Introduction

Conception

The ​​Agent Interaction Protocol (AIP)​​ is a distributed agent interaction protocol designed for multi-agent collaboration. AIP supports both agent-to-agent connectivity and agent-to-tool invocation. In addition to point-to-point connections, all agents and tools can be mounted as nodes on a shared gateway to form an interconnected network.

Characteristics

  • AIP supports both centralized proxy and peer-to-peer communication.
  • AIP uses ​​gRPC​​ as the underlying communication protocol, enabling faster serialization/deserialization through binary data transmission.
  • Agents communicate via ​​bidirectional asynchronous streams​​, supporting full-duplex real-time interaction.

Architecture

AIP adopts a layered design:

  • ​​Module Layer​​: Implements business logic distribution and coordination in the form of nodes or gateways. ​​- Session Layer​​: Manages the lifecycle of each communication session between nodes, using unique session IDs and asynchronous task coordination to ensure real-time message processing and resource safety.
  • ​​Transport Layer​​: Handles message dispatching and reception between the Session Layer and gRPC interfaces.

AIP supports two communication modes:

​​- Request-Response​​: Used for agent-to-tool interactions.

  • ​​Bidirectional Asynchronous Streaming​​: Used for real-time full-duplex agent-to-agent communication. The session initiator is responsible for sending session termination requests.
