🚀 AGNTCY Dir v1.0.0 Release
We are happy to announce the release of Directory v1.0.0, marking a significant
milestone in our commitment to provide a robust and scalable directory service for
publication, exchange, and discovery of information about multi-agentic systems over
a distributed peer-to-peer network.
This release consolidates improvements to the schema, tooling, synchronization mechanisms,
security features, and production deployment setup, ensuring enhanced reliability, better
integration capabilities, and support for a wider range of use cases.
🌟 Key Features
- Capability-Based Discovery: Agents publish structured metadata describing their
functional characteristics as described by the OASF.
The system organizes this information using hierarchical taxonomies, enabling efficient
matching of capabilities to requirements. - Verifiable Claims: While agent capabilities are often subjectively evaluated,
DIR provides cryptographic mechanisms for naming resolution, data integrity and
provenance tracking. This allows users to make informed decisions about agent selection. - Semantic Linkage: Components can be securely linked to create various relationships
like version histories for evolutionary development, collaborative partnerships where
complementary skills solve complex problems, and dependency chains for composite
agent workflows. - Distributed Architecture: Built on proven distributed systems principles, DIR uses
content-addressing for global uniqueness and implements distributed hash tables (DHT)
for scalable content discovery and synchronization across decentralized networks. - Runtime Capabilities: Provides agents the ability to register and discover
at runtime, allowing dynamic adaptation and interaction between agents in live environments. - Tooling and Integration: Provides a suite of command-line tools, SDKs, and APIs
to facilitate interaction with the system, enabling developers to manage Directory
records, node operations, and cross-system interactions programmatically.
Out-of-box integration with exiting OCI registries with full synchronization support
to keep data up-to-date across DIR deployments and networks. - Security and Trust: Incorporates robust security measures including cryptographic
signing, verification of claims, secure communication protocols, and access controls
to ensure the integrity and authenticity of Directory records and nodes. - Live Public Deployment: The Directory service is now live and publicly accessible,
allowing organizations, developers and users to interact with the system in real-world scenarios.
