Release context

Read this update as one record inside a wider release trail

This dated post is useful on its own, but launch review depends on the surrounding records, same-day updates, and public evidence surfaces that travel with it.

What this record covers

One dated summary inside the public launch archive

UAIX expanded UAI-1 into a richer public exchange contract with a field registry, async task-status coverage, and stronger validator-backed protocol guidance.

Release-day packet

What the wider packet changed

This release day groups 5 public updates across 20 linked surfaces, with the heaviest impact on Governance and trust, Core record, Tools and conformance.

  • Governance and trust 6 linked surfaces | Changelog, Policy and Security
  • Core record 5 linked surfaces | UAI-1, Schemas
  • Tools and conformance 4 linked surfaces | Tools, Validator

UAIX has moved UAI-1 from a thinner message format into a more operational public exchange contract with a richer shared envelope, a published field registry, better async workflow coverage, and stronger validator-backed evidence.

What changed

  • UAI-1 now explains the current common envelope more directly, including conversation state, delivery semantics, trust metadata, provenance, integrity, and extensions.
  • Schemas, Registry, and Examples now publish six current profiles, including uai.task.status.v1 for async work and stronger typed error handling.
  • The public field registry now keeps keyed JSON, keyless transport order, and nested body order aligned across the current release.
  • Tools and the Validator now describe the route family and policy checks more clearly so the public record is easier to automate against.

How to use this update

  1. Start on UAI-1 for the new envelope and boundary description.
  2. Use Schemas, Registry, Examples, and the field registry together when evaluating compatibility.
  3. Use the Validator to turn that updated contract into reviewable conformance evidence.
  4. Carry any release-facing support claim through Implementations and the Changelog so the broader public record stays aligned.

Why this matters

UAIX becomes more credible when the standard explains real workflow state, trust hints, field order, and conformance evidence on the public record instead of leaving those details as future work or local convention. This update is a substantial step toward making UAI-1 a practical public coordination layer for AI-to-AI systems.
