Coinbase for Agents introduces new Agent Controls

Coinbase is rolling out Agent Controls for Coinbase for Agents, its MCP that lets users research and trade through AI agents. The controls include a maximum trade size in USD, 24-hour volume limits, an auto-stop when portfolio loss passes a set percentage, and product permissions (coming soon) for crypto, equities, and derivatives. The controls run on Coinbase's servers, can be managed in the Coinbase app or on the web behind password and two-factor authentication, and cannot be changed by the agent itself.
