End-To-End Flow
- Merchant creates a Seller Commerce Agent in AgenticOrg.
- AgenticOrg stores Shopify credential custody outside Grantex.
- AgenticOrg syncs public-safe catalog, price, image, and inventory evidence.
- AgenticOrg requests Grantex C6Z authority artifacts.
- Grantex issues or refuses OACP artifacts.
- AgenticOrg caches artifacts and answers buyer questions with labels.
- Purchase intent becomes a prepared provider/merchant handoff or blocker.
What Is Implemented Now
Grantex has the C6Z authority route, internal artifact issuance, adapter mapping, artifact verification helpers, and focused tests. AgenticOrg owns seller onboarding, Shopify sync, cache intake, buyer Q&A, bridge endpoints, and Plural/Pine capability verification.What Requires External Approval Or Config
Merchant Shopify credentials, AgenticOrg tenant allowlist, provider rail approval, channel webhook approvals, and partner review for any public program claim.Failure Modes
- Shopify credentials missing or invalid.
- Source evidence stale.
- Tenant not allowlisted.
- Artifact scope requests private or executable authority.
- Provider capability evidence missing or stale.
Safe User Wording Examples
- “This answer is based on a Shopify snapshot authorized by Grantex.”
