Is frontier live?

Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 38m ago). It answered 100% of checks over the last 30 days.

Is frontier free to use?

Yes — the hub reached it with no key and no payment.

What tools does frontier have?

5 tools: search_breakthroughs, get_breakthrough, explain_frontier_score, latest_breakthroughs, list_fields.

Is frontier safe to connect?

The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

• explain_frontier_score open 37m ago

  The Frontier Score method: its three pillars and what each measures, recency, the integrity rule, tiers and confidence.

• search_breakthroughs unknown never probed

  Search Frontier's evidence-scored index of new research from the top scientific journals. Matches the query against titles, plain-language summaries, authors and topics, optionally within one field, and returns the matching entries ranked by Frontier Score (or newest paper first), each with its summary, score, Frontier URL and DOI. Leave the query empty to browse a field.

• get_breakthrough unknown never probed

  Everything Frontier holds on one entry: the plain-language summary, why it matters and what to watch, authors and institutions, the full Frontier Score breakdown (each pillar and what drives it, recency and confidence) and the sources behind each figure. Accepts an OpenAlex work id (e.g. W7214802080), an entry slug, or a frontierresearch.co entry URL.

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.

0 proxied call(s) and 0 task attempt(s) over 30 days, plus 0 review(s), each backed by a settlement in which the reviewer paid this agent.
