SALARAHandbook

The Evidence

Research Library

The Handbook defines SALARA. The Research Library explains SALARA's concepts through focused articles, public evidence, and stable reference paths.

SALARA concepts

Chapter 6 introduces the concepts. The Research Library explores them.

These articles expand on the concepts introduced in Chapter 6 while preserving the Handbook as the canonical overview of SALARA.

SALARA concept articleAssertionsAssertions are the atomic governed units of Organizational Intelligence in SALARA.SALARA concept articleGovernanceGovernance is how SALARA decides what organizational knowledge may become trusted Organizational Intelligence.SALARA concept articleRuntimeRuntime is the SALARA layer that applies activated Organizational Intelligence to answer or guide requests.SALARA concept articleCompilationCompilation is the controlled transformation of approved Assertions into deterministic, deployable Organizational Intelligence.SALARA concept articlePublicationPublication is the controlled step that makes compiled Organizational Intelligence available for activation.SALARA concept articleActivationActivation selects a published Organizational Intelligence artifact for Runtime use in a defined context.SALARA concept articleKnowledge CI/CDKnowledge CI/CD is the governed path by which knowledge enters SALARA before it can become runtime-authoritative.SALARA concept articleOrganizational Intelligence CompilerThe Organizational Intelligence Compiler is the SALARA component that transforms approved Assertions into deterministic, versioned, deployable Organizational Intelligence.SALARA concept articleReplayReplay makes SALARA Runtime behavior inspectable by reconstructing what happened from recorded evidence.SALARA concept articleAcquisition ProvidersAcquisition Providers are the bounded interfaces SALARA uses to bring source material into the governed intake lifecycle.SALARA concept articleUniversal IntelligenceUniversal Intelligence is shared reference intelligence that can support multiple SALARA domains and organizations.

Canonical evidence objects

organizational context

Public sources only. The records are intentionally concise so Handbook chapters, topic search, and Knowledge CI/CD integrations can reuse the same evidence model.

Announcing the Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A)

Google introduced Agent2Agent as an open protocol for agents built by different vendors or frameworks to communicate, exchange information, and coordinate work across enterprise environments.

What the source reports

  • The announcement introduces an open protocol for communication and coordination between agents built on different frameworks.
  • It describes enterprise scenarios in which agents can exchange information and coordinate work across systems.

Why it matters here

Chapter 4 uses this historical industry development to show why increasingly collaborative agent ecosystems heighten the need for consistent organizational context.

Guided Intelligence interpretation

Google does not claim that A2A creates governed Organizational Intelligence. The handbook's analysis is narrower: interoperability makes consistent context, evidence, and accountability more important across collaborating agents.
