AICL — Inqanaba lokuNikwa kweLayisensi yoMxholo we-AI
Ilayisensi yoMxholo we-AI / Inqanaba lokuNikwa kweLayisensi yoMxholo we-AI
Iguqula amalungelo abhengeziweyo abe lilayisensi enokusetyenziswa: ukucacisa ixabiso, ukuhlawula, ukuqinisekisa, uphononongo, ukurhoxisa.
01 · Inkcazo
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 · Injongo
- Guqula izibhengezo zamalungelo zibe yimarike yelayisensi esebenzayo endaweni yewebhu enomgca omnye ovulekileyo/ovaliweyo.
- Misela umgangatho wenkqubo ephakathi kwemitshi: ukufumana umgaqo → ukucela ixabiso → ilayisensi → ukusetyenziswa → uphononongo.
- Gcina iintlawulo zee-arhente zinemida: iibhajethi, imida yokuvunywa, iitokheni ezibotshelelwe kwisicelo, iirekhodi zohlolo-mfihlo ezipheleleyo.
- Nika ababoneleli bomxholo indlela eya embuyekezweni ngaphandle kokuvala iisayithi zabo kwi-AI.
03 · Ubungakanani
Ikhathalogu yelayisensi — amanqanaba eziqoqo zamalungelo kunye namaxabiso neemeko
Iindawo zokufikelela zokucacisa ixabiso / ukuhlawula / ukuqinisekisa / ukurhoxisa
Iitokheni zelayisensi ezisayinwe ezibotshelelwe kumceli, ubungakanani, kunye nexesha
Iirekhodi zokusetyenziswa kunye nemikhondo yohlolo-mfihlo
Ukusebenzisana kwe-HTTP 402 'Kufuneka Intlawulo'
Imigaqo yokhuseleko: i-AI ayiphathi idatha yekhadi engagqityiwe, imida yokuvunywa ngabantu
principal / actor / authority_reference / aadp_authority_id — optional fields (v0.1.1) linking a license to the AADP authority context an Agent acted under, without making the license itself an authorization token

} 05 · Imida
- Le sayithi ayilawuli sango lentlawulo; iilayisensi zorhwebo zisekelwe kunxibelelwano kwi-v0.1.
- I-AICL sisiphakamiso seprotokholi — ayiqinisekisi ukuba iinkampani ze-AI ziya kuhlawula.
- Ukuthotyelwa kwentlawulo, irhafu, kunye nemithetho yezemali kungaphandle kobungakanani boluyilo.
- Iifomathi zetokheni kunye neentsingiselo zeendawo zokufikelela ziyeyovavanyo kwaye zinokutshintsha.
- 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.
Inqaku lokuthiywa
In earlier EveMissLab research, the acronym AICL also names the “AI Ingestion & Capability Layer” — an architectural layer for how AI systems read and invoke websites (manifest, corpus, capability, runtime control, governance sublayers). As of v0.2 of that paper (2026-08-15), the two meanings are formally disambiguated with suffixes: this protocol is now referenced as AICL-C (AI Content License / AI Content Licensing Layer) in cross-references and machine-readable metadata, while the ingestion architecture is AICL-I. This page keeps the plain "AICL" id and URL for continuity — no existing link breaks — but the AICL-C suffix is the disambiguated name going forward. See the AICL-I v0.2 whitepaper for the full ingestion/capability/runtime-control architecture, which is a separate integration layer, not a seventh rights protocol.
