AGNTCY: The Open Source Project for Building Multi-Agent Systems
summary
AGNTCY is an open source stack that stitches agents from any vendor into global multi-agent systems: identity and signed credentials, a directory like DNS for agents, capability catalogs, and multiple transports (HTTP/gRPC, NATS/Kafka pubsub) are implemented and tested. The project ships an SDK and two reference apps—a two-agent corto and a supply‑chain CoffeeAGNTCY largo scenario—uses Slim group protocol for low‑latency MLS group chats, traces calls with OpenTelemetry->ClickHouse->Grafana, and runs across clouds and on‑prem to prove scale to thousands.
