Announcing the Agentic Resource Discovery specification
Blog post from Google Cloud
Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD) is an open specification designed to streamline the discovery, verification, and connection of AI capabilities across the web, addressing the current fragmentation and lack of interoperability in agentic systems. By standardizing the way capabilities are published and indexed through catalogs and registries, ARD facilitates secure and efficient communication between agents across different organizations and platforms. This specification enables agents to dynamically find and verify resources by relying on cryptographic metadata for trust, allowing for direct and secure connections using native protocols. Google's Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform supports ARD through its Agent Registry, providing enterprises with tools for governance and compliance while fostering an open and decentralized agent ecosystem. ARD is available for use, with opportunities for the community to contribute to its ongoing development.
