support (SLIMRPC), and a clean separation of control and data planes for
scalability—serving as the transport for A2A, MCP, and custom agent protocols.

## Why use SLIM

<div class="grid cards" markdown>

- :material-transit-connection-variant:{ .lg .middle } **Transport for Agent Protocols**

Carry A2A, MCP, SLIMRPC, and custom agent protocols over a single secure
overlay instead of bespoke per-protocol networking.
