Metadata normalization
How agent URIs become structured, queryable metadata.
Metadata may be embedded as a data URI or resolved through HTTP and IPFS. Normalization is asynchronous so webhook delivery remains fast and resilient.
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
available | Successfully fetched and normalized. |
partial | Some useful fields were accepted; others were absent or invalid. |
pending | Waiting for or currently undergoing normalization. |
unavailable | No usable document could be produced. |
Before saving a fetched document, the worker confirms that the agent URI has not changed. A result from an older URI is discarded rather than overwriting newer on-chain state.
