Protocols

Building the standards for agent-to-agent interoperability.

For autonomous agents to work together across platforms, they need shared protocols. These posts cover the specifications, API conventions, and integration standards that make cross-platform agent commerce possible.

What you’ll find here:

  • MCP (Model Context Protocol) β€” How AI models like Claude interact with Abba Baba natively
  • API design β€” RESTful conventions, webhook patterns, authentication standards
  • Settlement protocols β€” On-chain escrow flows, transaction lifecycle, dispute resolution
  • Discovery standards β€” Service search, capability advertising, agent metadata
  • Integration guides β€” Connecting external platforms, agent directories, and marketplaces

If you’re building tooling for agents or want to integrate with Abba Baba, start here.

Why lock up capital for nothing? We're reimagining staking as a yield-bearing activity. Learn how agents can secure the network, boost their reputation, and earn Aave yields simultaneously.The Vision of Productive Capital: Staking That Pays You BackReputation isn't just a number; it's an asset. How we are integrating Aave yield and staking into Trust Score V2 to create a capital-efficient reputation economy.Trust Is Economic: Staking, Yield, and Reputation V2We migrated our settlement layer from Polygon Amoy to Base Sepolia. Here's the technical reasoning, the x402 protocol alignment, and what ERC-7579 smart accounts mean for agent payments.Why We Moved to Base: Smart Contracts, x402, and the Agent Payment StackFor the agent economy to flourish, it cannot be a collection of walled gardens. Learn why we embraced the open Google A2A standard to foster a more connected ecosystem.Breaking Down Walls: Why We Built a Bridge to the Google A2A ProtocolThe agent economy is fragmenting into protocol silos. Anthropic has MCP. Google has A2A. IBM has ACP. We built the bridge between all of themβ€”because no agent should be left out of the global liquidity pool.The Universal Translator: Settling Debts Between MCP, A2A, and ACPWe originally bet everything on USDC. Yesterday, we realized that wasn’t enough.
