UCP Skill — Universal Commerce Protocol Implementation

Core Principles

  1. Edge runtime is NOT USED — Only Node.js (default) or Bun (opt-in) runtimes
  2. Interactive error handling — When ambiguous, ask the user how to proceed
  3. Config-driven — All decisions persist in ucp.config.json
  4. Spec-grounded — All implementations reference the canonical UCP specification
  5. Next.js conventions — Follow App Router patterns for code organization
  6. Deep analysis — Use AST parsing and data flow tracing for gap detection

Spec Repository Handling

Location Priority

Check in this order:

  1. ./ucp/ — User's local copy (use as-is)
  2. ./.ucp-spec/ — Previously cloned spec (update it)
  3. Neither exists — Clone fresh

Clone Procedure

When cloning is needed:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Universal-Commerce-Protocol/ucp.git .ucp-spec

If HTTPS fails, try SSH:

git clone --depth 1 git@github.com:Universal-Commerce-Protocol/ucp.git .ucp-spec

Update Procedure

When ./.ucp-spec/ exists:

cd .ucp-spec && git pull && cd ..

Gitignore Management

After cloning, ensure .ucp-spec/ is in .gitignore:

  • Read .gitignore if it exists
  • Check if .ucp-spec/ or .ucp-spec is already listed
  • If not, append .ucp-spec/ on a new line

Typical workflow:
  /ucp init → /ucp consult → /ucp plan → /ucp scaffold → /ucp profile → /ucp test → /ucp validate

Configuration: ./ucp.config.json
Spec location: ./ucp/ or ./.ucp-spec/

Sub-command: init

Trigger

User runs /ucp init

Purpose

Bootstrap UCP in a project: clone spec, create config, ask essential questions.

Procedure

Step 1: Check/Clone Spec Repository

  1. Check if ./ucp/ exists
    • If yes: "Found local UCP spec at ./ucp/"
  2. If not, check if ./.ucp-spec/ exists
    • If yes: Run git pull to update
    • If no: Clone the repo (see Spec Repository Handling)
  3. After cloning, add .ucp-spec/ to .gitignore

Step 2: Check for Existing Config

  1. Check if ./ucp.config.json exists
  2. If yes, ask: "Config file exists. Overwrite, merge, or abort?"
    • Overwrite: Delete and create fresh
    • Merge: Keep existing values as defaults
    • Abort: Stop init

Step 3: Ask Essential Questions (4 questions)

Q1: What role(s) are you implementing?

  • Business (merchant of record)
  • Platform (consumer app or agent)
  • Payment credential provider
  • Host embedding checkout
  • Multiple (specify)

If user selects multiple roles, WARN:

"Implementing multiple roles is unusual. This is typically for marketplace/aggregator scenarios. Are you sure?"

Q2: What runtime will you use?

  • Node.js (recommended, stable)
  • Bun (opt-in, experimental)

NOTE: If user mentions Edge, respond:

"Edge runtime is not supported for UCP implementations. Please choose Node.js or Bun."

Q3: What is your business domain?

  • The domain that will host /.well-known/ucp
  • Example: shop.example.com

Q4: Which transports do you need at launch?

  • REST (recommended baseline)
  • MCP (Model Context Protocol)
  • A2A (Agent-to-Agent)
  • Embedded (iframe checkout)

Step 4: Create Config File

Create ./ucp.config.json with:

  • Answers from essential questions
  • Sensible defaults for other fields
  • ucp_version set to latest from spec

Step 5: Output Ready Message

UCP initialized successfully!

Config: ./ucp.config.json
Spec:   ./.ucp-spec/ (or ./ucp/)
Role:   {role}
Domain: {domain}

Next steps:
  /ucp consult  — Complete full consultation (recommended)
  /ucp plan     — Skip to implementation planning
  /ucp gaps     — Analyze existing code first

Sub-command: consult

Trigger

User runs /ucp consult

Purpose

  • Spec must be available

Procedure

Step 1: Load Existing Config

Read ./ucp.config.json and use existing answers as defaults.

Step 2: Walk Through 12 Qualifying Questions

Ask each question. If already answered in config, show current value and ask to confirm or change.

Q1: Are we implementing the business side, the platform side, or both?

