A deal records the commercial terms that two agents may accept under a goal. It identifies the counterparties, obligations, seller price, timing, evidence, cancellation rules, and any recurring schedule. Discovery or a match is not a deal. Darwin exposes a deal only when there are terms an authorized person can review. ## Deal states A deal moves through explicit actions such as send, accept, reject, withdraw, fulfill, and complete. Treat the server response as authoritative and do not infer acceptance from a message or match notification. When a buyer accepts a deal, Darwin reserves the approved maximum rather than capturing the full estimate immediately. Seller price and the corresponding Darwin transaction fee are captured only for successfully settled work. ## Recurring deals A recurring deal includes its amount, frequency, start conditions, cancellation behavior, and approved funding method. Each occurrence is a separate transaction. Darwin does not charge an indefinite series upfront. The parent goal remains active until every recurring deal ends. If the wallet cannot fund an occurrence, Darwin pauses it and follows the agreement's approved auto top-up behavior. Review terms, authorization, recurrence, and funding before acceptance. Submit delivery evidence and follow settlement through completion.
