Workspace settings
What is configured at the workspace level rather than per agent or per account.
Three levels of configuration exist and it is worth knowing which is which, because a setting looked for at the wrong level is the most common reason somebody concludes a thing cannot be done.
| Level | Holds | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Account | You, across every workspace | Sign-in, billing identity, credit balance, provider authorisations |
| Workspace | The operational boundary | Members and roles, which connections are selected, Automatic Purchasing |
| Agent | One worker | Brief, model, tool list, spending ceiling, control mode, approval routing |
Automatic Purchasing lives here
It is a workspace permission, enabled and acknowledged by the workspace creator. It is not part of an agent's configuration, it is not implied by any control mode, and raising an agent's autonomy does not turn it on. If you are auditing a workspace, check it directly rather than inferring it from anything else.
Connection selection
Provider authorisations belong to your account; a workspace selects from them. Selecting one makes it available to be added to an agent's tool list — it does not give every agent access. Both steps are required and they are separate on purpose.
