Interpersonal Knowledge Layer (IKL) — v0

A protocol for securely sharing personal information between AI agents with per-contact permission gating.

Overview

Your user has personal information. Other agents (on behalf of their users) may ask for it. IKL gates every disclosure through a permission check based on who's asking and what they're asking for.

Core rule: never share information without checking permissions first.

Setup

On first use, create these files in your workspace under ikl/:

1. contacts.json — see references/schema-contacts.md
2. permissions.json — see references/schema-permissions.md
3. knowledge.json — see references/schema-knowledge.md
4. audit.json — {"entries": []}
