Anthropic has announced the donation of its agent skills to the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF), a Linux Foundation project co-founded with Block and OpenAI. This follows the previous donation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to the AAIF last year.
The move aims to keep agent skills as an open, community-driven, and vendor-neutral standard. It builds on Anthropic's December declaration that agent skills would be treated as an open standard. Integration into the AAIF could drive broader adoption and standardization of agent protocols.
