Well, atproto *is* an open protocol so... I'm looking into an excension of the schema to allow accounts that are declaring that they're automated to optionally declare details about that automation, including an operator, a purpose, even an interaction model. Aids in both discovery and moderation!

Understanding Atproto - AT Protocol Docs - AT Protocol
Dive deeper into the concepts behind the AT Protocol.
ATProto in Practice #1: Identity
I’m starting a new blog post series that I’ve named “ATProto in Practice”. I want to go through some practical tasks that you’re likely to need when working with the protocol, using Ruby and my Ruby gems for the examples. These will (hopefully) be a bit shorter than my standard book-length blog posts here 🫠

Proposed ATproto Lexicon for detailed information about an automated account.
The Atproto Spaces Alpha is Live - AT Protocol
Atproto Spaces, formerly known as “the permissioned data protocol,” is a new extension to atproto that enables non-public data. The alpha is now officially open. Here’s how to develop with it and what to expect as we work towards the full release.

ATProto User Intents Demo
This is a demo tool which allows atproto accounts to configure a reuse declaration for their public data. You can read more about this atproo mechanism in the "User Intents for Data Reuse" proposal from March 2025. Any account in the atproto network (including Bluesky accounts) can use this tool via OAuth. The source code for this demo is linked above.
Capability Trees: A Protocol-Level Extension of Object Capabilities, Draft 3
This draft incorporates feedback from Brooklyn Zelenka (@expede.wtf), Daniel Holmgren (@dholms.at), and Zicklag (@zicklag.dev), and addresses questions raised in the ATProto Private Data Working Group. Draft 2 remains available for transparency.
