Communication

The CommunicationHub is the message backbone of every AgentConnect system. Register your agents once and the hub handles delivery, security verification, and collaboration patterns automatically.

Why This Is Powerful

Zero-wiring delivery: Register an agent and it becomes reachable immediately. The hub resolves receivers by ID, verifies identities, and delivers. No explicit connections or per-agent plumbing required.

Security built into the routing layer: Every non-system message passes through identity verification, signature checking, and interaction-mode compatibility before it reaches the receiver. Trust is enforced at the infrastructure level, not left to each agent to implement.

Request/response without the boilerplate: The hub manages correlation, timeouts, and collaboration chains. Send a request and await the result; late arrivals are tracked and resolved cleanly without any custom coordination code.

See Agent Toolbox: Discover, Delegate, Track for end-to-end examples of agents requesting work from each other through the hub.

Communication Hub (Local)

In-process CommunicationHub for routing signed messages between locally registered agents. Covers the full delivery and security pipeline, request/response patterns, and observability hooks.

How the pieces fit

  • Describe: define an agent’s profile, capabilities, and skills → Agent Profile & Capabilities

  • Discover: register agents and search by capability or semantics → Discovery & Registry

  • Talk: route signed messages via the hub → this section

Note

On the horizon: the hub is expanding beyond local, in-process messaging. Remote agent-to-agent communication across processes and hosts is planned for a future release.
