The Web Needs a Context Layer Built on a Shared Protocol

The Web Needs a Context Layer Built on a Shared Protocol

Making context a shared protocol, rather than a platform feature, would let readers see competing perspectives anywhere on the web, argue Mallory Knodel, Evan Friedman, and Brad Friedman.

HTTP Semantics

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a stateless application-level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypertext information systems. This document describes the overall architecture of HTTP, establishes common terminology, and defines aspects of the protocol that are shared by all versions. In this definition are core protocol elements, extensibility mechanisms, and the "http" and "https" Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) schemes. This document updates RFC 3864 and obsoletes RFCs 2818, 7231, 7232, 7233, 7235, 7538, 7615, 7694, and portions of 7230.

Protocols and Power

If "context" is king, we need to ensure it remains fluid and accessible by third-party developers

Internet

The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that uses the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to communicate between networks and devices. It is a network of networks that comprises private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information services and resources, such as the interlinked hypertext documents and applications of the World Wide Web (WWW), electronic mail, discussion groups, internet telephony, streaming media and file sharing.

I built it for myself but now I can’t work without it, so it felt wrong not to share.OneContext is an Agent Self-Managed Context Layer across different sessions, devices, and coding agents (Codex / Claude Code).How it works:1.

What every web developer must know about mobile networks, protocols, and APIs provided by browser to deliver the best user experience.

Filling the remaining gap between WebSocket, WebRTC and WebTranspor

Existing web platform facilities for network communication include WebSocket and WebRTC. Each mandates a specific protocol, ensures TLS, and respects the Same Origin Policy. The proposed WebTransport is similar in these respects.

The 2026-07-28 Specification

The 2026-07-28 Model Context Protocol specification is out, bringing a stateless protocol core, Multi Round-Trip Requests, header-based routing, cacheable list results, authorization hardening, a formal extensions framework, and updated Tier 1 SDKs.
