PROTOCOL CONVERGENCE

One authority contract across agent and commerce protocols.

MCP, A2A, x402 and Virtual Card inputs normalize to one PMAS Action Request before they ever reach Paylogee’s authority boundary.

PERMANENT INVARIANTAdapters normalize. They never authorize.

No adapter may convert DECLINE to APPROVE, manufacture delegated authority, bypass policy or execute a rail merely because normalization succeeded.
