The list of AI agentsevery agent, one spec sheet

An AI IDE is a forked or purpose-built code editor whose primary interface is an AI agent: repo-aware chat, multi-file edits, and agent modes are first-class, not a plugin. Most are VS Code forks; some are native editors that add agent panels. Category guide →

CLI agents run in the shell against a local checkout. They read the repository, plan changes, edit files, execute commands and tests, and often commit — usually with tool protocols like MCP for extension. Category guide →

Cloud agents run in a vendor-hosted sandbox rather than on your machine. You hand them a task — an issue, a ticket, a prompt — and they return a pull request or a deployed change for human review. Category guide →

Bridges attach agents to tools, data, and channels — tool protocols (MCP), memory servers, and transport bindings that expose an agent through chat or voice. For agents talking to agents, see agent communication. Category guide →

Bridges connect agents to tools; this category connects agents to each other. It splits into open protocols for cross-vendor discovery and messaging (A2A, AGNTCY, ANP, NANDA) and multi-agent frameworks where a supervisor delegates work to specialists through handoffs (CrewAI, Microsoft Agent Framework, LangGraph, MetaGPT, CAMEL).

Agent services are purpose-built primitives whose customer is the agent (or its builder): ways to pay (x402, AP2, AgentCard, Skyfire), ways to authenticate (Keycard, Arcade, Scalekit), places to exist (AgentMail inboxes, E2B sandboxes, Browserbase browsers), and senses (Exa search, Mem0 memory). Where bridges give agents protocols, services give them accounts — metered, billable capabilities the agent can't synthesize. Category guide →

Personal agents are self-hosted assistant runtimes: one gateway or process that holds sessions, memory, tools, and skills, and meets you in the channels you already use — Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Signal, iMessage — alongside CLIs, TUIs, and web dashboards. They run on your hardware or your VPS, keep state on your machine, and delegate to repo-native coding agents when the task is code. Category guide →

AI employees are agents packaged as a job function — an SDR that prospects, a support rep that resolves tickets, a recruiter that screens candidates. They arrive with an identity, a role, and integrations into the systems that role touches (CRM, helpdesk, ATS, email, phone), and they're sold on seats or outcomes rather than editor features.

Ops agents sit inside the incident and security loop: they watch alerts, correlate telemetry, investigate pages, draft root-cause analyses, and propose or apply remediations. AI SREs handle production incidents; AI SOC analysts (Dropzone, Simbian) handle security queues. Category guide →

Computer-use agents operate software through its interface — a browser, a desktop, a remote session — by reading the screen or DOM and acting with clicks, keystrokes, and navigation. Some are hosted products that take a goal and return a result (ChatGPT Agent, Manus); others are open frameworks and APIs for building your own (Browser Use, Skyvern, Stagehand, Claude Computer Use).

Research agents take a question and return a structured, cited report — searching, reading, and synthesizing dozens of sources over minutes-long runs. Consumer 'deep research' modes live inside chat products (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity); enterprise analysts work over licensed or internal corpora (Hebbia, AlphaSense); academic tools ground in the literature (Elicit).

Voice agents handle real-time spoken conversations: inbound reception and support, outbound reminders and qualification, scheduling, intake, and surveys. The category is mostly developer platforms (Vapi, Retell, Bland, Deepgram, ElevenLabs Agents) that orchestrate speech-to-text, a model, and text-to-speech over telephony — plus no-code products (Synthflow) that ship a ready receptionist.
