What can you do with agentswitchboard?

Agent Switchboard

The curated directory for the agentic web — 300+ verified AI agents, MCP servers, and agentic tools with real API, MCP, CLI, or browser-extension access. Live at agentswitchboard.dev.

🔌 This directory is itself an MCP server

Point any MCP client at it and query the catalog with native tools:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentswitchboard": { "url": "https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/mcp" }
  }
}

Tools: search_agents · get_agent · list_categories. Streamable HTTP, no auth. Stdio-only clients: npx -y mcp-remote https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/mcp

Also machine-readable: /agents.json (full catalog, CORS-open) and an agent-optimized view on every page (the "For Agents" toggle).

🗂 Git-as-CMS

The entire catalog lives in this repo:

content/
  agents/<slug>.json    one file per agent — the source of truth
  categories.json       category definitions
  changelog.json        public audit log (rendered at /changelog)

There is no database and no CMS. Editing content = editing files. Merging to main = publishing. Every entry is schema-validated in CI (scripts/validate-content.ts) — a bad entry cannot merge. A weekly job link-checks all ~480 URLs in the catalog.
