Solutions · Catena Docs

We've collected step-by-step recipes for common agent tasks here, along with setup guides for the tools your agents run in. Recipes start from a task (such as paying an invoice), while integrations start from the tool. Both use the parts described in How Catena works, so if a term is unfamiliar, that page will define it.

Recipes

Each recipe will walk you through a task, from the prompt you give your agent to confirming the result.

Bank transferPay a vendor invoicePay a vendor by ACH, with large payments waiting for an admin. x402Pay for an API callPay an x402 endpoint in USDC with a price ceiling. PoliciesRaise a limit for one taskAsk for a temporary increase to the one limit that blocked the agent.

Integrations

These pages cover setup for specific agent tools (Claude Code, Codex, Claude, ChatGPT, cloud coding agents, and Meta Muse). Each page will show you how to connect with the method that fits the tool, whether that is the CLI, an MCP connector, or a secret key.
