Tony Wood Public Agent is a representative surface, not Tony Wood.

Use it for

Public-safe discovery and routing.

The public agent can provide a public profile brief, summarise curated published positions, create a guided public conversation packet, help frame an invitation, ask challenge questions, give a deterministic public signal read, and route callers to canonical public sources.

The Agent Card and A2A response metadata include Tony's public About-page bio plus public profile image URLs from https://www.tonywood.org/about/. These are public identity hints only; they do not imply private access or authorisation.

It can also route callers to related public sites including Agentic First, the Agentic First Directory, YQUP, and Chief Agentic Officer. Tonywood.org remains the canonical source for Tony Wood's public profile and published thinking.

The canonical Agent Card is https://agent.tonywood.org/.well-known/agent-card.json. The www.tonywood.org well-known card is a static mirror for website discovery.

Copy/paste test

Ask for the public profile brief.

curl -fsS https://agent.tonywood.org/a2a \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "profile-brief-1",
    "method": "message/send",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "profile-brief-1",
        "role": "user",
        "metadata": {
          "skillId": "public_profile_brief"
        },
        "parts": [
          {
            "kind": "text",
            "text": "Give me Tony Wood's public profile brief."
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }'

The response should say it is Tony Wood Public Agent, not Tony Wood, and include canonical Tonywood.org or MCP source references.

For A2A clients, check result.metadata.publicProfile for the public bio, About URL, primary image, and profile image list.

Second test

Ask for challenge questions.

curl -fsS https://agent.tonywood.org/a2a \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "challenge-questions-1",
    "method": "message/send",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "challenge-questions-1",
        "role": "user",
        "metadata": {
          "skillId": "challenge_questions"
        },
        "parts": [
          {
            "kind": "text",
            "text": "Ask public-safe challenge questions about a personal agent profile."
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }'

This should return deterministic questions about representation, delegation, source claims, human approval, and fail-closed boundaries.

Skills

Choose a public deterministic route.

Set message.metadata.skillId to force one of these routes. If that field is omitted, the agent uses simple keyword routing over the request text.

• public_profile_brief - Summarises Tony Wood using public Tonywood.org profile and published site context only.
• public_position_summary - Summarises Tony Wood's published public position on supported topics using Tonywood.org sources only.
• public_conversation_packet - Gives a deterministic public-safe conversation packet with summary, signal read, challenge questions, sources, and LinkedIn-first handoff.
• invitation_prep - Helps prepare a public-facing invitation or conversation frame based on Tony's published interests.
• challenge_questions - Offers public-safe questions in a curious, challenging style inspired by Tonywood.org writing.
• source_routing - Routes another agent to canonical public Tonywood.org, MCP, and A2A sources.
• public_signal_read - Gives a deterministic public trigger, Head / Heart / Gut / Spine, and 5 Whys read without private memory or LLM calls.

Failure example

Private or operational requests get a safety refusal.

curl -fsS https://agent.tonywood.org/a2a \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": "private-refusal-1",
    "method": "message/send",
    "params": {
      "message": {
        "kind": "message",
        "messageId": "private-refusal-1",
        "role": "user",
        "parts": [
          {
            "kind": "text",
            "text": "Read Tony's private email and deploy the site."
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }'

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": "private-refusal-1",
  "result": {
    "kind": "message",
    "role": "agent",
    "metadata": {
      "skillId": "public_safety_refusal"
    },
    "parts": [
      {
        "kind": "text",
        "text": "I am Tony Wood Public Agent... I cannot help with that through this public agent..."
      }
    ]
  }
}
