I-AICL — Uhlaka Lokunikezwa Kwelayisensi Kokuqukethwe Kwe-AI

01 · Incazelo

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 izimemezelo zamalungelo zibe imakethe yelayisensi esebenzayo esikhundleni sewebhu evulekile/evaliwe eyimbili.
• Yenza ijwayeleke inqubo yemishini-kuya-kwemishini: thola inqubomgomo → cela intengo → thola ilayisensi → sebenzisa → cwaninga.
• Gcina izinkokhelo zama-ejenti zinemikhawulo: izabelomali, imigqa yokugunyaza, amathokheni abophezelwe esicelweni, amarekhodi okucwaningwa agcwele.
• Nikeza abahlinzeki bokuqukethwe indlela eya enkokhelweni ngaphandle kokuvala amasayithi abo kwi-AI.

05 · Imikhawulo

• Le sayithi ayisebenzisi isango lenkokhelo; amalayisensi ezohwebo asekelwe ekuxhumaneni ku-v0.1.
• I-AICL iyisiphakamiso sephrothokholi — ayiqinisekisi ukuthi izinkampani ze-AI zizokhokha.
• Ukuthotshelwa kwenkokhelo, intela, kanye nemithetho yezezimali kungale kobubanzi bale drafu.
• Amafomethi amathokheni kanye nencazelo yezindawo kuseyikuhlolwa futhi kungashintsha.
• 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.
