PoliciesGovernance

Policy Version History and Rollback

Every change to a policy is now versioned. Each policy keeps a full history, and you can diff any two versions or roll back to an earlier one from the API.A version captures what the policy enforces: its metadata and its full rule set. New versions are appended automatically when you create a policy, change its metadata, or add, edit, or remove a rule. Rollback restores an earlier version and is recorded as its own version. When your organization requires it, rollback runs through the same governance approval workflow as any other policy change. See the version history guide.
WebhooksGovernanceSecurity

Governance and Approval Events Stream to Webhooks

Policy changes and approval decisions now emit webhook events, so you can feed them into a SIEM, GRC platform, or your own audit pipeline without polling the API.New events: policy.created, policy.updated, policy.deleted, approval.approved, approval.denied, and governance.approval.decided. Policy events carry the policy name, type, scope, and rule count. They never include the underlying rule values, so limits and thresholds stay out of the event payload. Every event is signed with the same HMAC-SHA256 signature as existing webhooks. See the webhooks guide for the full payload reference.

PoliciesSecurityOnboarding

Safer Defaults for New Organizations

New human organizations now start with editable starter guardrails: a $25 per-transaction limit, a $100 daily limit, and approval for payments above $10. Active starter policies are linked to new agents automatically, and approval requests have an owner email channel from the start.Organizations with no existing policy controls may also receive the starter guardrails during the upgrade. Rename, edit, deactivate, or delete them from Policies as you move to your own setup.

ApprovalsPayments
Reaching the final approval on a payment now submits the transaction automatically through the existing execution path, so approvers no longer need a separate execute step.Completed approvals link straight to the onchain transaction receipt, including on Tempo testnet, and show an attention state when custody execution cannot produce a receipt.
SDKSkillsApprovalsAgents

Approve Payments From Your Agent Skill

A new SDK endpoint lets an agent’s human owner approve or reject a pending payment without leaving the conversation, with owner, permission, sequencing, expiry, scope, rate-limit, and idempotency checks enforced server side.The conto and conto-hermes skills add pending-approvals, approve-request, and deny-request commands. Final approval returns the managed-wallet receipt, or hands back an external-wallet execute and confirm step for agents that hold their own keys.

You can now require owner or admin review before sensitive organization changes apply, covering API key creation, rotation, and revocation, policy and policy-rule edits, and agent freeze-configuration updates.Turn protected actions on in the Governance tab in settings, review each pending request with its full payload and audit trail, and optionally subscribe a webhook channel to governance.approval.requested and governance.approval.decided.

x402 Budgets Support Session-Aware Tracking

Conto now tracks x402 budgets by sessionId, so teams can measure burn rate and remaining budget for a specific API payment session instead of only viewing aggregate protocol spend.The SDK, public docs, and policy guides now expose the same session-aware x402 and MPP budget flows, making it easier to pre-authorize, record, and monitor machine-payable API usage with one consistent integration model.

CLISDKDeveloper Experience

CLI Quickstart Works End to End

The npx @conto_finance/create-conto-agent quickstart now produces a complete agent setup. The wizard creates a wallet, installs the conto CLI into your project so npx conto <command> resolves correctly, and writes a runnable example.mjs with an opt-in --execute step.New conto doctor command diagnoses auth, key scopes, wallet, custody mode, chain, balance, and base URL in one pass, backed by GET /api/sdk/setup.Standard SDK keys are documented as they actually behave: the preset covers the full payment lifecycle (payments:request, payments:execute, payments:approve, payments:confirm) plus read scopes, and the key creation response now lists the granted scopes.
