Envelope
Signed payload + policy bundle + trace context.
Negotiation
Capability discovery, cost budgets, and safety checks.
Handoff
Deterministic routing with replayable state snapshots.

Everything enterprise teams need to ship safely and compliantly
OpenEMCP borrows the clarity and trust of the most popular open-source platforms: clean docs, reliable APIs, and transparent roadmaps.
Protocol-first orchestration
Define how agents negotiate, collaborate, and recover with a versioned, extensible protocol.
Zero-trust routing
Encrypted envelopes, capability tokens, and fine-grained policy enforcement at every hop.
Enterprise-grade observability
Structured traces, deterministic replay, and compliance-ready audit logs by default.
Latency-aware scheduling
Keep critical agents responsive with adaptive routing and budgeted compute allocation.
Composable toolchains
Mix LLMs, tools, and workflows while keeping contracts stable across releases.
Open governance
Community-led specs, transparent RFCs, and public roadmaps that evolve together.
Adopters
Architecture
A protocol stack designed for enterprise AI
Agents exchange signed envelopes, negotiate capabilities, and synchronize state through a shared control plane. Every step is observable and replayable.
Contract layer
Standard message schema with signatures, data lineage, and policy bundles.
Planning layer
Dynamic capability discovery, cost budgeting, and guardrail enforcement.
Verification layer
Deterministic routing with state snapshots and multi-region failover.
Execution layer
Executes tasks with deterministic routing, state snapshots, and multi-region failover.
Context layer
Manages contextual information and state for agentic workflows.
Communication layer
Facilitates communication between agents and external systems.
Developer experience
Readable, auditable, and easy to integrate.

}Use cases
Built for regulated, high-trust environments
From finance to healthcare, OpenEMCP keeps agentic workflows compliant and observable.
Multi-agent finance ops
Coordinate risk, compliance, and analytics agents with deterministic handoffs.
Autonomous DevSecOps
Bridge security scanners, CI/CD agents, and incident responders with policy guardrails.
Customer experience copilots
Blend CRM, knowledge, and resolution agents while preserving data boundaries.
Why teams adopt OpenEMCP
Policy confidence
Ship autonomous agents with consistent compliance checks and reversible actions.
Operational clarity
Trace every decision with deterministic replay and timeline views.
Community velocity
Adopt vendor-neutral specs shaped by engineers and researchers worldwide.
