What this folder is: Three JSON files that declare the default agent automation policy for a whole origin / site. You copy one to your server and serve it at /.well-known/aom-policy.json (e.g. https://agentobjectmodel.org/.well-known/aom-policy.open.site.json). Agents use it as the site-wide default; per-page AOM™ can override it.
Spec: Format and behavior: well-known-policy.md. For a more detailed markdown explainer (including examples and agent behavior), see site-policy-explainer.md.
| Template | automation | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| well-known-templates/aom-policy.forbidden.site.json | forbidden | No agent automation on this origin. |
| well-known-templates/aom-policy.allowed.site.json | allowed | Agents may use surfaces when present. |
| well-known-templates/aom-policy.open.site.json | open | Origin publishes AOM in the open by default. |
Spec-local validators: Optional thin scripts next to the templates — validators/README.md (same validation as tools/ validators, different packaging).
Before deploying: Set expires (ISO 8601). Serve the chosen file at root/.well-known/ at your origin root.
