Summary
Adds a guide for verifying agent identity and enforcing per-tool permissions
when multiple agents or third-party tools connect to the Stripe MCP server.
Complements RAKs and the security policy template work in #293 by addressing
agent-level authorization: verifying which agent is acting, not just what
API key it holds.
Why
When multiple agents share Stripe API keys or third-party agent frameworks
connect to the MCP server, there is no standard way to verify which agent
placed a charge or created a refund. This guide describes a deployment
pattern for environments that need agent-level attribution and per-tool
permission enforcement.
