your agent can be tricked. your money can't.
an ai agent pays invoices through paypal. it can only pay 3 known vendors, up to $20.00 a payment and $50.00 a day. anything else becomes a paypal order only the owner can approve. write an invoice that makes it pay you.

the agent reads
invoices arrive as untrusted text. it has no defense against injection in its prompt. on purpose.
02
the gate decides
every payment goes through a policy gate on our server: vendor list, per-payment limit, daily cap, no double pays. only the gate holds the paypal credentials.
03
the owner approves
anything else becomes a paypal order. it only gets paid if the owner logs in to paypal and approves it. the agent can't.
