AFS

What does A2UI solve?

Render agent-provided interface descriptions through client-supported components.

AFS

What does the agent see behind a button?

A visual control can correspond to named structure, state and actions, rather than only a region of pixels.

AFS

What does AFS organize?

AFS gives a task a named, inspectable view of the resources it can work with.

AFS

What does AFS-UI add?

AFS-UI treats the interface as a projection over operational context that humans and agents can work with.

AFS

Are AG-UI and A2UI the same layer?

Agent–application event exchange differs from interface description.

AFS

What is AUP?

Agentic UI Protocol describes interface structure and its connections to state and actions.

AFS

How do src, bind and propBind differ?

Reading resources, writing input and updating properties are distinct connections.

AFS

What happens after a click?

Trace an interface event to an explicit operation target.

AFS

Which primitives does AUP define?

Eighteen core types provide an entry into the interface vocabulary.

AFS

What is in an AUP tree?

Read identities, types, properties and children through one task card.

AFS

How do AUP and Web Device divide responsibilities?

One describes interface contracts; the other organizes a Web site implementation.

AFS

Understand neighboring approaches

Put protocols, SDKs, hosts and design tools in their respective places.

AFS

What makes separate parts composable?

Compatible resource addresses and operations let parts cooperate without sharing every implementation detail.

AFS

Can every device render the same interface?

Capability declarations and degradation determine how a structure reaches its target.

AFS

How are a display and a session different?

A display presents and accepts interaction; a session groups the operational state associated with an interaction context.

AFS

Is Flutter GenUI SDK another protocol?

It provides implementation tools for generative interfaces in Flutter.

AFS

How should generative UI approaches be compared?

Compare responsibilities, addresses, state and interaction contracts.

AFS

What would looking behind the interface reveal?

Inspection should expose the actual structure of the active view and its relationship to state.

AFS

What Endures When Everything Evolves? — manuscript

Read the keynote argument, from the X Window inspiration to testable foundations for generative UI.

AFS

What Endures When Everything Evolves?

A 45-minute keynote draft about AFS-UI and stable foundations in generative interfaces.

AFS

What are MCP Apps?

Bring interactive HTML interfaces from MCP tools into supporting hosts.

AFS

How do MCP-UI and MCP Apps relate?

Separate the standard from implementation tooling and legacy compatibility.

AFS

Why do operation semantics matter?

Naming a resource is useful only when consumers can understand what operations on it mean.

AFS

Does every path address the same kind of thing?

Compare scope, resolution and available operations.

AFS

What does a path give an agent?

A path identifies a resource within a namespace, so operations can refer to it explicitly.

AFS

action: How does a button express an action?

action expresses a triggerable action or navigation entry.

AFS

afs-list: Can the same resources have different list views?

afs-list presents AFS resource collections as lists, grids and other arrangements.

AFS

calendar: How do you express scheduled events?

calendar organizes events into month, week, day or agenda views.

AFS

canvas: Are canvas strokes shared data?

canvas provides freeform drawing; the application connects saving and sharing.

AFS

chart: How do chart semantics differ from a chart library?

chart expresses data visualization; Web drawing has its own implementation.

AFS

chat: What does chat in the core vocabulary mean?

chat is a core type, but needs a supporting session target.

AFS

editor: Does an editor automatically save resources?

editor supports code or text editing; saving depends on explicit connections.

AFS

explorer: How do you browse AFS resources?

explorer describes a resource-browser subsystem; the runtime must support its expansion and presentation.

AFS

input: How do you receive user input?

input describes an input control; change represents value changes.
