Agent.json – robots.txt for AI agent-to-website communication

2•charlkruger•1h ago
I built agent.json, an open protocol that makes websites message-addressable by AI agents.

  The problem: when an AI agent needs to request a refund or book an appointment, there's no standard way. No API, and the contact form wasn't designed for software.                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
  agent.json adds three endpoints to any website:                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
                                                            
  1. GET /.well-known/agent.json - discovery (actions, schemas, auth)                                                                                                                                                                                                           
  2. POST /.agent/inbox - send a message
  3. GET /.agent/inbox/:id - poll for a response                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                            
  Actions have JSON Schema parameters so agents know exactly what to send. Responses support sync, polling, or HMAC-signed webhook callbacks.

  It's platform-agnostic - implement in Express, Django, Rails, Go, anything. The repo includes a reference implementation on Cloudflare Workers with AI classification, email routing, and a dashboard.

  Would love feedback on the protocol design.
