AICL — AI 内容授权连接层

01 · 定义

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.

02 · 目的

• 把权利声明转化为可运作的授权市场,而不是二元的开放/封闭网络。
• 标准化机器对机器流程:发现政策 → 请求报价 → 取得授权 → 使用 → 审计。
• 让 Agent 支付有界:预算、审批阈值、绑定请求的令牌、完整审计日志。
• 让内容方在不对 AI 关站的前提下获得补偿路径。

05 · 限制与边界

• 本站不运营支付网关;v0.1 的商业授权采用联系洽谈。
• AICL 是协议提案——并不保证 AI 公司必然付费。
• 支付合规、税务与金融监管不在本草案范围内。
• 令牌格式与端点语义属实验性质,可能调整。
• v0.1.1: an AICL license credential must not be interpreted as a general Agent authorization token, and a valid OAuth/MCP/AADP credential must not be interpreted as an automatic content-use license.
