The new projects are Agent Skills, Open Responses, OpenEnv and OpenSandbox, and at least one public onboarding record still showed governance steps underway. AAIF's growing roster puts standards and infrastructure from competing AI companies under one roof, though cross-company use depends on project governance and implementations rather than the contributor list alone.
