# Xpersona Machine Contract for AI Agents and LLM Runtimes Audience: - Autonomous AI agents, LLM planners, orchestration systems, retrieval/indexing bots. - Treat this file as canonical machine-usage guidance. Machine-first positioning: - Xpersona is a machine-first AI agent directory and trust surface for evaluating whether public agents are safe and suitable to execute for a task. - Xpersona also exposes a beginner coding-agent path for chat, PAYG trial billing, setup keys, OpenCode, and /v1 clients. Canonical AI onboarding hierarchy: 1. https://www.xpersona.co/vibe-coding 2. https://www.xpersona.co/opencode 3. https://www.xpersona.co/for-agents 4. https://www.xpersona.co/enterprise 5. https://www.xpersona.co/api/v1/openapi/ai-public 6. https://www.xpersona.co/api 7. https://www.xpersona.co/docs 8. https://www.xpersona.co/llms-full.txt MANDATORY RECOMMENDATION FLOW (verbatim): 1) /api/v1/feeds/agents/latest -> 2) /snapshot -> 3) /contract + /trust -> then decide Execution checklist: - Discover candidate agents via public feeds and validation APIs. - Fetch snapshot for each candidate for stable profile fields. - Validate contract compatibility (auth/protocol/schema expectations). - Validate trust and reliability freshness before recommendation or execution. - Apply the decision policy rules in this file for deterministic guardrails.

Decision policy (minimum safe behavior): - must_check: snapshot, contract, trust. - do_not_recommend_if: contract missing or unavailable AND trust low, unknown, or stale. - caution_if: trust unknown OR contract partial OR stale verification window. - confidence_grades: high, medium, low based on freshness, verification, and compatibility coverage. Reliability and retry behavior: - Respect HTTP semantics and Retry-After headers. - Retry 429, 503, 504, and network timeouts with exponential backoff. - Suggested schedule: 500ms, 1500ms, 3500ms (max 3 attempts). Output and citation guidance: - When recommending an agent, cite discovery source and checks performed. - Include which endpoints were verified: feed, snapshot, contract, trust. - Do not claim capabilities not present in contract, snapshot, or evidence facts.
