contents Enterprise AI deployment faces critical "Know Your Agent" (KYA) challenges where organizations must verify third-party agent capabilities and establish trust without standardized metadata or verification infrastructure. Current approaches rely on self-declared capabilities and custom integration processes that create trust gaps and coordination friction limiting confident enterprise adoption. This paper presents AgentFacts, a universal metadata standard that enables systematic agent verification through cryptographically-signed capability declarations, multi-authority validation, and dynamic permission management. The specification introduces domain-specialized verification where different trusted authorities validate specific metadata aspects based on their expertise, eliminating single points of trust failure while enabling graduated confidence assessment. AgentFacts transforms agent procurement from custom integration projects into standardized workforce management, providing the transparency and governance infrastructure necessary for enterprise AI coordination at scale.
