Hi Brian,
Thanks for sharing this. It is interesting to see an example of what GRASP
could provide for AI-ASAs and AI4AN.

This also seems related to the agent discovery work in DAWN. I
believe that DAWN considers the general discovery of agents and other entities,
potentially across administrative domains, while this idea focuses on
discovering AI-ASAs within an ANI/ACP domain.
I also wonder how this relates to A2A discovery. An A2A Agent
Card normally assumes that the client already knows a domain name, URL, or
registry. GRASP seems able to provide an earlier bootstrap step: finding an ASA
by objective without prior knowledge of its address or dependence on DNS. The
agents could then use A2A, MCP, HTTPS, QUIC, or another protocol for their
subsequent communication.
Regards,
Mengyao

This is a bit premature, but following several recent discussions I've started
work on a draft with the above title. It's too late to discuss in the next WG
meeting (and I will be fast asleep at that time). However, if you are
interested, there's a pre-release version:

Comments and suggestions very welcome!
