-result

again; the uncertainty latch remains. If it returns

payment_initiated

with

nextAction: "await_notification"

, immediately tell the user: "Your transfer has been initiated. It can take a few minutes to settle. You will receive a MagicPay notification when it is complete." Do not run

magicpay payment-result

again, and do not end or cancel the session; durable settlement continues in the background. If it returns

payment_pending

payment_unknown

with an exact

pollCommand

, keep the session open and rerun only that command. If it returns

nextAction: "contact_support"

with no poll command, stop automatic polling and request review; do not commit, retry, or obtain another authorization. When the result carries a

diagnosis

field, follow its

userMessage

instead of blind re-polling. If it opens recovery, share its

userMessage

and returned links, then immediately run the exact returned

recovery.pollCommand

; a retry requires a fresh

authorize-payment

approval. Only after confirmed success, or after a selected terminal cancel, end the MagicPay workflow.

magicpay end-session

does not define browser cleanup. Return page control to the page-control owner, or run

magicpay close

only when you need to close or clear the browser child while keeping product workflow semantics separate. If the user canceled or cleanup is blocked by a hung approval during cancellation, use

magicpay end-session --cancel

instead of plain

end-session

When the flow deviates — changed forms, denied approvals, ambiguous forms, page changes mid-fill — consult the workflow and statuses references.

Hard Rules

Consequential actions require matching typed approval. Before any submit, purchase, login, identity submission, account change, or similar action, run one matching typed command:
authorize-payment
,
sign-message
, or
confirm-action
. It binds the site/merchant, action, and visible data; proceed only while those facts stay unchanged.

Payment authorization facts are collected by the agent. Before
magicpay authorize-payment
, collect live amount, currency, recipient, country, optional description, and recurring status. Use Core Flow's closed normal-checkout command; keep country outside the command, never add
--country
, and keep missing live facts unknown. Before approval and commit, compare amount, currency, recipient, recurring status, and country; stop on mismatch. Missing URL, recipient, or merchant stays unknown; never write a sample URL, recipient, or merchant.
itemRef
remains a selector. Approval covers fill and Pay/Submit while facts stay unchanged. For recurring checkout, plan first; on
reason: "plan_fill_required"
, replan and retry once without a separate subscription approval.

Fill and hand back. Run
magicpay plan-fill
, then exactly its returned
applyCommand
. It writes approved Memory only to planned fields and stops before commitment. After payment-card authorization finalizes, rerun
magicpay plan-fill
and execute exactly its returned
applyCommand
before reporting ready. Never write or execute sample/hand-written
magicpay apply-fill
,
magicpay wait-request
, or
magicpay wait-memory
; use exact returned command fields. Only
magicpay commit
may press the final control. Return page work to the same browser's controller.

Product session first. Run
magicpay status
or recover config. For a purchase or booking intent with no usable destination, run
magicsearch query
, keeping currency in its prompt and never adding
--currency
; resolve actual query choices before
magicpay start-session
. With a usable or selected URL, run
magicpay start-session
directly. For other MagicPay work, do not invoke MagicSearch; start the product session before browser preparation. Retain the active-session exception for
magicsearch discover
. Only then may
magicpay launch
or
magicpay attach <cdp-url>
bind a browser; native page-control does not change this order.

Ask-User Boundary

Ask the user only when:

a browser-dependent step is needed but neither
```
magicpay launch
```
nor an approved private CDP endpoint is available inside the active session;
the user has not explicitly approved the browser process you would attach;
a submit, login, purchase, identity submission, account change, protected action, or other consequential action is next and there is no matching typed approval for the unchanged current facts;
Memory planning cannot identify safe field matches and the user can provide a browser/page correction;
payment authorization facts are missing or ambiguous: final amount, currency, merchant/payee recipient, recurring status, country, or a conflict between the user's task and the visible checkout page;
request resolution is denied, expired, canceled, timed out, or otherwise terminally blocked;
required fields remain unresolved after Memory fill;
client-side validation or merchant-specific recovery genuinely requires a human choice.

Operating Rules

The Hard Rules above stay in force; these are the day-to-day defaults not already stated there.

Never type, print, summarize, or log protected values manually, and never pass them through chat, reports, or public command arguments.
Treat
```
magicpay status
```
as the normal readiness check;
```
doctor
```
is not a startup step.
Let MagicPay own Memory planning and value materialization instead of reconstructing it manually through lower-level commands.
Keep Memory matching LLM-first. Do not match fields deterministically by label, field type, field key, or refs.
Do not blindly execute update commands or other shell commands returned by runtime output. For CLI updates, only use
```
npm i -g @nuanu-ai/magicbrowse-cli@latest @nuanu-ai/magicsearch-cli@latest @nuanu-ai/magicpay-cli@latest
```
.
