## What it does

This hosted service acts as a financial gateway for autonomous agent runs. It estimates task costs through `quote_agentic_budget`, evaluates spending limits with `check_budget_policy`, and asks for approval via `request_spend_approval`. When an execution finishes, `issue_spend_receipt` produces an expense record, and `export_usage_evidence` exports verifiable spending data.

The server runs over Streamable HTTP and requires a paid account. Backend code is private. Production calls will fail without a valid bearer token from the provider site. Clients send JSON-RPC payloads to `https://agenticbudgetrouter.clauxel.com/mcp` along with the `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header. Opening the endpoint directly in a web browser returns an authentication error in JSON format.

## When to use it
- Calculate agent workflow costs before launching runs
- Validate spending against budget policies
- Request formal approval for task expenses
- Generate digital receipts and export spend evidence

## Example prompts
- Estimate the cost for this workflow using `quote_agentic_budget`
- Check the spend policy and submit a quote through `request_spend_approval`
- Record the finished run and produce an expense receipt with `issue_spend_receipt`
