spendctl

Approves or denies a payment that sandbox_pay reported as waiting for approval, as the human approver would with `spendctl approve`. Use it only with an approval id from this sandbox; in the real product a human decides, in the sandbox the model plays that role. Returns the approval id and its new status (approved or denied). An approved payment completes when sandbox_pay is called again with the same approvalId; a denied one stays refused. Deciding the same approval twice keeps the first decision.

Shows the sandbox agent's spending limits, what has been spent in each window and what is left. Use it before a paid call when the remaining budget matters, or after a refusal to see which limit was hit. Returns the agent name and mode, the per-request limit, the approval threshold, what happens when a budget is exceeded, the allowed hosts and one line per window (hourly, daily: spent, limit, remaining). Read-only; changes nothing.

Returns the sandbox's spendctl.yaml as text: the preset name and the agent's budgets, allowed hosts and approval rules. Use it to explain why a payment was refused or held, or to show what a spendctl policy file looks like. Read-only; the sandbox policy cannot be changed, create a sandbox with another preset instead.

Lists the sandbox agent's most recent payment attempts, newest first: paid (amount and mock transaction hash), refused (reason codes) and waiting for approval. Use it to report what happened so far or to find a receipt id; after a hold, the approval id is in the sandbox_pay result. Returns up to `limit` lines, one per attempt, with time, receipt id, method, URL, amount and status, or "No payments yet." Read-only.

Creates an isolated spendctl sandbox and returns its sandbox_id. Call it first: every other tool needs the sandbox_id, and one sandbox serves a whole conversation (create another only to try a different preset). The sandbox is a real spendctl sidecar with a throwaway wallet, a mock x402 facilitator and two mock paid APIs; no real money moves and nothing outside the sandbox is reachable. Returns the sandbox_id, the agent's policy (budgets, allowed hosts, approval rule) and the paid endpoints with their prices. Limits: 5 sandboxes per minute per client; a sandbox expires after 2 hours without calls (24 hours at most). Example: preset "strict" to see refusals, "approvals" to see a payment held for a human.

Fetches one of the sandbox's paid endpoints (HTTP 402, x402) through the spendctl sidecar, which applies the sandbox agent's budget, allowlist and approval policy, pays with the throwaway wallet if allowed, and returns the response. Use it for every paid call in the sandbox: with dryRun to see the decision without paying, with approvalId to complete a payment that was held and then approved. The endpoints are https://weather.sandbox.spendctl.dev/weather?city=<name> ($0.01) and https://search.sandbox.spendctl.dev/search?q=<query> ($0.02), as listed by sandbox_create and documented at https://spendctl.dev/docs/sandbox/; any other host is refused. Returns a one-line summary (HTTP status, amount paid, decision, receipt id) followed by the response body, or the refusal with its reason, or an approval id when the payment is waiting for a human. Only sandbox hosts exist and no real funds are involved; the request is always a GET and responses are clipped at 20,000 characters.
