AICL — AI Content Licensing Layer

01 · Nkọwa

AICL is the licensing and transaction layer built on top of AICR. Where AICR declares what is allowed, AICL defines how permission is actually obtained: license tiers and prices, quote and payment endpoints, signed license tokens, usage and audit logs, and revocation. It is designed to interoperate with emerging machine-payment mechanisms such as HTTP 402 flows and pay-per-crawl schemes, with agentic payment kept inside human-approved budgets and audit trails. Content License ⇏ Agent Action Authority, and the reverse also holds — valid Agent Authority (AADP) ⇏ Content License: an AICL credential proves content-use permission, not a general Agent authorization token.
