Connect an external wallet provider (e.g. Metanet/Babbage) to the agent. This allows real payments to be made using the user
AI agents use path402_connect_wallet to commit financial operations through Path402 — Tokenised Web Content for AI Agents — usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
This tool connects a wallet to the agent, enabling real financial transactions. Once connected, the agent gains the ability to authorize payments on behalf of the user, making it a financial risk. The direct enablement of real payments justifies the Financial category with high severity, as a misuse could lead to unauthorized spending.
