NLWeb Standard

An NLWeb Standard is a semantic web interface standard that is a web development standard enabling natural language interfaces between AI agents and web applications (through semantic markup and intent specification).

• AKA: NLWeb Interface Standard, NLWeb Agent-Compatible Standard, NLWeb Protocol Standard, NLWeb Semantic Web Standard.
• Context:
  • It can typically define NLWeb Semantic Markup through NLWeb HTML annotation syntax.
  • It can typically specify NLWeb Intent Declarations through NLWeb action vocabulary definition.
  • It can typically enable NLWeb Agent Discovery through NLWeb capability manifest files.
  • It can typically support NLWeb Context Preservation through NLWeb session state annotation.
  • It can typically facilitate NLWeb Form Interaction through NLWeb natural language binding.
  • ...
  • It can often provide NLWeb Accessibility Features through NLWeb semantic role marking.
  • It can often enable NLWeb Multi-Language Support through NLWeb internationalization framework.
  • It can often support NLWeb Progressive Enhancement through NLWeb fallback mechanism.
  • It can often implement NLWeb Security Policy through NLWeb permission declaration.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Basic NLWeb Standard to being an Advanced NLWeb Standard, depending on its NLWeb semantic complexity.
  • It can range from being a Static NLWeb Standard to being a Dynamic NLWeb Standard, depending on its NLWeb interaction capability.
  • It can range from being a Domain-Specific NLWeb Standard to being a General-Purpose NLWeb Standard, depending on its NLWeb application scope.
  • It can range from being a Minimal NLWeb Standard to being a Comprehensive NLWeb Standard, depending on its NLWeb feature coverage.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Schema.org Vocabulary for structured data markup.
  • It can connect to OpenAPI Specifications for API documentation.
  • It can interface with ARIA Standards for accessibility compliance.
  • It can communicate with JSON-LD Formats for linked data representation.
  • It can synchronize with Web Components Standards for reusable interface elements.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • NLWeb Standard Implementations, such as:
    • E-commerce NLWeb Implementation for NLWeb shopping agent interaction.
    • Banking NLWeb Implementation for NLWeb financial service automation.
    • Healthcare NLWeb Implementation for NLWeb medical information access.
  • NLWeb Standard Features, such as:
    • NLWeb Action Vocabulary for NLWeb intent specification.
    • NLWeb Context Annotation for NLWeb state preservation.
    • NLWeb Discovery Manifest for NLWeb capability advertisement.
  • NLWeb Standard Use Cases, such as:
    • NLWeb Form Filling Automation for NLWeb data entry tasks.
    • NLWeb Content Navigation Enhancement for NLWeb information retrieval tasks.
    • NLWeb Transaction Processing Support for NLWeb e-commerce tasks.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Traditional HTML Markup, which lacks semantic agent instruction.
  • REST API Standard, which requires programmatic integration rather than natural language interface.
  • Screen Reader Markup, which targets accessibility tools rather than AI agents.
  • SEO Metadata, which optimizes for search engines rather than agent interaction.
