## Self-Improvement

After successful purchases, the system can analyze the trace and store hints that help future sessions on the same site. The goal is less time, fewer tokens, and a higher success rate.

## Provider Trust

E-commerce outside marketplaces is messy. Agentic actors can maintain a shared trust layer by updating provider scores after purchase operations.

## Limits

Hints and trust scores only improve ranking and navigation; they do not override live page checks, user approvals, KYC limits, payment policy, or Memory requests.
