这篇论文讨论了如何让网站不再封杀AI代理，而是为它们设计合理的访问、收费和内容标注机制，比如ATML语言。适合关心Web未来和AI治理的人看。
该论文指出万维网基于人作为主要消费者的假设运行三十年，但AI代理的崛起使这一假设失效。论文提出在访问层为代理提供等效访问权限（通过速率限制和代理识别元数据），在经济层引入基于意图的层级框架和代币订阅模型，在内容层提出代理文本标记语言（ATML）和加密来源链对抗知识递归问题。包含十项设计原则，涵盖访问、经济、内容三个层面。
Towards an Agent-First Web: Redesigning the Web for AI Agents
The World Wide Web was built on an assumption held for three decades: the primary consumer of web content is a human being. This permeates every layer; its access model presumes human visitors, its economics rest on human attention, and its content targets human perception. The rapid emergence of AI agents as intermediaries between humans and web content invalidates this assumption. Yet the web resists agents through blanket blocking, CAPTCHA-based exclusion, and economic models that treat agent access as extraction rather than legitimate interaction. This paper proposes a principled redesign across three layers. At the access layer, agents acting for humans should inherit equivalent access rights, governed by rate limiting and agent identification metadata in HTTP requests, analogous to browser headers, alongside a dual-layer architecture serving human-readable and agent-optimized content from the same domain. At the economic layer, we propose an intent-based tier framework grounded in the agent-as-human-proxy principle: an agent's economic obligation mirrors that of the human it represents. A token-based subscription model meters content in tokens rather than pageviews, alongside a commissioned content economy anchoring AI content production in human intentionality. At the content layer, we identify epistemic recursion, the self-referential loop in which AI-generated content is consumed by agents to produce further content, progressively detaching web knowledge from human ground truth. We propose the Agent Text Markup Language (ATML), a four-level human supervision tier model, and a cryptographic provenance chain to counter this threat. Together these constitute ten design principles for an agent-first internet, one in which agents are first-class citizens whose integration requires renegotiating the web's foundational social contract across access, economics, and content.