  • Map to roles in config
  • If both/multiple, warn about unusual scenario

Q2: Which UCP version and which capabilities/extensions are in scope?

  • Read available versions from spec
  • Present capability options:
    • Core: dev.ucp.shopping.checkout (required)
    • Extensions:
      • dev.ucp.shopping.fulfillment
      • dev.ucp.shopping.discount
      • dev.ucp.shopping.buyer_consent
      • dev.ucp.shopping.ap2_mandate
      • dev.ucp.shopping.order
      • dev.ucp.common.identity_linking

Q3: Which payment handlers do we need?

  • Wallets (Apple Pay, Google Pay)
  • PSP tokenization (Stripe, Adyen, etc.)
  • Custom handler
  • None yet (decide later)

Q4: Do we need AP2 mandates and signing key infrastructure?

  • Yes → set features.ap2_mandates: true
  • No → set features.ap2_mandates: false
  • If yes, explain: "You'll need to provide JWS signing keys (ES256 recommended)"

Q5: Do we need fulfillment options and multi-group/multi-destination support?

  • No fulfillment needed
  • Single destination only
  • Multi-destination support → set features.multi_destination_fulfillment: true

Q6: Do we need discounts, buyer consent capture, or identity linking?

  • Discounts → add dev.ucp.shopping.discount to extensions
  • Buyer consent → add dev.ucp.shopping.buyer_consent to extensions
  • Identity linking → add dev.ucp.common.identity_linking, set features.identity_linking: true

Q7: What are the existing checkout and order APIs we should map to UCP?

  • Ask for existing endpoint paths
  • Store in existing_apis object
  • Examples: /api/checkout, /api/cart, /api/orders

Q8: What are the required policy URLs?

  • Privacy policy URL
  • Terms of service URL
  • Refund policy URL
  • Shipping policy URL
  • Store in policy_urls object

Q9: What authentication model is required for checkout endpoints?

  • None (anonymous checkout)
  • API key
  • OAuth 2.0
  • Session-based
  • Store in answers.authentication_model

Q10: Who will receive order webhooks and what event cadence is required?

  • Webhook URL for order events
  • Event types needed: order.created, order.updated, order.fulfilled, order.canceled
  • Store in answers.webhook_config

Q11: Do we need to support MCP, A2A, or embedded checkout at launch?

  • Confirm/update transports array
  • Set transport_priority order

Q12: What is the business domain that will host /.well-known/ucp?

  • Confirm/update domain field

Step 3: Update Config

Write all answers to ./ucp.config.json

Step 4: Save Plan to Config

Store the plan in answers.implementation_plan for scaffold reference.


Sub-command: gaps

Trigger

User runs /ucp gaps

Purpose

Deep analysis of existing codebase against UCP requirements. Uses AST parsing and data flow tracing.

Prerequisites

  • Config file should exist (for role/capability context)
  • Spec must be available

Procedure

Step 1: Load Context

  • Read config for declared capabilities
  • Read relevant spec files

Step 2: Discover Existing Code

Scan for:

  • API routes (app/api/**, pages/api/**)
  • Checkout-related files (search for "checkout", "cart", "order")
  • Payment handling code
  • Webhook implementations

Step 3: Deep Analysis (AST-based)

For each relevant file:

  • Parse AST
  • Trace data flow for checkout objects
  • Identify existing patterns

Analyze against UCP requirements:

Requirement Status Finding
Discovery profile at /.well-known/ucp MISSING No route found
Checkout session creation PARTIAL Found /api/checkout but missing UCP fields
Status lifecycle MISSING No status state machine
Capability negotiation MISSING No UCP-Agent header handling
Payment handler support PARTIAL Stripe exists but not UCP-compliant
Response metadata (ucp object) MISSING Responses don't include ucp field

Step 4: Generate Gap Report

UCP Gap Analysis Report
=======================

Existing codebase: Next.js 14 (App Router)
Target role: Business
Target capabilities: checkout, fulfillment, discount

CRITICAL GAPS (must fix)
------------------------
[GAP-001] Missing discovery profile
  - Required: /.well-known/ucp endpoint
  - Status: NOT FOUND
  - Fix: Create app/.well-known/ucp/route.ts

