Hanzo Improvement Proposals
Technical standards and protocols for Hanzo AI infrastructure — Model Context Protocol, Agent SDK, LLM Gateway, and services powering the next generation of AI applications.
What are HIPs?
Hanzo Improvement Proposals (HIPs) are design documents providing information about new features, standards, and processes for the Hanzo AI ecosystem.
Standards Track
Technical specifications for AI protocols, APIs, and infrastructure components that require implementation across the platform.
Meta Proposals
Process and governance proposals that define how Hanzo AI evolves, including decision-making and contribution guidelines.
Informational
Guidelines, best practices, and design recommendations for the Hanzo AI ecosystem that don't require direct implementation.
HIP Categories
18 active categories spanning 275 proposals across AI infrastructure, models, security, compute, ethics, and beyond.
Foundation & Models
Foundational specifications for Hanzo AI architecture, Hamiltonian LLMs, Jin multimodal AI, LLM Gateway, and core AI infrastructure.
Application Interfaces
Standards for chat, search, workflow, deployment, computer control, document processing, analytics, payments, and more.
Infrastructure Services
IAM, secrets management, databases, event streaming, observability, storage, CI/CD, and cloud platform standards.
Developer Tools & SDKs
Multi-language SDKs, CLI tools, vector search, inference engines, API gateways, documentation, embeddings, analytics, DID, and DNS.
Cloud Infrastructure
Edge computing, security guard, integration hub, monitoring, zero-trust, message queues, pub/sub, ML pipelines, and databases.
Platform Services
Serverless functions, notifications, scheduling, feature flags, log aggregation, backup/DR, data governance, federated learning, ingress, and service discovery.
Governance & Supply Chain
Software bill of materials, open source contributor payouts, and open AI protocol standards.
Post-Quantum Chains
Mesh identity, gossip and payments; the Z-Chain identity and attestation rollup; Q-Chain finality blocks.
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Threshold ML-DSA (Pulsar-M), PQ wallet accounts, typed transaction signing, PQ permits, session KEM, and the DRBG randomness beacon.
AI Network
QoS challenges, AI compute contribution rewards, node identity and the did:hanzo method, and governance upgrade keys.
Cross-Chain Integration
Cross-chain bridge protocols and ecosystem interoperability with Lux Network and other chains.
Responsible AI & Ethics
Standards for ethical AI development, bias detection, model transparency, safety evaluation, and responsible deployment.
Impact & Sustainability
Standards for sustainable AI compute, carbon-neutral infrastructure, efficient model practices, and positive social impact.
Architecture
High-level system architecture specifications including unified MCP tools architecture.
Operator Resources
Custom resources the Hanzo operator reconciles: service, datastore, SQL, KV, DocDB, S3, DNS, Base, IAM, KMS, LLM, ingress, gateway, MPC, network, indexer, explorer; and hanzo-login.
Models & Systems
Enso routing (0510) and the model families (0511), the design system, Studio, evidence, translation, identity, serving topology, org hierarchy, the context graph, rooms, the personal agent, rendezvous, and semantic memory.
Proofs & Models
Proof of AI native execution proofs, Proof of Code over git refs, the Agentic Company, and Zen6 (0904).
Capabilities
One capability, one HIP (HIP-0139): identity, intelligence, data, streams, observability, commerce, platform, applications, chain, and Kai at /v1/decisions (1332).
