🚀 Overview

VisualGridDev is a next-generation, Collaborative Visual Language Programming Platform for universal AI agent/protocol orchestration and hardware/protocols integrations which deploy to distributed mesh networks across cloud, edge, and hybrid environments. It unifies protocol compatibility (backwards protocols compatible and adaptive to future protocols implementations), self-healing, extensibility, and compliance for enterprise-grade systems. This repository centralizes system architecture and protocols proposals.

🏗️ Architecture Highlights

• Visual IDE: Web-based, event-driven, LabVIEW-style programming (Node-RED, React, Monaco)
• Universal Protocol: AGCP protocol with 40+ bridges (A2A, MCP, ANP, ACP, HTTP, MQTT, gRPC, etc.)
• Self-Healing: MAPE-K feedback loops, adaptive security, and auto-remediation
• Mesh Deployment: Cloud, edge, and p2p with Kubernetes, Docker, and GitOps
• Extensibility: Hot-loadable plugins, schema importers, and manifest-based extension system
• Agent Roles: 70+ agent roles across 11 categories, fully documented
• Monitoring: Real-time dashboards, observability, and audit logs
• Compliance: Explicit mapping to EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, IEEE CertifAIEd, GDPR, SOC2, ISO 27001, HIPAA
• Future-Proof: Quantum, edge AI, 6G, and emerging tech ready