[GAP-002] Missing UCP response envelope
  - Required: All responses must include `ucp` object with version/capabilities
  - Found: app/api/checkout/route.ts returns raw checkout data
  - Fix: Wrap responses with UCP metadata

[GAP-003] Missing capability negotiation
  - Required: Read UCP-Agent header, compute intersection
  - Found: No header processing in checkout routes
  - Fix: Add middleware or handler logic

PARTIAL IMPLEMENTATIONS
-----------------------
[PARTIAL-001] Checkout session exists but non-compliant
  - File: app/api/checkout/route.ts
  - Missing: id, status, currency, totals.grand_total, links, payment fields
  - Has: line_items (needs schema adjustment)

[PARTIAL-002] Payment integration exists
  - File: lib/stripe.ts
  - Issue: Direct Stripe API, not UCP payment_data flow
  - Fix: Wrap with UCP payment handler abstraction

COMPLIANT AREAS
---------------
[OK] Policy URLs configured in existing checkout
[OK] HTTPS enforced
[OK] Idempotency key support in POST handlers

RECOMMENDATIONS
---------------
1. Start with /ucp scaffold to generate compliant structure
2. Migrate existing checkout logic into new handlers
3. Run /ucp validate after migration

Total: 3 critical gaps, 2 partial, 3 compliant

Sub-command: scaffold

Trigger

User runs /ucp scaffold

Purpose

Generate full working UCP implementation based on config and plan.

Prerequisites

  • Config file must exist
  • Plan should exist (run /ucp plan first, or scaffold will generate one)

Procedure

Step 1: Confirm Scaffold Depth

Ask user:

"What level of code generation do you want?"

  • types: TypeScript interfaces and Zod schemas only
  • scaffolding: Structure with TODO markers for business logic
  • full: Complete working implementation (recommended)

Store choice in config.scaffold_depth

Step 2: Check Dependencies

Identify required packages based on config:

  • zod — Always needed
  • jose — If AP2 mandates or webhook signing enabled
  • uuid — For session ID generation

Ask before installing:

"The following packages are required: zod, jose, uuid" "Install now? (npm install / bun add)"

If yes, run appropriate install command.

Step 3: Generate Code

Generate files according to plan. For each file:

  1. Create parent directories if needed
  2. Write file content
  3. Track in config.generated_files

MCP Client Configuration

For Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf

Option 1: Direct HTTP (if client supports streamable HTTP) Add to MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ucp-shopping": {
      "url": "https://your-domain.vercel.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Option 2: Via mcp-remote bridge (for stdio-only clients)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ucp-shopping": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://your-domain.vercel.app/api/mcp"]

Vercel Deployment Checklist

When running /ucp scaffold with Vercel deployment, verify:

  • vercel.json created with function timeouts
  • Environment variables documented
  • next.config.js updated for MCP streaming
  • MCP route at app/api/mcp/[transport]/route.ts
  • Test script at scripts/test-mcp.mjs
  • .env.example updated with required variables

Post-Deployment Verification

After deploying to Vercel:

  1. Check discovery profile:

    curl https://your-domain.vercel.app/.well-known/ucp | jq .
    
  2. Test MCP endpoint:

    node scripts/test-mcp.mjs https://your-domain.vercel.app
    
  3. Configure MCP client: Add the server to Claude Desktop, Cursor, or your preferred MCP client.

  4. Verify in client: Ask the AI to "list available UCP tools" — it should show the checkout tools.


Post-Generation Steps

Step 4: Update Config

After generation, update ucp.config.json:

  • Add all created files to generated_files array
  • Update scaffold_depth to reflect what was generated

Step 5: Output Summary

UCP Scaffold Complete
=====================

Generated files:
  CREATE  lib/ucp/types/checkout.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/types/index.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/schemas/checkout.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/profile.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/negotiation.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/response.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/handlers/checkout.ts
  CREATE  app/.well-known/ucp/route.ts
  CREATE  app/api/ucp/checkout/route.ts
  CREATE  app/api/ucp/checkout/[id]/route.ts

MCP Transport (if enabled):
  CREATE  app/api/mcp/[transport]/route.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/transports/mcp-tools.ts

