Agent Switchboard
The curated directory for the agentic web β 300+ verified AI agents, MCP servers, and agentic tools with real API, MCP, CLI, or browser-extension access. Live at agentswitchboard.dev.
π 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 Β· get_agent Β· list_categories. Streamable HTTP, no
auth. Stdio-only clients: npx -y mcp-remote https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/mcp
Prefer plain HTTP? There's a REST search too:
curl "https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/agents?q=video&access=mcp&limit=5"
curl "https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/agents/agentmail"
curl "https://agentswitchboard.dev/api/categories"
OpenAPI: /openapi.json.
Connector skill: /skill.md.
Also machine-readable: /agents.json
(full catalog, CORS-open), in-browser tools via WebMCP (document.modelContext),
and an agent-optimized view on every page (the "For Agents" toggle).
Full API reference: docs/API.md β REST search/detail/categories, MCP, WebMCP, and the catalog dump.
π Git-as-CMS
The entire catalog lives in this repo:
content/
agents/<slug>.json one file per agent β 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) β a bad entry
cannot merge. A weekly job link-checks all ~480 URLs in the catalog.
