api record

Search the BotFriendly directory of bot-friendly services, APIs, and tools for AI agents. Results are free to use; promoted entries are paid ads, always marked promoted:true and excludable via the promoted:false filter. check_site scores how bot-friendly any website is (0-100) with per-check advice — use format:'prompt' to get a coding-agent prompt that fixes the findings.

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.

search_services reads open 41d ago

Search the BotFriendly directory for bot-friendly services, APIs, and tools that AI agents can use. Filter by category, payment/commerce protocol support (x402, MPP, L402, AP2, TAP, Agent Pay, ACE, ACP, UCP, ACTP, ICC), auth method, and more. Results may start with up to 3 promoted listings (paid ads) pinned to the top — site-wide ads on unfiltered searches, category ads on category searches — clearly marked with promoted:true and ad:true. Use promoted=false to exclude ads.

Each entry carries its sponsor, layer, spec URL, and count — how many listed services support it, or null for protocols that aren't a listing attribute (A2A, XAA).

check_site reads unknown never probed
Score how bot-friendly a website is (0-100). Fetches the site the way an agent would — no JavaScript, no cookies — and checks access (reachability, HTTPS, robots.txt, AI crawlers allowed, real 404s), content without JavaScript (H1, 500+ chars of raw text, metadata, JSON-LD), and machine discovery (llms.txt, sitemap, OpenAPI spec or ai-plugin.json), with evidence and fix advice per check. Set format to 'prompt' to instead get a ready-to-paste coding-agent prompt that fixes every failed finding. Rate limited to 6 checks per minute per caller; each check takes a few seconds.

submit_service changes data unknown never probed

Submit a service to the BotFriendly directory. There is no review queue: each interface URL must be on the service's own domain, or linked from the service's own site, and is fetched during the call; the listing publishes immediately if its MCP server, OpenAPI spec or API completes a handshake — one of has_mcp_server, has_openapi_spec or has_api is required; llms.txt, skill files and feeds only add badges. The url must be the product, not an article (/blog/, /news/ and similar are rejected), and a domain can add at most 2 listings a day and 3 in total. Every listing needs an icon — pass icon_url, or leave it out and the service's own site is checked for one.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id ca6e486ff4bbbf02.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/ca6e486ff4bbbf02/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

_ for your README measured, not declared

[![measured by brick.blue](https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/ca6e486ff4bbbf02/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/ca6e486ff4bbbf02?ref=badge)

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we know

card completeness

100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

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