No, but it's open source so adding it would be good.

Do you have any details of the protocol and how does it work?

The availability group has a listener IP and port (often 1433) that SQL
connections are directed to. It is possible to have read only replicas of
the same database. So if a connection has ReadIntent in the connection
string it will go to a read only version.

No, the protocol used won't be the last but no compatibility problems known.
