Autonomous Decision Making

- Treating the home page as actionable before an address is set -> merchant availability and fees are unreliable. - Ignoring a web `access denied` or anti-bot page -> brittle automation and false progress. - Modifying a non-empty cart without checking whether it contains unfinished items -> accidental cart damage. - Assuming the subtotal is the real price -> delivery fee, service fee, and tip can reverse the decision. - Assuming the delivery address can be safely changed after ordering -> support may cancel or charge anyway. - Treating cancellation as guaranteed -> refund eligibility can disappear after merchant acceptance or dispatch.
