Open Agent Governance Foundation™

# Standardise the category, in the open.

A category endures when its formats are open. The Open Agent Governance Foundation™ is the working group that standardises [Agentic Governance™](https://kyeprotocol.com/agent-governance-category/). It ships 3 things: shared schemas, evidence-pack formats, and conformance tests. Authority decisions stay portable across vendors. They stay provable to regulators. **This page is the charter and the call to join.**

The charter How to participate

Agentic Governance ™ with Authority Finality ™ .

## Charter

The Foundation exists to keep Agentic Governance™ open, interoperable, and regulator-legible. Its founding commitments:

- **Open schemas** — the evidence-pack, decision-map, and authority-resolution formats ship under an open licence. No vendor gate.
- **Conformance, not lock-in** — a conformance suite proves an implementation speaks the formats. Adopters keep the freedom to switch.
- **Replay from public keys** — a third party re-derives any sealed decision from public keys alone. Finality is verified independently.
- **Regulator participation** — supervisors take part as first-class members. The formats map to the frameworks they enforce.

## Call for participation

The Foundation is forming its founding cohort of implementers, auditors, and regulators. Participation is open and obligation-light at this stage: review the charter, signal intent, and help shape the first conformance milestone. KYE Protocol™ contributes its reference implementation as a starting point, not as the final word.
