Auth.md introduces a standard for enabling automated agents to register and authenticate users on behalf of a service. It allows platforms to publish an 'auth.md' file at their domain to declare supported identity flows, scopes, and endpoints for self-serve agent discovery.
This resource is most valuable when developing platforms or applications that need to support automated AI agents acting on behalf of human users. It is ideal for scenarios where an agent needs to bypass standard manual registration forms to programmatically provision and access user accounts.
