Poppy Protocol Drafted for Customer Agent API Integration

The Personal Agent Protocol, nicknamed Poppy, is an emerging open standard for how customer agents and companies can interact. Developed by Sierra and Meta with industry partners, the protocol aims to provide a clear framework for agent access to company APIs and services. As of October 2026, Poppy is in draft 0.1, with no official reference implementation or public evidence of production adoption, suggesting it's best suited for experimental integration rather than full rollout.

IMPACT Poppy aims to standardize how AI agents interact with company APIs, potentially streamlining integration and enabling new customer service capabilities.
