## 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.
