agentproto

Open numbered standards for the markdown files agents read, write, and run from.

Code freezes intent at compile time. Text re-interprets it on every run.

AIP = Agentproto Improvement Proposal. Same model as ERCs (Ethereum), BIPs (Bitcoin), PEPs (Python) — but for the markdown primitives every agent runtime is converging on (AGENTS.md, SKILL.md, CLAUDE.md, OPERATOR.md, KNOWLEDGE.md, …).

One numbered spec per primitive. One place to look it up. One shared vocabulary across runtimes.

Rendered docs: https://agentproto.sh/docs · Status: 0.1.0-alpha
