Foundation Protocol:面向智能体社会的协调层
阅读原文· arxiv.org自主智能体正从工具演变为社会基础设施的一部分,其扩展瓶颈已从模型能力转向协调问题。论文提出Foundation Protocol(FP),一种图优先的协调层,用于构建新兴的人机社会。FP旨在统一智能体、工具、资源、人类等异构实体,支持基于事件的多方协作与经济计量结算。该协议设计为包装并桥接现有协议,支持渐进式采用,在保持智能体可组合性的同时,确保问责制的不可妥协性。
Autonomous agents are moving from tools into a layer of social infrastructure: they browse, purchase, deploy software, manage systems, and increasingly interact with one another. As these systems scale, the bottleneck shifts away from raw model capability toward coordination. Agents need to form reliable relationships, organize multi-agent work, exchange value, support an AI economy, and stay safe and accountable under real-world oversight. This paper introduces the Foundation Protocol (FP), a graph-first coordination layer for an emerging human-AI society. FP unifies heterogeneous entities, including agents, tools, resources, humans, institutions, and organizations, and supports native multi-party organization and event-based collaboration. It also provides economic primitives for metering, receipts, and settlement, and treats policy, provenance, and audit as first-class concerns. FP is designed to wrap and bridge existing protocols rather than replace them, enabling incremental adoption while reducing integration and governance overhead. The aim is to keep autonomous agency composable while keeping accountability non-negotiable, so that coordination itself can become shared infrastructure for a human-AI society that is open, pluralistic, and governable.
