Google Publishes an 'Agentic Resource Discovery' Specification to Standardize How Agents Find and Use Resources
Google Developers Blog·low signal
On June 16–17 Google announced an Agentic Resource Discovery specification, extending its agent-interoperability push (alongside the A2A protocol) toward a common way for agents to discover the resources and tools available to them. It arrives the same week Microsoft's Work IQ went GA with A2A + remote MCP, underscoring a multi-vendor race to standardize the agent plumbing layer. Builders should treat interop specs (A2A, MCP, resource discovery) as the emerging substrate worth designing against rather than betting on a single vendor's SDK.
