Agent Discovery
Register or scan agents, build a live capability map, and keep a central registry for routing and policy enforcement.
What ATC is
ATC is a control layer for agent ecosystems. It helps answer one key operational question: how do we govern and scale agent traffic safely at runtime?
Policy-aware Routing
Enforce policies before and after execution. ATC can apply request and response governance decisions and route to the right specialist agent.
Audit and Visibility
Keep persistent logs of forwarding, blocks, failures, and policy outcomes for security and operations.
Architecture
ATC is designed to sit on top of your existing stack. It can work with existing service mesh technologies, such as Istio or Consul, by running as a governance and routing layer for A2A agent traffic.
- Discover and register A2A agents
- Inspect and classify inbound requests
- Match intent to capability domain
- Apply redaction and policy checks
- Publish audit events for every critical action
- Run as a lightweight, composable mesh control layer
Current Status
ATC is in private build and pilot mode. Core workflows are focused on local-first operations with JSON file state, deterministic policy behavior, and clear visibility for operators.

Roadmap
- Now: private stack with governed A2A routing and logs
- Next: public docs and onboarding flow for joining ATC
- Next: open source release of core control plane
- Later: optional external policy engines and enterprise adapters
