Vlad Luzin, co-founder and CTO of BAND, with Alexy Khrabrov on letting agents talk to each other. Connecting agents is a distributed system of microservices and most of the work is plumbing, so BAND supplies the primitives: a registry in which agents discover each other and work as a group but cannot reach outside it without consent, an identity for each agent, and token and credential propagation so one person's agent acts in that person's scope. The registry is a deterministic data model rather than a compile-time decision, and it belongs to a human -- every agent, coding assistants included, has an identity and an owner, and the owner decides who joins.
