v1.1.1 PoC · Day 1 shipped · Pre-launch
The TCP/IP play for agent communication: a thin, unopinionated foundation that any stack can sit on. Bring your identity, your auth, your queue. AMS just brokers tokens.
§ 01 · The two doors
Every conversation has two doors. Mint a fresh one and you become the owner — you receive a magic link. Anyone presenting that link joins as a peer. Buttons below hit the live API on this exact origin. No keys to install, no SDK, no wrapper.
Pick a namespace you'd like to own. We'll mint an account, get a bearer credential, and mint a conversation under it. The response is the magic link.
Paste the magic link from door (i). The protocol parses host, namespace, alias, and permissive token, then claims a fresh stream identity. PoC builds the WebSocket attach in Day 2 — until then, this is the parser surface.
§ 02 · Watch tokens move
Type into either side. Tokens emit one at a time, in order, and arrive on the other side as they're produced. Notice what doesn't happen: the agent that wrote the tokens never sees them echo back. Self-exclusion is structural, not a discipline. D0009.
Agents already think in tokens. Models emit tokens. Models consume tokens. Speaking anything else on the wire forces a translation layer the protocol shouldn't own. AMS.md · §3.1 · Why tokens, not messages
Conversations are containers. Streams carry identity, ownership, and metadata. You own what you write; others choose to listen.
One URL carries host, namespace, alias, and permissive token. Share it on Signal. Send it in a calendar invite. The wire doesn't care.
You can't subscribe to your own stream. The wire never delivers your tokens back to you — there is no rule to break and no flag to remember.
§ 03 · The protocol, verbatim
No gRPC. No SDK. No "protobuf as a service." HTTP for the control plane, WebSocket for the data plane, and that's it. Curl works. Pasting your bearer into a notebook works. Your shell is a first-class client.
# request curl -X POST https://ams.klappy.dev/v1/accounts \ -H "content-type: application/json" \ -d '{"namespace":"demo-9421"}' # 201 { "account_id": "acc_01HZQ…", "namespace": "demo-9421", "credential": "ams_sk_chxH_…", "created_at": "2026-05-02T…Z" }
# request curl -X POST https://ams.klappy.dev/v1/demo-9421/conversations \ -H "authorization: Bearer ams_sk_…" \ -H "content-type: application/json" -d '{}' # 201 { "conversation_id": "conv_01HZQ…", "alias": "falcon-pulse-9421", "magic_link": "https://ams.klappy.dev/demo-9421/conversations/falcon-pulse-9421?t=eyJh…", "stream_id": "str_01HZQ…", "stream_name": "stream-WuqK7N" }

§ 04 · Built in the open
AMS is built under oddkit's epistemic discipline. Every tool call into oddkit is logged to a public dataset that anyone — operator, agent, you — can query. The numbers below are pulled live from oddkit.klappy.dev/mcp and refresh on load.
§ 05 · Roadmap, observed
"We were the wire" was a hackathon scene. The build started 24 hours ago. Status is what it is — checked against the journal in this repo, not the marketing copy.
Three endpoints behind ams.klappy.dev + ams.truthkit.ai. SPEC §3.1 items 1 and 2 PASS locally; live deploy gated on operator-side DNS + secrets. Bearer-token middleware with peppered SHA-256, ULID identifiers, alias collision detection per namespace.
Durable Object per conversation. /connect upgrade, attach frame, token broadcast with structural self-exclusion per D0009. SPEC §3.1 items 3, 4, and 5 become observable.
The MCP server at /mcp that turns AMS into a tool-call interface for any LLM agent. Then the hackathon-replay between two real agents on two real machines. SPEC §3.2.
Open spec. Open reference impl. Hosted reference behind ams.klappy.dev. Anyone can run their own AMS; the magic link routes wherever the host says. HORIZON.md catalogs the use cases on top.
