TL;DR — Anthropic's Project Deal had 69 employees use Claude agents to buy and sell goods through Slack — 186 deals totaling over $4,000 in one week, with no pre-baked negotiation protocol. Across four parallel runs, Opus 4.5 sellers earned $2.68 more per item and Opus buyers paid $2.45 less than Haiku-represented users; when an Opus seller met a Haiku buyer, the average price hit $24.18 vs $18.63 in Opus-on-Opus matchups. Tactical implication: make product data, pricing rules, and return policies machine-readable now, because agent-mediated buyers are coming and weaker agents will pay more without their humans noticing.
