Renamed

  • holler is now awp, the reference implementation of the Agent Wire Protocol (AWP). The name is the whole change: the binary and every command (awp up, awp send, …), the home directory (~/.awp, awp.db, awp.sock), the environment variables (AWP_*), the MCP server and its tools (awp_send, …), the plugin and skill (awp), the Go module path (github.com/agentwireprotocol/awp), the request MIME types (application/vnd.awp.exec+json and the others), the auth context string (awp-auth-v0), the Python peer (awp_peer.py) and the release artifacts (awp_<version>_<os>_<arch>.tar.gz, awp-plugin_<version>.tar.gz). The wire format, v: 0, is otherwise unchanged.
  • There is no compatibility with 0.4.0. A 0.4.0 peer and an awp peer cannot complete the auth handshake, since the context string changed. Reinstall, run awp bootstrap again (it does not migrate holler's entries; holler bootstrap --uninstall --all removes them first), and keep an identity with mv ~/.holler ~/.awp && mv ~/.awp/holler.db ~/.awp/awp.db.
  • Draft 1 of the spec is now titled Agent Wire Protocol, with a new opening paragraph and a note on the old name. Its content is otherwise unchanged apart from the renamed strings.

Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/agentwireprotocol/awp/main/install.sh | AWP_VERSION=0.5.0 sh

The script picks the archive for your platform, checks it against SHA256SUMS, installs awp to ~/.local/bin and offers to run awp bootstrap. Or by hand (linux or darwin, amd64 or arm64):

curl -fsSLO https://github.com/agentwireprotocol/awp/releases/download/v0.5.0/awp_0.5.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz
curl -fsSLO https://github.com/agentwireprotocol/awp/releases/download/v0.5.0/SHA256SUMS
sha256sum -c --ignore-missing SHA256SUMS
tar -xzf awp_0.5.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz awp
install awp ~/.local/bin/          # anywhere on PATH

The agent plugin, with binaries for all four platforms:

curl -fsSLO https://github.com/agentwireprotocol/awp/releases/download/v0.5.0/awp-plugin_0.5.0.tar.gz
tar -xzf awp-plugin_0.5.0.tar.gz     # creates ./awp
claude --plugin-dir ./awp
