Build a third-party runtime for the Standard Agent Specification
The spec defines the agent runtime contract but is deliberately unopinionated about implementations: any runtime that complies — in Rust, Go or any language that can execute the spec's TypeScript — is welcome. The spec's authors will host links to third-party runtimes on the spec site, making this an open-ecosystem play for infrastructure builders.

Problem: Only one public runtime exists; a portable agent ecosystem needs multiple compliant runtimes so agents truly run anywhere.
For: Teams building or hosting agents who want an alternative to the vendor's own Standard Agent Builder runtime.
