UCPAudit

Merchants face several emerging protocols and vendor framings for machine-readable discovery, delegated payment and agent checkout. A public scan can reveal selected endpoints and catalog signals, but it cannot establish payment security, delegated authority, production reliability or organization-wide readiness.

The supplied research confirms two free self-serve readiness scanners, including a direct scoring competitor. It finds no reviewed paid product adding board reports, effort-backed remediation and longitudinal deltas. The proposed four requirements come from one vendor framing rather than a supplied universal standard, and signed output would prove only bounded origin and integrity—not truth or court admissibility.

A published specification, merchant-authorized scope, public observation, supplied evidence, requirement mapping, finding candidate, owner disposition, remediation, retest, board approval, protocol conformance and production readiness are separate. UCPAudit assembles evidence; it never certifies payment security, compliance or agent-checkout readiness.
