Internet-Draft draft-daniel-ai-agent-internet-architecture-00.txt is now available. Title: Architectural Requirements for Supporting AI Agents on the Internet Author: Soohong Daniel Park Name: draft-daniel-ai-agent-internet-architecture-00.txt Pages: 16 Dates: 2026-08-13 Abstract: Autonomous AI agents are evolving from interactive assistants into networked software workloads that discover services, invoke tools, delegate authority, transact, communicate with other agents, and act asynchronously on behalf of humans and organizations. Existing Internet protocols provide strong foundations, but agent autonomy, dynamic delegation, machine-speed execution, and cross-domain interaction create requirements that span multiple protocol families. This document describes architectural requirements for supporting AI agents on the Internet across naming and discovery, HTTP, authentication, authorization and delegation, TLS and workload identity, asynchronous messaging, capability and intent-based resolution, payments, provenance, auditability, revocation, security, and privacy. It favors profiling and extending existing Internet protocols over defining a monolithic new agent protocol, and identifies the need for IETF-wide architectural coordination.
