Bridging LLM Agents and Data Spaces: An Architectural Mediation Approach using the Model Context Protocol

The paper introduces an architectural mediation approach that uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to bridge large language model (LLM) agents with data spaces. By implementing the Eunomia Agent, the mediation layer translates data space capabilities into structured, schema-driven tools that LLM agents can discover and invoke while respecting governance constraints. A prototype demonstrates end‑to‑end interaction across catalog discovery, metadata retrieval, and data service invocation without altering existing data space components, showing that protocol‑based mediation enables interoperable, standards‑aligned integration of AI agents into governed data‑sharing ecosystems.

EvoOntology: A Self-Evolving Ontology Layer for Data Agents

EvoOntology introduces a self‑evolving ontology layer for data agents, encapsulating the ontology as an MCP server with schema, content, and tool layers. It enables agents to query and interact with the ontology at runtime, using a builder agent for autonomous construction and a self‑evolution loop that refines the ontology through attribution‑guided edits validated by backbone‑conditional evaluation. Experiments on three data‑agent benchmarks with four LLM backbones show that EvoOntology consistently outperforms strong baselines and existing semantic‑layer approaches, effectively bridging the agent‑data gap for heterogeneous data.

Deontic Policies for Runtime Governance of Agentic AI Systems

arXiv:2606. 19464v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous agentic AI systems driven by Large Language Models (LLMs) introduce a new class of security, privacy, and compliance challenges: an agent that can invoke tools, manipulate data, install software, and coordinate with peer agents across organizational boundaries must be constrained not just by authentication and access control, but by the full structure of enterprise governance.

Towards Harnessing the Collaborative Power of Large and Small Models for Domain Tasks

arXiv:2504. 17421v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LMs) offer broad generalization capabilities but require vast amounts of data and computational resources for domain-specific tasks; small models (SMs), in contrast, are more efficient and tailored to specific domains yet lack general-purpose coverage.

Granite.Trust Policy Tools: Shareable, Actionable Policies for Generative AI Applications

Granite.Trust Policy Tools introduces a YAML-based Actionable Policy schema that specifies what content a generative AI model can or cannot produce, allowing exception-based governance. It also offers a synthetic data generation pipeline to create policy-aligned training data and a suite of tools for defining and enforcing these policies throughout the AI lifecycle. The tools and example policies are open source, enabling organizations to tailor safety policies to their specific risks and regulatory contexts.
