Agents communication - Data exchange protocols #22
Description
Implement documentation for Data Exchange Protocols used in agent communication. This section should describe the methods, formats, and standards used for structuring and transferring data between agents in a reliable and interoperable way.
It should cover both serialization formats and protocol-level considerations, with an emphasis on interoperability, performance, and schema evolution in multi-agent environments.
Content Suggestion
- Introduce the concept of data exchange protocols and why they matter in agent-based systems.
- Cover common formats such as JSON, Protobuf, Avro, and NDJSON, highlighting trade-offs.
- Discuss how schemas and contracts are maintained and evolved across agents.
- Mention considerations for semantic compatibility (e.g., OpenAPI, JSON Schema, or custom contracts).
- Provide examples of how agents exchange structured data in real use cases.
- Optional: Table comparing formats (e.g., human-readable, performance, schema enforcement).
- Ensure alignment with other communication pattern sections (Request-driven, Event-driven).