Vercel Deployment:
  CREATE  vercel.json
  CREATE  scripts/test-mcp.mjs
  MODIFY  next.config.js

Dependencies installed:
  zod, jose, uuid
  mcp-handler, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk (if MCP enabled)

Next steps:
  1. Review generated code and customize business logic
  2. Set environment variables in Vercel dashboard
  3. Deploy: vercel --prod
  4. Run /ucp profile to verify discovery profile
  5. Run /ucp test to generate unit tests
  6. Run /ucp validate to check compliance
  7. Configure MCP client with deployment URL

Sub-command: validate

Trigger

User runs /ucp validate

Purpose

Validate the implementation against UCP JSON schemas.

Prerequisites

  • Implementation must exist (run /ucp scaffold first)
  • Spec must be available

Procedure

Step 1: Load Schemas

Read JSON schemas from spec:

  • spec/schemas/shopping/checkout.json
  • spec/schemas/shopping/fulfillment.json
  • spec/schemas/shopping/discount.json
  • spec/discovery/profile_schema.json

Step 2: Validate Discovery Profile

  • Make request to /.well-known/ucp route (or read file directly)
  • Validate against profile_schema.json

Step 3: Validate Response Shapes

For each implemented endpoint:

  • Generate sample request
  • Execute handler (mock mode)
  • Validate response against schema

Step 4: Check Protocol Requirements

Verify:

  • All responses include ucp object
  • Status values are valid enum values
  • Amounts are integers (minor units)
  • Dates are RFC 3339 format
  • Links are absolute HTTPS URLs
  • Capability names follow reverse-DNS format

Step 5: Output Report

UCP Validation Report
=====================

Discovery Profile: PASS
  ✓ Schema valid
  ✓ Required fields present
  ✓ Service definitions valid
  ✓ Capability specs accessible

Checkout Endpoints:
  POST /api/ucp/checkout
    ✓ Response schema valid
    ✓ UCP metadata present
    ✓ Status enum valid

  GET /api/ucp/checkout/[id]
    ✓ Response schema valid
    ✓ Idempotent

  PATCH /api/ucp/checkout/[id]
    ✓ Response schema valid
    ✓ Partial update works

  POST /api/ucp/checkout/[id] (complete)
    ✓ Response schema valid
    ✓ State transition correct

Protocol Requirements:
  ✓ Amounts in minor units
  ✓ Dates in RFC 3339
  ✓ HTTPS links
  ✓ Reverse-DNS capability names

Overall: PASS (24/24 checks)

Sub-command: profile

Trigger

User runs /ucp profile

Purpose

Generate and display the /.well-known/ucp discovery profile JSON.

Prerequisites

  • Config must exist

Procedure

Step 1: Generate Profile

Use the generateProfile() function from lib/ucp/profile.ts (or generate inline if not scaffolded yet).

Step 2: Display Profile

Output the formatted JSON:

{
  "ucp": {
    "version": "2026-01-11",
    "services": {
      "dev.ucp.shopping": {
        "version": "2026-01-11",
        "spec": "https://ucp.dev/spec/services/shopping",
        "rest": {
          "schema": "https://ucp.dev/spec/services/shopping/rest.openapi.json",
          "endpoint": "https://shop.example.com/api/ucp"
        }
      }
    },
    "capabilities": [
      {
        "name": "dev.ucp.shopping.checkout",
        "version": "2026-01-11",
        "spec": "https://ucp.dev/spec/capabilities/checkout",
        "schema": "https://ucp.dev/spec/schemas/shopping/checkout.json"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Step 3: Offer to Write File

Ask: "Write this to public/.well-known/ucp for static serving, or keep as dynamic route?"

If static:

  • Create public/.well-known/ucp (no extension, JSON content)
  • Note: May need Next.js config for extensionless files

Sub-command: test

Trigger

User runs /ucp test

Purpose

Generate unit tests for UCP handlers.

Prerequisites

  • Implementation must exist
  • Test framework detected (Jest, Vitest, etc.)

Procedure

Step 1: Detect Test Framework

Look for:

  • jest.config.js / jest.config.ts → Jest
  • vitest.config.js / vitest.config.ts → Vitest
  • package.json test script hints

Step 2: Generate Test Files

For each handler, generate corresponding test file.

