I would disagree since I believe web agents and computer using agents that act like human on the web do need a way to authenticate and UI has a big component to that.
A2A works with implicit OAuth Flow but for web agents and computer using agents having a flow of OAuth 2.1 + OIDC is rational.
Check this repo out once https://github.com/auth-agent/auth-agent.
I do want to read the article fully and I will get back to you.
Thanks for the article!
I created Autosign earlier, which combined AgentMail and BrowserUse to let agents pass email verification. It worked for a while but I still faced problems like hCaptcha and other blockers. That made it clear to me that AI agents need an efficient way to sign in that is not a turnaround or bypass solution built on top of human login systems.
Auth-Agent is the result of that. It is the world’s first OpenID Connect provider for AI agents. It provides a standard OAuth 2.1 / OIDC flow but the client is an AI agent instead of a human user. It is open source: https://github.com/auth-agent/auth-agent.
> there is no standard
Anonymous Credentials will be the standard and is currently in draft.
CF has a good write up about them

Also A2A would be better than this, then we can get the UI out of the way
