Abstract:

   Agent Envelope Exchange (AEE) defines a minimal, transport-
   independent JSON envelope format for communication between autonomous
   AI agents, traditional services, and human participants.  The
   envelope comprises 14 well-defined fields that provide message
   identity, typing, correlation, tracing, priority, and extensibility
   without prescribing payload semantics or transport mechanisms.  AEE
   separates the concerns of message routing and lifecycle management
   (the envelope) from domain-specific meaning (intent schemas),
   enabling portable, composable, and auditable workflows across
   heterogeneous agent frameworks.  This document specifies the envelope
   structure, validity rules, conformance levels, entity identifier
   conventions, a reserved intent namespace for protocol negotiation,
   and a referencing strategy that avoids envelope nesting.
