Much of my work right now involves complex, long-running, multi-agentic teams of agents. I kept running into the same problem: “How do I keep these guys in line?” Rules weren’t cutting it, and we needed a scalable, agentic-native STANDARD I could count on. There wasn’t one. So I built one. Here are two open-source protocols that extend A2A, granting AI agents behavioral contracts and runtime integrity monitoring: - Agent Alignment Protocol (AAP): What an agent can do / has done. - Agent Integrity Protocol (AIP): What an agent is thinking about doing / is allowed to do. The problem:…

It's a Claude Code plugin that runs multiple AI models (GPT, Gemini, Grok, Kimi, Qwen, etc.) in parallel for code review and planning, then converges them on consensus through structured rounds. Each model reviews independently with no visibility into what the others found. Then they synthesize, surface conflicts, and run convergence (approve / changes needed, max 2 rounds). Technically it's markdown command files orchestrating Claude Code's team system — no custom runtime, just CLI piping.

Background: I've been working on agentic guardrails because agents act in expensive/terrible ways and something needs to be able to say "Maybe don't do that" to the agents, but guardrails are almost impossible to enforce with the current way things are built. Context: We keep running into so many problems/limitations today with MCP. It was created so that agents have context on how to act in the world, it wasn't designed to become THE standard rails for agentic behavior. We keep tacking things on to it trying to improve it, but it needs to die a SOAP death so REST can rise in it's…