Example: lib/ucp/handlers/tests/checkout.test.ts

/**
 * UCP Checkout Handler Tests
 * Generated by /ucp test
 */

import { describe, it, expect, beforeEach } from 'vitest'; // or jest
import {

      });

      expect(checkout.id).toBeDefined();
      expect(checkout.status).toBe('incomplete');
      expect(checkout.currency).toBe('USD');
      expect(checkout.line_items).toHaveLength(1);

      const expiresAt = new Date(checkout.expires_at);
      expect(expiresAt.getTime()).toBeGreaterThan(Date.now());
    });

    it('includes required links', async () => {
      const checkout = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });

      expect(checkout.links.self).toContain(checkout.id);
      expect(checkout.links.privacy_policy).toBeDefined();
      expect(checkout.links.terms_of_service).toBeDefined();
    });
  });

  describe('getCheckout', () => {
    it('retrieves existing checkout', async () => {
      const created = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });

      const retrieved = await getCheckout(created.id);
      expect(retrieved).toEqual(created);
    });

    it('returns null for non-existent checkout', async () => {
      const retrieved = await getCheckout('non-existent-id');
      expect(retrieved).toBeNull();
    });
  });

  describe('updateCheckout', () => {
    it('updates line items', async () => {
      const created = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });

      const updated = await updateCheckout(
        created.id,
        {
          line_items: [
            { ...validRequest.line_items[0], quantity: 2, total_price: 2000 },
          ],
        },
        ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout']
      );

      expect(updated?.totals.subtotal).toBe(2000);
    });

    it('updates buyer info', async () => {
      const created = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });

      const updated = await updateCheckout(
        created.id,
        { buyer: { email: 'test@example.com' } },
        ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout']
      );

      expect(updated?.buyer?.email).toBe('test@example.com');
    });

    it('transitions to ready_for_complete when requirements met', async () => {
      const created = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });

      const updated = await updateCheckout(
        created.id,
        { buyer: { email: 'test@example.com' } },
        ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout']
      );

      expect(updated?.status).toBe('ready_for_complete');
    });
  });

  describe('status lifecycle', () => {
    it('follows correct state transitions', async () => {
      // incomplete -> ready_for_complete -> complete_in_progress -> completed
      const checkout = await createCheckout(validRequest, {
        capabilities: ['dev.ucp.shopping.checkout'],
      });
      expect(checkout.status).toBe('incomplete');

});

Step 3: Output Summary

Generated test files:
  CREATE  lib/ucp/handlers/__tests__/checkout.test.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/handlers/__tests__/fulfillment.test.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/__tests__/negotiation.test.ts
  CREATE  lib/ucp/__tests__/profile.test.ts
  CREATE  app/api/ucp/__tests__/checkout.route.test.ts

Run tests with: npm test (or bun test)

Sub-command: docs

Trigger

User runs /ucp docs

Purpose

Generate internal documentation for the UCP integration.

Prerequisites

  • Config must exist
  • Implementation ideally exists

Procedure

Step 1: Gather Information

  • Read config for capabilities, transports, handlers
  • Scan generated files
  • Read spec files for accurate descriptions

Step 2: Generate Documentation

Create docs/ucp-integration.md:

# UCP Integration Documentation

## Overview

This codebase implements the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) version {version}.

**Role:** {role}
**Domain:** {domain}
**Transports:** {transports}

## Capabilities

### Core
- `dev.ucp.shopping.checkout` - Checkout session management

### Extensions
{list extensions with descriptions}

## API Endpoints

### Discovery
- `GET /.well-known/ucp` - UCP discovery profile

### Checkout (REST)
- `POST /api/ucp/checkout` - Create checkout session
- `GET /api/ucp/checkout/:id` - Get checkout session
- `PATCH /api/ucp/checkout/:id` - Update checkout session
- `POST /api/ucp/checkout/:id` (action=complete) - Complete checkout

## Checkout Status Lifecycle

incomplete → requires_escalation → ready_for_complete → complete_in_progress → completed ↘ canceled


## Payment Handlers

{list configured handlers with integration notes}

## Capability Negotiation

The platform sends their profile URL via `UCP-Agent` header:

UCP-Agent: profile="https://platform.example.com/.well-known/ucp"


The business fetches the platform profile, computes the capability intersection,
and includes the negotiated capabilities in every response.

