Issue reference
The journey cost more than its budget
- BUDGET_EXHAUSTED
- Reach checkout
- —
- Medium
What it means
tragent reports this at the “Reach checkout” stage. The question there is “Can it get through checkout?” Every required field has to be labelled, and no step may need a human gesture only a person can make.
What it does to an agent
Agents can usually carry on, but more slowly or less sure of what they found, and an unsure agent is likelier to recommend another store.
How to fix it
Pages this dense cost an agent more to read than the sale is worth. Trim the markup an agent must parse, or raise the suite budget.
Check the fix
Run the check that reported BUDGET_EXHAUSTED again after the change. The scan needs no account; an issue found during an AI shopping test needs that test run again.
