IETF Draft Analyzer v0.1.0 — track, categorize, and rate AI/agent drafts

Python CLI tool that fetches AI/agent-related Internet-Drafts from the IETF
Datatracker, rates them using Claude, generates embeddings via Ollama for
similarity/clustering, and produces markdown reports.

Features:
- Fetch drafts by keyword from Datatracker API with full text download
- Batch analysis with Claude (token-optimized, responses cached in SQLite)
- Embedding-based similarity search and overlap cluster detection
- Reports: overview, landscape by category, overlap clusters, weekly digest
- SQLite with FTS5 for full-text search across 260 tracked drafts

Initial analysis of 260 drafts reveals OAuth agent auth (13 drafts) and
agent gateway/collaboration (10 drafts) as the most crowded clusters,
while AI safety/alignment is underserved with the highest quality scores.

# The agent:// Protocol -- A URI-Based Framework for Interoperable Agents
**draft-narvaneni-agent-uri** rev 02
- **Date:** 2025-10-16
- **Pages:** 29
- **Group:** individual
- **Datatracker:** https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-narvaneni-agent-uri/
- **Text:** https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-narvaneni-agent-uri-02.txt
## Abstract
This document defines the agent:// protocol, a URI template-based
framework as described in RFC 6570 for addressing, invoking, and
interoperating with autonomous and semi-autonomous software agents.
It introduces a layered architecture that supports minimal
implementations (addressing and transport) and extensible features
(capability discovery, contracts, orchestration). The protocol aims
to foster interoperability among agents across ecosystems, platforms,
and modalities, enabling composable and collaborative intelligent
systems.

## Major Competing Clusters
### 1. OAuth for AI Agents (13 drafts) — MOST CROWDED
All trying to solve: how do AI agents authenticate and get authorized via OAuth?
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-aap-oauth-profile | OAuth 2.0 profile for autonomous agents |
| draft-aylward-daap-v2 | Distributed accountability protocol |
| draft-barney-caam | Contextual agent authorization mesh |
| draft-chen-ai-agent-auth-new-requirements | New auth requirements analysis |
| draft-chen-oauth-rar-agent-extensions | RAR extensions for agent policy |
| draft-goswami-agentic-jwt | Agentic JWT for autonomous systems |
| draft-jia-oauth-scope-aggregation | Scope aggregation for multi-step workflows |
| draft-liu-agent-operation-authorization | Verifiable delegation via JWT |
| draft-liu-oauth-a2a-profile | A2A profile for transaction tokens |
| draft-oauth-ai-agents-on-behalf-of-user | On-behalf-of-user extension |
| draft-song-oauth-ai-agent-authorization | Target-based authorization |
| draft-song-oauth-ai-agent-collaborate-authz | Multi-agent collaboration authz |
| draft-yao-agent-auth-considerations | Auth considerations analysis |
**Gap:** Most focus on single-agent auth. Few address chained delegation across multiple agents or revocation in real-time agent-to-agent workflows.
### 2. Agent Gateway / Multi-Agent Collaboration (10 drafts)
All trying to solve: how do agents from different platforms/ecosystems collaborate?
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-agent-gw | Semantic routing gateway |
| draft-campbell-agentic-http | HTTP best practices |
| draft-cui-dmsc-agent-cdi | Cross-domain interop framework |
| draft-fu-nmop-agent-communication-framework | Network AIOps comm framework |
| draft-han-rtgwg-agent-gateway-intercomm-framework | Gateway intercomm |
| draft-li-dmsc-inf-architecture | DMSC infrastructure architecture |
| draft-li-dmsc-macp | Multi-agent collaboration protocol suite |
| draft-liu-dmsc-acps-arc | Agent collaboration protocols arch |
| draft-yang-dmsc-ioa-task-protocol | IoA task protocol |
| draft-yang-ioa-protocol | IoA protocol |
**Gap:** No draft addresses dynamic trust establishment between gateways, or how to handle conflicting semantic schemas across ecosystems.
### 3. Agent Discovery (6 drafts)
All trying to solve: how do you find and invoke an AI agent?
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-cui-ai-agent-discovery-invocation | Discovery + invocation protocol |
| draft-gaikwad-woa | Web of Agents |
| draft-mozley-aidiscovery | AI Discovery problem statement |
| draft-mozleywilliams-dnsop-bandaid | DNS-based agent discovery |
| draft-narajala-ans | Agent Name Service (DNS-based) |
| draft-pioli-agent-discovery | Agent Registration & Discovery Protocol |
**Gap:** None adequately addresses discovery across trust boundaries or privacy-preserving discovery (finding agents without revealing your intent).
### 4. Intent-Based Agent Routing (5 drafts)
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-ainp-protocol | AI-native semantic protocol |
| draft-li-semantic-routing-architecture | Semantic routing architecture |
| draft-sun-zhang-iaip | Intent-based agent interconnection |
| draft-sz-dmsc-iaip | Same, different WG |
| draft-zeng-opsawg-llm-netconf-gap | LLM-driven netconf gap analysis |
**Gap:** No draft defines how to verify that an agent's stated intent matches its actual behavior.
### 5. 6G Agent Requirements (6 drafts)
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-du-ai-agent-communication-6g-aspect | 6G agent comm requirements |
| draft-hw-ai-agent-6g | Agent protocol requirements for 6G |
| draft-liu-dmsc-gw-requirements | Gateway requirements |
| draft-mao-rtgwg-apn-framework-for-ioa | APN framework for IoA |
| draft-rosenberg-aiproto-framework | General agent protocol framework |
| draft-tong-network-agent-use-cases-in-6g | 6G use cases |
**Gap:** Heavy on requirements, light on actual protocol mechanisms. Most are wish lists rather than specifications.
### 6. Agent Identity via SCIM/Registry (6 drafts)
| Draft | Approach |
|-------|----------|
| draft-abbey-scim-agent-extension | SCIM extension for agents |
| draft-liang-agentdns | Root domain naming for agents |
| draft-scim-agent-extension | Same as abbey (co-submitted) |
| draft-wahl-scim-agent-schema | SCIM agentic identity schema |
| draft-zheng-agent-identity-management | Agent identity in IoA |
| draft-zheng-dispatch-agent-identity-management | Same, different WG |
**Gap:** No draft addresses identity lifecycle — what happens when an agent is retired, compromised, or forked?
---
## Underserved Areas (potential gaps to fill)
Based on what's NOT well covered:
1. **Agent accountability & audit trails** — Only draft-aylward-daap-v2 and draft-birkholz-verifiable-agent-conversations tackle this seriously
2. **Token/cost efficiency in agent protocols** — Only draft-chang-agent-token-efficient addresses token bloat
3. **Agent safety constraints at the protocol level** — AI safety/alignment has highest avg score (3.8) but fewest drafts (36)
4. **Cross-trust-boundary agent delegation** — Chained auth across org boundaries barely addressed
5. **Privacy-preserving agent discovery** — No draft covers this
6. **Agent behavior verification** — Intent vs. actual behavior mismatch detection
7. **Agent identity lifecycle** — Retirement, revocation, compromise recovery
