-A string identifying this artifact. This SHOULD be a URN
-[[RFC8141]] or URI [[RFC3986]] (e.g., urn:example:agent:name).
-See Multi-Version Entries for uniqueness
-rules when multiple versions are present.
+A string uniquely identifying this artifact. This field is an open text format (e.g., any valid URI or URN is accepted). However, to ensure interoperability, identity uniqueness, and discoverability, the standard urn:ai naming structure is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and MUST be used for open or federated systems.
+
+Standard Naming Format:
+urn:ai:{publisher}:{namespace}:{name}
+
+{publisher}: The domain name of the organization publishing the artifact (e.g., example.com).
+
+{namespace}: The logical namespace, which can contain one or more colon-separated categories (e.g., mcp, skill, agent, finance:agent).
+
+{name}: The stable, unique name of the artifact within the publisher's namespace.
+
+Examples:
+- urn:ai:example.com:skill:code-review
+- urn:ai:example.com:mcp:weather
+
+For closed or local systems where a different identifier format is used, client implementations are responsible for parsing and processing the custom format as appropriate.
+
+See Multi-Version Entries for uniqueness rules when multiple versions are present.
