Agentic Payment Protocol Audit

Note (dated 2026-08-04): a chain composes independent computations performed in an analytical order. No step's output is carried into the next step by the execution model; each step computes from its own declared inputs. This is true of every chain on this site, including chains whose per-step copy below reads as a data handoff.

A2A agent card validation > Google AP2 mandate building > X402 payload decode/flow simulation > Visa trusted agent protocol inspection — composite agentic payment protocol mandate.
