Abstract:

   This document defines the OpenA2A Agent Authorization Protocol (AAP),
   a protocol for authorization in AI agent systems.  AAP provides
   mechanisms for agent identity assertion, scoped capability grants,
   cross-agent delegation, behavioral attestation, cross-organizational
   federation, and revocation propagation.  AAP is the authorization
   complement to agent communication protocols such as A2A and the Model
   Context Protocol, in the same way that OAuth 2.0 complements HTTP for
   web applications.

   AAP has two layers.  The token model, defined in this document,
   specifies the AAP credentials and assertions: what they contain, how
   they are signed, and how they are verified.  A companion broker and
   resolution layer specifies how an agent obtains and exercises a grant
   without the credential value ever entering the agent's reasoning
   context.  This confinement property, that no secret, temporary
   credential, or backend identifier reaches the agent or the model
   behind it, is the primary design goal of the protocol.
