The open protocol separates agent identity from permission to act on a customer account. Delegated access is optional.
Editorial assessmentChecked: [spec]

Decagon announced PACT on October 6, developed with Instinct. It connects personal agents to businesses’ support agents. The public repository includes a specification, client code and a reference stack under Apache 2.0.
PACT Identity alone does not prove ownership of a customer account. PACT Delegated adds customer login and approved permissions. Providers decide which personal agents to admit.

What changes for users
Support teams evaluating order changes should ask which PACT profile their provider implements and which actions require customer consent. Protocol support alone is insufficient evidence of account-level authorization.
