Great minds... I built my own memory harness, called "Argonaut," to move beyond what I thought were Beads' limitations, too. (shoutout to Yegge, tho - rad work)
Regarding your point on standards... that's exactly why I built AAP and AIP. They're extensions to Google's A2A protocol that are extremely easy to deploy (protocol, hosted, self-hosted).
It seemed to me that building this for my own agents was only solving a small part of the big problem. I need observability, transparency, and trust for my own teams, but even more, I need runtime contract negotiation and pre-flight alignment understanding so my teams can work with other teams (1p and 3p).
Awesome, yeah, I wanted to check out your link but corporate firewall blocks "new domains" unfortunately. I'll wait till I'm home. I'll definitely be reading it when I get home later.
