RFC 9114: The Human Is the Bottleneck
A deadpan standards document describing how intent travels from one human, through multiple AI agents, to another human who must eventually acknowledge it.
Field notes
HAAH/1.0 models an intent pipeline with four named roles, including a Producing Agent that expands a short request into a complete artifact and a Reviewing Agent that returns ranked findings with line numbers. The document says the first three legs are fast and deterministic, while delivery remains pending until the Terminating Human acknowledges the result. Its RFC vocabulary extends to latency budgets, congestion control, status codes, and a proposed SHOULD HAVE keyword.
