OAuth Client ID Metadata Document

This specification defines a mechanism through which an OAuth client can identify itself to authorization servers, without prior dynamic client registration or other existing registration. This is through the usage of a URL as a client_id in an OAuth flow, where the URL refers to a document containing the necessary client metadata, enabling the authorization server to fetch the metadata about the client as needed.

Actually, having one Identity for yourself is a Breaching Experiment

This should really be a comment to Henry’s post, but I have the keys to this car, so I’m going to drive it, too. We have Zuckerberg’s remark:

Google’s nightmare “Web Integrity API” wants a DRM gatekeeper for the web

It's just a "proposal," but it's also being prototyped inside Chrome right now.

DNS-Anchored Durable Identity for AI Agents (DNSid)

Autonomous software agents are being deployed across enterprise, cloud, and cross-organizational boundaries. These agents negotiate, transact, delegate, and produce work products that persist beyond their own ephemeral runtime. Current standards and initiatives for agent identity collectively address runtime authentication, authorization, lifecycle management, and tool interaction, but a gap remains: a durable, governance-backed identifier that lets a relying party determine and verify the accountable entity behind an agent it encounters, including agents that have since been retired or whose keys have rotated, and attribute past and present work products to that entity. Lifecycle-history verification is governed by the applicable log method and deployment scope. DNSid addresses the accountable layer of identity: the durable ownership anchor that existing agent identity standards do not provide. This document specifies DNSid, a minimal identity primitive that assigns each agent a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), binds it to an accountable entity identified by a DNS domain under that entity's control, and publishes a structured set of pointers in DNS TXT records to the agent's cryptographic keys, lifecycle log, and operational status. DNSid uses accountable-entity-controlled signatures for record integrity and an abstract append-only lifecycle log for history. It is designed to sit beneath existing identity, authentication, authorization, and agent interaction standards without competing with them. DNSid introduces no new DNS resource record types, opcodes, or response codes, and requires no changes to DNS resolvers, authoritative servers, or the DNS protocol. It applies to any agent that can be assigned an FQDN whose accountable entity can publish verification material; public discoverability of the agent is not required.
