Agentic Service-Oriented Computing: A Manifesto for the Next Frontier of Service-Oriented Computing

arXiv:2607. 12619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid emergence of LLM-powered autonomous and semi-autonomous agents is reshaping software systems from static, request-response components into goal-directed, adaptive, and tool-using computational actors.

Five Primitives for Governing Autonomous AI Agents at Runtime

The paper proposes five runtime primitives—discovery, identity, governance, attestation, and supply chain—to manage autonomous AI agents in enterprise settings. It argues that traditional control models fail because agents are transient, model-driven, and self‑discoverable, making runtime governance essential. The authors detail an implementation that mediates agent actions against policy, authorizes them via a per‑tenant vocabulary, and records them in a verifiable ledger, noting the associated operational costs and partial deployment status.

Towards Agentic Cloud Engineering: Graph and Loop Engineering with a Zero-Trust Agent Harness

The paper introduces Agentic Cloud Workflow Engineering, a framework that converts natural‑language agentic cloud‑engineering tasks into validated code repositories and verified cloud deployments. It separates graph engineering for long‑horizon workflow progression, loop engineering for bounded diagnosis and recovery, and agent harness engineering for zero‑trust execution. Experiments on Google Cloud show that executions either produce a verified deployment or an auditable terminal failure within bounded recovery limits.

AgentKernel: The Trust-Native Agentic Operating System

AgentKernel proposes a trust‑native operating system for AI agents, arguing that current governance layers are insufficient because they share the same process trust boundary as the agents. The OS introduces a mandatory enforcement boundary organized into four pillars—Identity, Perception, Cognition, and Execution—each adapting classical OS security principles to address semantic‑level failures such as prompt injection, memory poisoning, and tool misuse. By wrapping the agent lifecycle in this structured, non‑bypassable framework, AgentKernel aims to provide a unified security layer that can enforce identity, input mediation, memory governance, and execution control across the entire agent lifecycle.
