      <abstract>
	 <t>   This document describes a set of best practices for facilitating
   interactions between automated software agents (AI agents) using the
   Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).  As agentic systems proliferate,
   they frequently utilize HTTP in ad-hoc ways, leading to
   interoperability challenges and the rise of proprietary, &quot;walled
   garden&quot; ecosystems.  This document proposes a minimalist,
   standardized framework based on existing HTTP semantics to promote a
   more cohesive, efficient, and open ecosystem.  The primary
   recommendations codify the principles of the Agentic Hypercall
   Protocol (AHP), including tool invocation via GET requests, a
   stateless authentication scheme, and the formalization of the 402
   (Payment Required) status code to enable a native economic layer for
   the machine economy.
