# Made for Agent

> Made for Agent publishes open, machine-readable protocols that let AI agents, models and tools discover and talk to each other. It starts with LMSP, the Local Model Service Protocol.

## Specification: LMSP 1.0 (Draft)

- [Local Model Service Protocol (LMSP)](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp.md): LMSP is an open protocol for discovering and calling language models that run on your own device. It defines service discovery, a model catalog, streaming, persistent tasks and OpenAI compatibility.
- [Overview](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0.md): LMSP 1.0 draft overview. What the Local Model Service Protocol is, the designs it builds on, its layered architecture, how to read the specification, and the terms used throughout.
- [Transport and deployment](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/transport.md): Default listen addresses, transport, streaming format and URL layout of an LMSP service, and how it runs as an operating-system service separate from the model processes.
- [Service discovery](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/discovery.md): How LMSP clients find a local service through manual configuration, loopback probing and optional mDNS/DNS-SD, and how to read the well-known service description document.
- [Endpoints](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/endpoints.md): The complete table of LMSP 1.0 endpoints with method, path, requirement level and purpose, plus the conventions for paths, authentication and optional endpoints.
- [Model catalog](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/models.md): How an LMSP service lists its local models, the model object and its capability flags, the model lifecycle states, stable model ids and catalog revisions.
- [Responses and streaming](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/responses.md): The LMSP core conversation interface, with Responses-style requests and output items, synchronous and streaming generation, server-sent event types, event ids, reconnection and tool calls.
- [Asynchronous tasks](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/tasks.md): How LMSP runs long generations as persisted tasks, with task creation, the task state machine, idempotent cancellation, event streams and restart policies for unfinished tasks.
- [OpenAI and Ollama compatibility](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/compatibility.md): How an LMSP service stays compatible with existing OpenAI and Ollama clients through a thin data-conversion layer over one execution core, and where that compatibility ends.
- [Common rules](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/common-rules.md): Rules shared by every LMSP endpoint, covering version headers and extensions, idempotency keys, the problem+json error format with its error codes, and the health check.
- [Local security](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/security.md): Security requirements for LMSP services, with loopback binding, pairing and bearer tokens, scopes, Origin and Host checks against malicious web pages, LAN mode and logging rules.
- [Persistence](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/persistence.md): How an LMSP service stores its state, with an embedded SQLite database, the tables to keep, the transactional rules for tasks and events, retention and recovery at startup.
- [Minimum viable scope](https://madeforagent.com/lmsp/1.0/mvp.md): A suggested scope for a first LMSP implementation, with the ten pieces that form a usable closed loop and the parts of the specification that can wait for later releases.