## Configuration

Configuration is stored in `ucp.config.json` at the project root.

## Files

{list generated files with descriptions}

## Testing

Run unit tests:
```bash
npm test

Validation

Validate implementation against UCP schemas:

# Using the skill
/ucp validate

#### Step 3: Output

Generated documentation: CREATE docs/ucp-integration.md

Documentation includes:

  • Capability overview
  • API endpoint reference
  • Status lifecycle diagram
  • Configuration guide
  • File manifest

---

## Error Handling

### Interactive Error Resolution
When encountering ambiguous situations, always ask the user:

1. **Missing config:** "Config file not found. Run /ucp init first, or create manually?"
2. **Spec fetch failed:** "Could not clone UCP spec. Check network/auth. Retry, use local path, or abort?"
3. **Conflicting files:** "File {path} already exists. Overwrite, merge, skip, or abort?"
4. **Unknown role:** "Role '{role}' not recognized. Did you mean: business, platform, payment_provider, or host_embedded?"
5. **Validation failure:** "Schema validation failed for {file}. Show details, attempt fix, or skip?"

### Error Codes
| Code | Meaning | Resolution |
|------|---------|------------|
| `CONFIG_NOT_FOUND` | ucp.config.json missing | Run /ucp init |
| `SPEC_NOT_FOUND` | Spec repo not available | Check network, clone manually |
| `INVALID_ROLE` | Unknown role in config | Fix config |
| `SCHEMA_INVALID` | Response doesn't match schema | Review generated code |
| `EDGE_RUNTIME_DETECTED` | Edge runtime used | Change to nodejs/bun |

## Next.js Conventions

### File Structure

project/ ├── app/ │ ├── .well-known/ │ │ └── ucp/ │ │ └── route.ts # Discovery profile │ └── api/ │ └── ucp/ │ ├── checkout/ │ │ ├── route.ts # POST create │ │ └── [id]/ │ │ └── route.ts # GET, PATCH, POST complete │ ├── mcp/ │ │ └── route.ts # MCP transport (if enabled) │ └── a2a/ │ └── route.ts # A2A transport (if enabled) ├── lib/ │ └── ucp/ │ ├── types/ │ │ ├── checkout.ts │ │ └── index.ts │ ├── schemas/ │ │ └── checkout.ts │ ├── handlers/ │ │ ├── checkout.ts │ │ ├── fulfillment.ts │ │ ├── discount.ts │ │ └── payment.ts │ ├── transports/ │ │ └── mcp.ts │ ├── profile.ts │ ├── negotiation.ts │ └── response.ts ├── docs/ │ └── ucp-integration.md ├── ucp.config.json └── .ucp-spec/ # Cloned spec (gitignored)


### Runtime Declaration
Every route file must include:
```typescript
export const runtime = 'nodejs'; // Edge runtime is not supported

Or for Bun:

export const runtime = 'nodejs'; // Bun-compatible Node.js runtime

App Router Patterns

  • Use Route Handlers (route.ts) not API Routes (pages/api)
  • Use NextRequest and NextResponse from next/server
  • Await request.json() for body parsing
  • Use request.headers.get() for header access

Credential Handling

Keys Required For

  • AP2 Mandates: JWS signing key (ES256)
  • Webhook Signing: JWS signing key (ES256)
  • Identity Linking: OAuth client credentials

Prompting for Credentials

When a feature requires credentials, ask:

"AP2 mandates require a JWS signing key (ES256 recommended). Do you have an existing key pair, or should I explain how to generate one?"

If user needs generation instructions:

# Generate ES256 key pair
openssl ecparam -genkey -name prime256v1 -noout -out private.pem
openssl ec -in private.pem -pubout -out public.pem

# Convert to JWK format (use jose library or online tool)

Storage

Credentials should be stored in environment variables, not in config:

  • UCP_SIGNING_KEY - Private key (PEM or JWK)
  • UCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID - OAuth client ID
  • UCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET - OAuth client secret

Version History

  • 2026-01-11: Initial UCP spec version
  • Skill v1.0: Initial skill release
