-
Cloud-project provisioning. You can now provision and manage a dedicated cloud project end to end. Create a project, fund it from your Kite wallet with a passkey approval, retrieve deploy credentials and a ready-to-run deploy command, then pause, resume, or delete it as needed. Spend is metered against the project's prepaid credit, so costs stay bounded. The
kpass cloud projectcommand group drives the full lifecycle from the CLI. -
Sandbox test mode. A new isolated test environment lets you exercise agent payment flows without touching live data or real funds. Switching into sandbox mode gives you a testnet wallet and a faucet for test tokens, with sessions, payments, and activity kept fully separate from your production account — so you can validate an integration before going live.
-
Step-up browser approval for wallet sends. When sending funds requires step-up verification, you can now complete the passkey approval in your browser. The approval page shows the transfer amount, asset, recipient, and sending wallet before you confirm, then reports the outcome with the transaction hash. This works from both the web app and the CLI — the CLI hands off a browser approval link and reports the result back. To get the CLI flow, upgrade to the latest
kpass(Bundle 32) viacli.gokite.ai. -
Connect Passport to ChatGPT over MCP. A hosted MCP endpoint with OAuth lets you add Kite Passport as a connector in ChatGPT and other MCP clients. Once connected and authorized, your agent can discover and pay for x402 services and create and list spending sessions directly from the chat client.
-
Solana settlement for x402 payments. Agents can now pay merchants whose x402 services settle on Solana. Payment is collected from your Kite wallet as usual, and settlement to the merchant is handled automatically in USDC — extending paid-service reach beyond EVM with no change to how you authorize spend.
Improvements
- 13 new services reachable for x402 payments. The x402 service catalog gained 13 newly allowlisted hosts, now live, so agents can pay them without requesting manual allowlisting. The additions span media generation (image and video, text-to-speech, memes), social and web data, file hosting, print-on-demand, travel data, IP geolocation, and crypto data. No action is needed — the new services are reachable now.
