What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Adopt with guardrails

Why
Genuinely stable LF-governed v1.0 with real cloud-platform integration and the right security primitives (signed cards, OAuth/mTLS), but the headline adoption is logo-deep and the default card-trust model is exploitable, so it needs hard guardrails not blanket trust.
Next
Pilot A2A as the horizontal agent-coordination layer behind MCP, but MANDATE signed Agent Card verification end-to-end and short-lived scoped tokens before any cross-org task routing; gate behind Contract Spine + BIL deploy-safe.
