Feed Type — agent-economy.llmfeed.json
Feed Type: `agent-economy.llmfeed.json`
🚀 Purpose
This feed type revolutionizes how AI agents discover, negotiate, and transact value in an autonomous economy. It enables dynamic pricing, agent-to-agent billing, performance-based monetization, and the world's first intelligent agent marketplace.
It solves the future problem: "How do autonomous agents fairly price and coordinate complex multi-agent workflows?"
📍 Location
Recommended path:
.well-known/agent-economy.llmfeed.json
Advanced services may also serve this dynamically with authentication for different agent tiers.

🔐 Why Signatures Are CRITICAL for Agent Economy
**Economic Integrity**
"trust": {
"signed_blocks": ["agent_tiers", "dynamic_pricing", "multi_agent_workflows"],
"economic_model_verification": "audited_by_independent_economists",
"fairness_certification": "algorithmic_bias_tested",
"regulatory_oversight": "financial_services_compliant"
}
Critical Protection Against:
- 🚫 Price manipulation between agents
- 🚫 Fraudulent performance claims
- 🚫 Collusion to inflate costs
- 🚫 Unauthorized modifications to pricing algorithms
- 🚫 Discriminatory pricing based on protected characteristics
**Multi-Agent Workflow Integrity**
"certification": {
"issuer": "https://llmca.org",
"cert_id": "llmca-agent-economy-2025-001",
"economic_audit": "pricing_fairness_verified",
"performance_guarantees": "sla_backed_by_insurance",
"dispute_resolution": "cryptographically_auditable"
}
Ensures:
- ✅ Verifiable revenue sharing across agent networks
- ✅ Tamper-proof performance metrics
- ✅ Auditable transaction history
- ✅ Regulatory compliance for financial transactions
