agent-identity-bridge 2.16.0

Portable identity for AI agents across MCP, A2A, ANP, and AG-UI protocols

Agent Identity Bridge (AIB)

One identity. Every protocol. Full audit trail.

AIB is an open-source protocol that gives AI agents a single portable identity across MCP (Anthropic), A2A (Google), ANP, and AG-UI — with W3C DID v1.1, Verifiable Credentials, and EU AI Act compliance built in.

The problem

Each AI protocol invented its own identity system. An agent operating across MCP + A2A + AG-UI has three separate identities with zero link between them. Cross-protocol auditing is impossible, credential management is painful, and EU AI Act compliance is a nightmare.

Quick start

pip install agent-identity-bridge
python -c "from aib import PassportService; print('AIB ready')"

Run the interactive demo (15 seconds, zero config)

curl -sO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tntech-consulting/agent-identity-bridge/main/examples/quickstart.py
python quickstart.py

AIB Cloud (managed SaaS)

from aib.cloud import AIBCloud

client = AIBCloud("aib_sk_live_...")

passport = client.create_passport("my-bot", protocols=["mcp", "a2a", "ag_ui"])
mcp_card = client.translate(a2a_card, "a2a_agent_card", "mcp_server_card")
client.create_policy("deliverable_gate", {"required_capabilities": ["tests_passed"]})
client.create_webhook("https://your-app.com/hooks", events=["passport.created"])

Local protocol (self-hosted)

from aib.passport import PassportService, McpBinding, A2aBinding

svc = PassportService(secret_key="your-secret")
passport, token = svc.create_passport(
    org_slug="mycompany", agent_slug="booking-agent",
    capabilities=["booking", "scheduling"],
    bindings={"mcp": McpBinding(auth_method="oauth2"), "a2a": A2aBinding(auth_method="bearer")},
)

How AIB relates to existing solutions

AIB is a standard, not a product. It bridges protocols, it doesn't compete with IAM vendors.

• MCP connects agents to tools. AIB connects agents to all protocols.
• A2A coordinates agents. AIB gives each agent an identity usable everywhere.
• Okta/Entra authenticates humans. AIB bridges their tokens to agent passports via OIDC federation.
• SailPoint discovers and governs agents. AIB gives them portable identities across protocols.

No European competitor exists for cross-protocol agent identity + DID + VCs + EU AI Act compliance. See aib-tech.fr/why for full positioning.
