Use it
Start with runnable demos, reference implementations, schemas, and conformance tests. Move from evaluation to a production pilot without waiting for a proprietary platform.
Community
The people and organisations behind AgenTrust
Partner and sponsor relationships linked to public evidence, how the projects are governed, and how to contribute.
From open technology to durable infrastructure
An ecosystem built around adoption
Improve it
Bring implementation feedback, integrations, threat models, deployment evidence, and research. Public repositories and issue trackers make the contribution path visible.
Sustain it
Grow maintainers, review contributions, document adoption patterns, and share stewardship across organizations so critical governance infrastructure outlives any one team.
Adoption pathway: explore a ten-minute demo → test against the open suites → pilot one trust boundary → contribute results and integrations → help govern and maintain the shared infrastructure.
Verified ecosystem evidence
Relationships the public record supports
Every organization named here has a traceable relationship through a public announcement, open-source repository, or explicit AgenTrust partner statement. The label on each card states that relationship precisely; sponsorship, partnership, contribution, and adoption are distinct relationships, and none implies blanket endorsement of the full stack.
Neutral host
TRACE Specification is an LF Project
TRACE is hosted at the Linux Foundation as its own series. Its specification, IP, trademark, and conformance mark sit with the series under the Community Specification License and LF Projects policies, so no single vendor decides what conformance means. It has also been proposed to the Agentic AI Foundation at the Sandbox stage.

Ecosystem Training & Adoption Partner
PRONATIVE AI works with AgenTrust to bring verifiable agent governance into enterprise engineering education and adoption. The partnership includes joint educational programming and the planned integration of cMCP, cA2A, and TRACE into PRONATIVE AI's AI-Native Engineering Foundry curriculum. PRONATIVE AI is also adopting the Microsoft Agent Governance Toolkit within its delivery environment and will publish implementation guidance as that work becomes publicly available.

Open work, visible decisions, more maintainers
AgenTrust develops in public through open repositories, reviewable proposals, implementation evidence, and conformance testing. The goal is not simply to publish specifications: it is to create a contributor community capable of operating, improving, and stewarding the technology.
Technical stewardship
Imran Siddique
AgenTrust
Architecture, implementation, conformance, and maintainer development.
Governance & sustainability
XRSI
Named organizational partner for community governance, ecosystem adoption, and long-term sustainability. Individual committee appointments will be published only after confirmation.
Committee formation
Community seats
Adopter, maintainer, research, and public-interest representation will be added as the steering model is formalized.
Compliance adoption roadmap
From runtime evidence to compliance playbooks
The fellowship will turn AgenTrust implementation patterns into practical, public playbooks. Each playbook will map governance controls and TRACE evidence to an authoritative framework without claiming certification or legal compliance.

AgenTrust Fellowship 2026
The AgenTrust Fellowship supports emerging maintainers of open infrastructure for verifiable AI systems. Fellows contribute code, tests, integrations, documentation, and adoption guidance across AgenTrust projects, grounded in real issues and verifiable work.
Applications closed early on 26 August 2026 due to exceptional volume. More than 150 applications are under review. The fellowship will not start in September as originally planned. The schedule and decision timeline are being reviewed and there is no firm notification date yet. Applicants do not need to send anything further; the submitted proposal is what is assessed. A revised timetable will be published here once it is confirmed, and applicants will be contacted directly.

Architecting at Scale
AgenTrust founder Imran Siddique has turned the lessons behind production cloud and AI systems into a practical book. It connects the architecture of distributed systems with the harder problem now in front of us: building AI-native systems that remain observable, governable, and correct when they meet production.
