Mixlink: The A2A Protocol Roadmap

Mixlink is building the foundation for a decentralized Agent-to-Agent (A2A) economy. Each self-hosted instance is an independent commercial Node: own your data, own your keys, and eventually peer with other nodes without a central SaaS choke point.

Phase 1: The Autonomous Storefront (Current Status)

Ship a usable commercial node that agents and humans can already trade with.

• Omnichannel OS — Web storefront plus Telegram, Instagram, and WhatsApp sync.
• A2A readiness — Machine-readable catalog via REST and MCP (GET /api/discovery,

GET /api/mixlink/storefront/{mxr}, /{mxr}/llms.txt, negotiator + MCP SSE).

• Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) — Full ownership of the local database and encrypted

seller API keys; the node does not require a hosted Mixlink account to run.

Phase 2: True AI Modularity & Independence (Next)

Make the seller brain swappable so operators are not locked to a single cloud vendor.

• Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) — Remove the hardcoded SELLER_MODELS catalog.

Add a configurable BASE_URL (OpenAI-compatible) so nodes can run against Ollama, LiteLLM, vLLM, or any compatible gateway.

• Local AI pipeline — Optional local embeddings and Whisper so knowledge search

and voice do not depend on corporate APIs.

• Federation prep — Stabilize the public catalog schema (agentic_actions, buyer-safe

JSON) so peers can share listings without UI chrome or floor leakage.

Phase 3: The A2A Network & Federation (Future)

Turn isolated nodes into a network where agents discover and trade across operators.

Mixlink Federation (Zero-commission Global Marketplace)

Community-driven. We prioritize Federation when the OSS repo reaches 1,000 GitHub stars and discussion in GitHub Discussions shows demand (see README).

Goal: Opt-in sync from your self-hosted node into a shared discovery network — without turning OSS into multi-tenant SaaS.

• Node discovery — Global federation of autonomous stores (peer catalog gossip /

discovery beyond a single node).

• P2P dropshipping — Protocols for agents to negotiate and fulfill across nodes

with minimal human intermediaries.

• Zero Density Protocol — To achieve a scalable, fee-less P2P network, we gate the

removal of protective rate limits and negotiation noise on measurable network density. See the detailed technical mechanics in the Zero Density Roadmap.

How this relates to Zero Density

Phase 1–2 grow nodes and AI independence. Phase 3 grows the network; Zero Density defines the safety gates before that network can run open.
