  • added

    Cursor Origin + Grok Voice Agent API — Cursor Origin (sys://anysphere/cursor-origin) — Anysphere's agent-first code hosting and PR platform, first verified platform entry. Grok Voice Agent API (sys://xai/grok-voice) — xAI's speech-to-speech voice platform with telephony and a no-code builder. Cursor added as a dev-tool integration target.

  • added

    Icon index + /icons gallery — All 199 agent and vendor marks resolved from each homepage's declared icons (apple-touch-icon, favicon) and GitHub org avatars — browseable and copyable at /icons, served as JSON at /api/v1/icons, and now rendered across cards and spec sheets via the curated index.

  • milestone

    Transports registry — the wires agents actually speak — New /transports section maps the channels and wire protocols agents communicate over: agent wire protocols (MCP, A2A, AGNTCY/SLIM, ANP, ACP, AG-UI, AITP), messaging channels (Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, email), remote access (SSH, mesh VPNs like Tailscale, HTTPS tunnels, webhooks), and realtime media (PSTN/SIP, WebRTC) — each with the cataloged systems that speak it, tagged only where documented. Exposed at /api/v1/transports and as a 'Speaks' row on every spec sheet.

  • milestone

    Learn section — four interactive guides — New /learn section with two interactive guides: the Autonomy Dial (five delegation levels from suggests to holds-a-job, each grounded in live catalog exemplars) Which agent do you need? (a three-question quiz scored against the live catalog), Same task, different anatomy (one task traced through CLI/cloud/IDE/voice/ops agent anatomies with capability-tagged steps), and Anatomy of an MCP call (a 7-step walkthrough of a tool invocation crossing the JSON-RPC boundary).

  • milestone

    Capability taxonomy, vendor pages, integration matrix — New atomic capability taxonomy — 28 tags (file editing, browser operation, MCP tools, agent payments, identity, sandbox runtimes…) applied across all 110 systems, filterable in the index and browsable at /capabilities. New /vendors section profiles all 89 vendors with portfolio spec sheets and curated head-to-heads. New /integrations section maps which external systems each agent connects to — GitHub, Slack, Salesforce, Twilio, MCP servers — with the tail of each matrix gated 80/20. /api/v1/systems now exposes capabilities and integrations per system.

  • milestone
