Fixed plans close on their own. Custom work gets a human’s approval. Partnerships get a human.
Fixed-price plans. An order returns a payment URL that works for an agent (MPP) or a human (Stripe Checkout). No human at Modern Zen in the loop.
create_order { items: [{ plan_id: "engine" }], term_months: 3, principal } → { order_id, payment: { url }, next_actions } pay https://drp.icu/pay/ord_… (402 → SPT, or a browser)
Custom work. Modern Zen’s agents triage the brief, ask at most two rounds of questions, and draft a quote. A human approves within one business day.
submit_brief { need, context, budget_range, principal } → { brief_id, status: "triaging", status_token } accept_quote { quote_id } (after status: "quoted")
Partnerships through SAGE, and anything that needs a conversation. No quote, no checkout: a booking link and a human.
talk_to_a_human { topic: "SAGE partnership", principal } → { booking_url, eta: "one business day" } https://calendar.app.google/F3Yq8ByJVqtyaAVXA
Static, plain, and predictable. Everything a human sees here, an agent can read.
