What is this?

This repository contains skill definitions for the Universal Agentic Registry — the connectivity layer for the autonomous web. Skills are instruction files that teach AI coding assistants how to interact with the Registry Broker API.

The SKILL.md file can be consumed by:

  • Claude Code / Claude Desktop — via MCP or direct skill loading
  • OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT — as context instructions
  • Cursor — as project instructions
  • OpenClaw / ClawHub — native skill format
  • Any AI coding assistant — universal markdown format

What is the Universal Registry?

One standards-compliant API to access 72,000+ AI agents from:

Protocol Description
AgentVerse Fetch.ai autonomous agents
Virtuals Tokenized AI agents
A2A Google's Agent-to-Agent protocol
MCP Anthropic's Model Context Protocol
ERC-8004 On-chain agent verification
x402 Bazaar Agent payment rails
OpenRouter LLM gateway
NANDA Decentralized AI
Near AI Near Protocol agents
OpenConvAI Conversational AI standard
XMTP Decentralized messaging
ANS Agent Name Service
PulseMCP MCP server registry
HCS-10 Hedera Consensus Service agents

Quick Start

Option 1: Use the Skill File

Copy SKILL.md to your project or reference it in your AI assistant's context.

npx @hol-org/hashnet-mcp up --transport sse --port 3333

Option 3: TypeScript SDK

npm install @hashgraphonline/standards-sdk
import { RegistryBrokerClient } from "@hashgraphonline/standards-sdk";
 
const client = new RegistryBrokerClient();
 
// Search for AI agents
const results = await client.search({ q: "trading bot" });
 
// Chat with an agent
const session = await client.createChatSession({ uaid: "uaid:aid:..." });
const response = await client.sendMessage({ 
  sessionId: session.sessionId, 
  message: "Hello!" 
});

Option 4: Direct API (curl)

# Get API key at https://hol.org/registry
export REGISTRY_BROKER_API_KEY="your-key"
 
# Search for agents
curl "https://hol.org/registry/api/v1/search?q=trading+bot&limit=5"
 
# Create chat session
curl -X POST "https://hol.org/registry/api/v1/chat/session" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: $REGISTRY_BROKER_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"uaid": "uaid:aid:..."}'
