TSMM Roadmap
This roadmap is directional. It is not a delivery schedule. TSMM evolves through additive, testable model surfaces that can be adopted independently and promoted based on evidence.
Current release line
v0.19.0 — Agent Discovery, Capability Negotiation, and Task Evidence Readiness is the current release line. It adds candidate governance surfaces for:
- discovery governance
- descriptor integrity and freshness
- authenticated extended descriptor disclosure
- capability and extension negotiation
- task state evidence lifecycle
- A2A-class binding refresh
- validation and documentation staleness hardening
Candidate near-term increments
- Descriptor signing and registry publication profile
- Define a stronger descriptor-integrity publication profile.
- Add examples for signed descriptor bundles and registry-mediated descriptor attestations.
- Human review and redress hooks
- Bind task lifecycle transitions to review, challenge, appeal, or rollback events.
- Extend decision receipts with contestability metadata where appropriate.
- Cross-protocol agent registry comparison
- Compare A2A-class discovery with OpenID Federation, TRQP registry discovery, and enterprise catalog patterns.
- Add portability notes for registry-mediated agent ecosystems.
- Evidence bundle packaging
- Define a lightweight packaging model for discovery, negotiation, runtime decision, and task lifecycle evidence.
- Align with downstream assurance and conformance suites where available.
Experimental surfaces
- Agent role taxonomy
- Attention governance
- ODRL policy expression alignment
- AIS-1 and bonded agent identity concepts
- HAVID high-assurance identifier binding
- Agent Governance Toolkit crosswalk
A TSMM surface should move toward stable status only when it has:
- documentation
- JSON/YAML schema where applicable
- at least one valid example
- at least one invalid conformance vector where applicable
- validation coverage
- binding or crosswalk notes when derived from an external ecosystem
- freshness metadata aligned to the current release
Out of scope
TSMM does not define an agent wire protocol, a wallet protocol, a registry API, a credential format, or an implementation runtime. It defines the governance semantics and model surfaces needed to compare, bind, and assure those systems.
