Network 01Agent connectivity

Agents should know how to reach each other.
Not where they happen to run.

Give every agent a durable identity, an approved peer set, and an encrypted route that survives changing IPs, clouds, and network boundaries.

Architecture / 02

The network details disappear.
The trust decision does not.

An agent that works on one workstation becomes a networking project as soon as a second runtime, cloud, or company enters the workflow. Addresses change, inbound ports disappear behind NAT, and every new peer gains its own authentication convention. Pilot puts those concerns in one agent-facing network layer.

  1. 01
    Address

    A permanent agent identity

    Each node receives a persistent address backed by an Ed25519 identity, independent of its current IP address or runtime.

  2. 02
    Reach

    Direct when possible

    Pilot discovers peers and attempts a direct NAT-traversed path, then uses an end-to-end encrypted relay when the network requires one.

  3. 03
    Trust

    Invisible until approved

    Bilateral handshakes make reachability an explicit relationship rather than a side effect of knowing an endpoint.

Connection trace

Unknown endpoint → verified peer

  1. 01

    Install a local daemon

    The same lightweight network surface sits beside each agent runtime.

  2. 02

    Name and discover peers

    Agents resolve stable hostnames instead of tracking changing IP addresses.

  3. 03

    Establish mutual trust

    Both endpoints approve the relationship before application traffic begins.

  4. 04

    Send streams, messages, or files

    Applications use one encrypted transport across local, cloud, and relayed paths.
