Linux Foundation Welcomes the AGNTCY Project to Standardize Open Multi-Agent System Infrastructure and Break Down AI Agent Silos

SAN FRANCISCO, July 29, 2025 – The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization enabling mass innovation through open source, today welcomed the AGNTCY project, an open source infrastructure that enables discovery, identity, messaging, and observability among AI agents from different vendors and frameworks. Cisco, Dell Technologies, Google Cloud, Oracle, and Red Hat have joined as formative members of the AGNTCY project under Linux Foundation governance. 

Initially open sourced by Cisco in March 2025, with collaboration from LangChain and Galileo, AGNTCY has grown to include more than 65 supporting companies and provides the foundational infrastructure for the “Internet of Agents,” a new collaboration layer that lets multi-agent systems work together regardless of who built them or where they run. 

The proliferation of AI agents increases fragmentation and vendor silos, impeding the ability for agents to securely communicate, share context and collaborate across platforms. The AGNTCY project’s open, common infrastructure provides developers and organizations with secure agent identity, reliable messaging and end-to-end observability to enhance transparency, performance, efficiency and trust.
