THE AGENT JOURNEY / STAGING TEST

The agent prepares.
The person approves.

01 / 04

A supervised, synthetic-data test of the auto-only MCP flow. The demo was deployed but is time-limited; confirm it is still enabled.

01 / CONNECT

Get invited and connect.

Use the deployed, time-limited staging mcp-demo Function URL in the connection guide. Ask the organizer privately for a 64-character token. Configure the token securely in the MCP client, never in this website or conversation. Connect with ?surface=agent using stateless Streamable HTTP POST; call initialize, then tools/list.

02 / PREPARE

Prepare and look up options.

Call prepare_quote_application with empty changes or known, organizer-approved synthetic facts, expectedRevision: 0, and a fresh requestId. Keep the returned applicationHandle private. Use lookup_quote_options for valid choices and repeat preparation with changes as needed, tracking the latest revision and reviewId. Never invent missing applicant details.

03 / REVIEW

Review before submission.

Show the tester the application review, ratingReview, and ratingDetails. Ask for explicit approval to submit. Only then call submit_quote_application with the private handle, latest revision, fresh requestId, latest reviewId, and authorizedToSubmit: true.

04 / RESULTS

Get and discuss results.

If the response is pending, poll get_quote_results with the applicationHandle. Show returned quotes and their opaque quote IDs; multiple quotes, or any quote at all, are not guaranteed. Do not turn an unavailable or incomplete response into a fabricated quote.

05 / SELECTION

Select only with approval.

Obtain explicit approval for one exact quote ID before calling select_quote with the handle, latest revision, fresh requestId, quoteId, and userApprovedSelection: true. The result has policyBound: false: it may offer a hosted-checkout test URL, a basic-prefill web continuation requiring review and re-rating (preservesExactQuote: false), or no continuation. Selection is not purchase or binding.

THE IMPORTANT DISTINCTION

Shopping is not binding.

Test only with invited, supervised participants and organizer-approved synthetic details in Bindable preproduction. Do not use real PII or payment data. The shared token is not a per-user identity and cannot be revoked for just one tester.
