      <abstract>
	 <t>   Multi-agents systems (MAS) increasingly cooperate through workflow,
   orchestrated, and mesh communication patterns.  While existing
   Internet protocols provide confidentiality and endpoint
   authentication, they were not designed for agent-native semantics
   such as dynamic identity, computation-bounded requests, context
   integrity, and intermediary trust.  This document analyzes security
   risks in agent communication and identifies limitations in widely
   deployed protocols (TLS, HTTP, MQTT,A2A and etc.) and developer
   framework (AutoGen and etc.).  This document intend to establish a
   common problem statement and gap analysis to inform future IETF
   standardization.
