Akii terms
Client brand, Commerce Graph, Agent Gateway, Action Registry, Protocol Compatibility, Answer QA, public source, approved source, customer action path, published output, drift, issue, fix, and graph version are the terms most docs pages rely on.
- Client brand: the account unit for one service-business client, location group, or brand identity.
- Commerce Graph: the approved profile of client facts, offers, policies, locations, and actions.
- Agent Gateway: the approved publishing layer for structured data, partner access, and read-only AI access.
- Action Registry: the map from buyer intent to approved next steps such as buy, book, call, WhatsApp, quote, deposit, or form.
- Answer QA: checks that compare approved graph data with public sources, AI answers, published output, and customer paths.
Protocol terms
ACP, UCP, MCP, A2A, AP2, AG-UI, A2UI, Schema.org, JSON-LD, Agent Card, mandate, tool, resource, profile, export, and readiness describe standards-adjacent surfaces that Akii prepares or validates where implemented.
- Readiness: an Akii check that required client fields, sources, policies, publishing settings, and action paths are present.
- Certification: a formal external approval program. Akii does not claim it unless it is explicitly verified.
- MCP tool: a read-only tool surface that exposes approved public client data, not write access or transactions.
- Agent Card: an A2A-style discovery payload that describes safe client capabilities and handoff boundaries.
- JSON-LD: structured public data generated from approved Commerce Graph fields for search and AI systems.
How to use this glossary
Use this page as the first stop when a report, published output, or protocol status uses a term that could be confused with a marketing claim. The glossary keeps Akii language tied to approved client data, support status, public/private boundaries, and safe protocol wording.
