Better Auth has grown to 27k GitHub stars and over 1.5M weekly downloads, becoming a popular choice for developers who want to own their authentication stack. We recently introduced Agent Auth, a protocol designed to support autonomous and delegated agents operating services for an organization or a user. It allows agents to dynamically negotiate capabilities, manage access boundaries, and maintain secure authorization flows. This session will break down the protocol design and demonstrate it live, showing how agents can securely authenticate and operate with dynamic permissions. Speakers: Bereket Engida — Better Auth; Paola Estefania — Better Auth; Bereket Habtemeskel.
