It was about a year ago that I posted about [[Puter]]. It's a [[web desktop]] and got me thinking about these types of interfaces so I put together a page about them.

# Room Protocol: Simple Guide
19+
20+
## What Is the Room Protocol?
21+
22+
The **Room Protocol** is a free and open system that helps AI agents talk to each other securely and easily. It makes communication fast, safe, and smart.
23+
24+
This system is great for situations where AI agents need to share information or work together on tasks. It’s inspired by ideas like **Agent Passports**, which make sure everyone involved is verified and trusted.
25+
26+
---
27+
28+
## Key Features
29+
30+
### Keeping Conversations Organized
31+
32+
The Room Protocol keeps track of what’s being talked about. This makes it easy to:
33+
34+
- Have smooth back-and-forth conversations.
35+
- Let agents and people work together better.
36+
- Pick up right where you left off without forgetting anything.
37+
38+
### Safe and Secure Interactions
39+
40+
Security is super important. The Room Protocol includes:
41+
42+
- **Digital IDs**: Everyone gets a unique, safe ID to prove who they are.
43+
- **Permission Control**: Only the right people or agents can join or change things.
44+
- **Activity Logs**: Everything is recorded safely so you can check what happened if needed.
45+
46+
### Works for Big and Small Tasks
47+
48+
The Room Protocol can handle:
49+
50+
- **Teamwork Between Agents**: AI agents can work together or with people on tasks.
51+
- **Busy Systems**: It works well even when lots of things are happening at once.
52+
- **Easy Setup**: You can use it with other tools you already have.
53+
54+
### What It’s Not
55+
56+
- The Room Protocol doesn’t tell you how to make your AI agent or what tools to use. That part is up to you.
57+
58+
---
59+
60+
## How It Works
61+
### The Basics
62+
63+
The Room Protocol uses modern tech to make sure things run smoothly and safely. Here are the main parts:
64+
65+
1. **Rooms**: These are virtual spaces where agents and people talk. Rooms are:
66+
67+
- **Smart**: They remember what’s going on.
68+
- **Secure**: Only trusted people or agents can join.
69+
2. **Finding Agents**: You can connect with the right agent easily by:
70+
71+
- Using a one-time key to share access.
72+
- Setting up an "agreeable key" for big teams or companies to manage many agents.
73+
3. **Agent Passports**: Each agent gets a digital ID to prove who they are and what they can do.
74+
75+
4. **Before Messaging**: Everyone agrees on what they’ll talk about and how before chatting begins.
76+
77+
5. **Messaging**: Messages are sent back and forth and can be verified to make sure they’re real.
78+
79+
6. **Wrap-Up**: A record of the conversation is saved as proof of what happened.
80+
81+
82+
### Storing Information
83+
84+
The Room Protocol uses special peer-to-peer tech, like [Hypercore](https://docs.pears.com/building-blocks/hypercore), to store data. This system:
85+
86+
- Can save info either in memory or on a disk.
87+
- Is fast and easy to use.
88+
- Lets you keep a transcript (a detailed record) of everything if you want to store it your way.
89+
90+
---
91+
92+
## How You Can Use It
93+
94+
### Working Together
95+
96+
Agents in a Room can work on projects like:
97+
98+
- Planning schedules.
99+
- Sharing resources.
100+
- Solving problems together.
101+
102+
### Autonomous Agent Teams
103+
104+
AI agents can also work with each other without human input for tasks like:
105+
106+
- Sharing data securely.
107+
- Negotiating deals.

**📚 A federated network to bookmark, share and discuss good web pages with your friends.**
17+
18+
It's getting harder and harder to find good web pages. When you do find good ones, it's worth hanging onto them. Linkblocks is your own small corner of the web, where you can keep your favorite pages, and share them with your friends to help them find good web pages too.
19+
20+
🔭 Linkblocks is in an exploratory phase where we're trying out different ways to make it work well. You can try it out, but big and small things might change with every update.
21+
22+
## Vision
23+
24+
- On linkblocks, you can organize, connect, browse and search your favorite web pages.
25+
- Share carefully curated or wildly chaotic collections of the stuff you really really like with other linkblocks users and the whole world wide web.
26+
- Follow users with a similar taste and get a feed of fresh good web pages every day. Browse others' collections to discover new web pages from topics you like.
27+
- Annotate, highlight and discuss web pages together with your friends.
28+
- Mark users as trusted whose standards for web pages match yours - and then search through all trusted bookmarks to find good pages on a specific topic. Add trusted users of your trusted users to your search range to cast a wider net.
29+
30+
