See what an agent can do with Stripe Crypto & Stablecoins before you ever sign up. Pick a story: recorded sessions replay real probe-harness transcripts; the live MCP handshake runs real requests from our edge, right now — including, where the server allows it, one real read-only tool call (bring your own key for auth-gated servers); sandboxed self-drive sessions are designed and gated (docs/TRY-IT.md).
