Transact / Negotiate AI Agents: 30 Real Examples

This directory currently includes 30 recipes for the transact / negotiate pattern, across 10 roles. Transact and negotiate agents take action around a commitment, such as a booking, purchase, price, or other exchange. They are among the most sensitive agent patterns because the output can affect money, access, inventory, or a relationship. The examples show bounded workflows where rules, limits, and confirmations are part of the design. This pattern is useful when the action space is clear and the value of speed is real, but it should never be treated as a license for opaque autonomy. Define allowed actions, price or policy boundaries, identity checks, approval thresholds, and a complete record of what happened. Start with a low-risk transaction or a preparation step, then expand only when controls and exception handling are proven. Every example makes its inputs, output, and handoff concrete, so you can compare real workflow boundaries before adapting the pattern to your own tools and process.
