Agent-Readiness Layer
The six conditions that determine whether economic objects are ready for AI-mediated discovery, comparison, verification, and transaction initiation. ARI is multiplicative: if one dimension is zero, agent-readiness becomes zero.
Primitives (9)
Agent-Readiness Index (ARI)
ARI(e) = D(e) × I(e) × C(e) × V(e) × P(e) × T(e) — A multiplicative index measuring whether an economic object is ready for AI-mediated discovery, comparison, verification, and transaction initiation.
Discoverability (D)
D(e) — The ability of AI agents to find an economic object through computational search and discovery mechanisms.
Interpretability (I)
I(e) — The degree to which an object is represented in machine-parseable forms that AI systems can understand and reason about.
Comparability (C)
C(e) — The extent to which an object's attributes enable machine comparison across alternatives within consideration sets.
Verifiability (V)
V(e) — The ability to verify claims about an object through trusted, machine-readable evidence sources.
Permissioned Access (P)
P(e) — The ability of AI agents to understand what actions are permitted and to act within defined authorization boundaries.
Transaction Capability (T)
T(e) — The ability of an object to support AI-mediated transaction initiation, from inquiry to settlement coordination.
Six Conditions of Agent-Readiness
D, I, C, V, P, T — Discoverability, Interpretability, Comparability, Verifiability, Permissioned Access, and Transaction Capability.
Computational Eligibility (CE)
CE(e) — The condition of being discoverable, interpretable, comparable, verifiable, permissioned, and actionable by artificial agents.
