Transaction Capability (T)

T(e) — The ability of an object to support AI-mediated transaction initiation, from inquiry to settlement coordination.

Description

Transaction capability means the object has defined action paths, APIs, or protocols that AI systems can use to initiate transactions. This includes availability checking, inquiry submission, booking workflows, and payment coordination.

Agent-Ready Market Infrastructure

Agent-Ready Market Infrastructure introduces the infrastructure layer for AI-mediated economies, specifying how economic entities, assets, and services can become discoverable, interpretable, comparable, verifiable, permissioned, and transaction-capable for AI agents. This document defines the Agent-Readiness Index (ARI) as a multiplicative measurement framework, the Global Agent-Readiness Index (GARI) for cross-border market access, universal Verified Property Records as persistent portable representation, jurisdictional legibility for legal interoperability, semantic portability for cross-system understanding, and computational eligibility as the prerequisite condition for allocative participation.
