CrossingKey Production Control Plane

CrossingKey Production Control Plane is a founder-built, payment-aware automation system for moving requests through a controlled operating path: intake, authorization, manifest validation, approval gates, execution, receipts, and audit and recovery controls.

It was built to address a recurring systems problem: automation can connect tools and run actions, but it becomes difficult to operate safely when payment state, approvals, validation, evidence, and recovery are scattered across separate scripts and services.

I designed the control plane as an inspectable workflow rather than a chain of hidden background actions. Each request moves through defined states and boundaries:

Intake captures the request and required context.

Authorization establishes whether an action may proceed.

Manifest validation checks the declared work, constraints, and expected handling.

Approval gates hold high-impact actions for human review.

Execution runs approved automation.

Receipts preserve evidence of what occurred.

Audit and recovery controls support review, failure handling, and continuity.

The build produced commerce-edge v1.3.x source, a money manifest, a provider end-to-end test script, release gates, security limits, runbooks, README and provenance documentation, plus storefront and payment-link mappings.

Stripe sandbox API and PaymentIntent workflows were exercised with idempotency controls and a pinned API version. The system also uses Python and shell automation alongside Cloudflare infrastructure.

Coinbase/CDP and x402 were configured as part of the architecture. A live paid API transaction through those components has not yet been publicly verified.

For teams building AI automation, agent workflows, or payment-aware operations, I can adapt this approach into a defined delivery such as:

system and workflow architecture

API and payment-flow design

approval, security, and failure boundaries

validation rules and evidence/receipt design

release gates, runbooks, and technical handoff documentation

AI automation and workflow architecture

payment-aware system design

API integration and PaymentIntent workflow handling

Python and shell automation

Cloudflare infrastructure

approval gates, auditability, and recovery planning

release readiness and operational documentation

This is active, founder-built technical work by CrossingKey Intelligence. It represents an implementation and systems-engineering project, not third-party client work, and makes no claim of unverified external results or transaction volume.
