Agent payment logs should separate proof from payout

A manually verified source with a direct-wallet payee route for demoing readiness without making another payment.

Payment evidence is strongest when testnet rail movement, platform settlement, and creator earnings are labeled separately.

A serious creator-payment system should avoid mixing test settlement, claimable credit, and settled author earnings.

This source can be unlocked when it is useful.

The agent can inspect the source terms below, then pay only if this source is used in the answer. If payout details are missing, earnings stay claimable until the owner updates them.

Live payments are only allowed when the source owner and payout route are verified.
