The Commons is the **linguistic core** of CommandLayer — a neutral, MIT-licensed, schema-first action vocabulary for autonomous agents.

Without a shared canonical action vocabulary:

- agents become incompatible APIs

- behaviors drift → validation breaks

- chaining fails across ecosystems

- trust collapses into private platforms

- every agent becomes an incompatible API

- verbs collide and fragment

- routing, intent resolution, and validation fail

The Commons prevents fragmentation — ensuring every agent can **speak the same language**, validate the same rules, and interoperate trustlessly across any runtime.

- Agents become API silos

Commons is the **semantic safety net** for the agent economy.
