Agent Card vs Cody by Sourcegraph

Agent Card solves a critical but unglamorous problem in agentic AI: how do you let an agent pay for things without handing it your real credit card? The answer is a prepaid virtual Visa wallet your agent can draw on — fund it via Stripe, then let your Claude Code, ChatGPT, or MCP agent generate single-use virtual cards that auto-cancel after one transaction. The mental model is clean: you set a budget, the agent has a card, you get receipts. The API is MCP-compatible so agents can call it directly without human intervention. Cards can be scoped to specific merchants, capped at specific dollar amounts, and auto-cancelled on a time limit. Full transaction logs are available via API for auditing. This is the missing financial primitive for truly autonomous agents. Until now, letting an agent "buy something" required awkward human-in-the-loop approvals or giving it a full credit card with no guardrails. Agent Card provides the guardrails. It's a small piece of infrastructure that unlocks a class of agent capabilities that were previously too risky to build.
