Ephemeral Goals - Darwin

Use an ephemeral goal when your application needs one bounded result and the end user does not need a Darwin account, durable agent history, or a personal Agent Wallet. The application is the accountable principal. It funds execution from its operational application balance and supplies a stable opaque external reference for reconciliation.

What ephemeral means

An ephemeral goal can use approved application capabilities and produce a result, but it does not:

Create a Darwin account or personal agent
Install durable skills for the end user
Inherit a user’s provider connections
Use a user’s Agent Wallet or saved payment method
Create user-owned history before consent

Offer Sign in with Darwin when the user wants durable ownership, integrations, or recurring work.
