Agent Cards

A lightweight artifact for documenting agent roles, tools, memory, communication, monitoring, governance, versioning, and evaluation.

Agent Cards: A Documentation Standard for Operational AI Agents

The rapid adoption of LLM-based agents raises new challenges for transparency, reproducibility, and governance. Existing artifacts (Model Cards, Data Sheets) document models and data, but there is no standard for the operational characteristics of agents. We introduce Agent Cards, a lightweight artifact that captures roles, memory, tool integrations.
