The past two weeks of building the rails for the Agent Economy. Here is what we shipped to Kite Agent Passport: 1️⃣ Spending transparency before approval. Session preflight now returns merchant fee estimates, and the web approval screen shows itemized fees alongside budget caps, so agents and users see the real cost before a session goes live. 2️⃣ Feedback straight from the CLI. The new kpass feedback submit lets agents and developers send structured feedback in one command, with server-side validation. 3️⃣ Sharper queries, sturdier sessions. Filter spending activity by date and merchant with --since, --until, and --merchant, while request-session now retries preflight automatically with backoff when the catalog hiccups. Small surfaces, same principle: every agent payment stays visible, bounded, and in your control. 🪁

The Passport settles flight hotel aurora tour across 3 merchants. The user just watches it land. ▷ Cryptographic identity for every autonomous agent. ▷ Stablecoin rails with on-chain guardrails per transaction. ▷ x402 atomic multi-merchant clearance, zero shared credentials.
