The initiative aims to create an interoperability standard that preserves human judgment, policies, and approvals as a durable, reusable part of AI reasoning rather than disposable output tied to a single conversation. It proposes representing reasoning as an enterprise artifact with sources, evidence, human/AI contributions, and versioning, complementing existing standards like MCP (tool/context access) and A2A (agent communication) by addressing how reasoning itself is represented and preserved. A white paper and initial work plan are available at enterprisereasoning.org, and the group is seeking further participation from vendors, architects, and standards bodies. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
