12-Factor Agents is a conceptual engineering guide that defines a set of principles for building reliable, scalable, and maintainable LLM-powered applications. Inspired by the original Twelve-Factor App methodology, the project reframes best practices specifically for agentic systems and AI software. It outlines patterns such as treating prompts as first-class assets, owning the context window, and converting natural language into structured tool calls.

...It is designed to standardize how AI agents and services securely authenticate, communicate, and manage identity within modern software systems. Built alongside the broader Better Auth framework, it integrates with a comprehensive authentication system that supports features like OAuth, multi-factor authentication, and session management. The protocol focuses on enabling secure interactions in environments where automated agents act on behalf of users or systems, requiring robust identity verification and permission handling. It aligns with modern authentication standards and is intended to work seamlessly with APIs, distributed systems, and AI-driven workflows.
