Interaction is a fundamental part of multiagent systems, and is usually regulated by protocols. Typically, these protocols are defined at design-time. However, there exist situations where it is desirable to generate protocols at runtime. We develop an algorithm to generate commitment protocols considering the agent's goals, its capabilities and its domain knowledge about the other agents' goals and services. We then provide a method to rank these protocols in terms of their risk and benefit in order to select the one that best suits the agent's current state.
