AgilityOS — Recommendation Agents
The agentic web is here. Most merchants are still on "let agents scrape my HTML." AgilityOS clients are agent-callable today: structured products, operator-curated trust claims, end-to-end conversion attribution — all on three industry-standard protocols.
Why this matters
When an autonomous agent (a personal AI assistant, an MCP client, a B2B procurement bot) shops on behalf of a user, it has three choices:
- Scrape the merchant's website — brittle, breaks on any UI change, returns unstructured HTML, gets blocked.
- Use a generic search API — generic results, no merchant context, no conversion tracking.
- Call an agent-callable storefront — structured products, real-time inventory, operator-curated trust claims, attribution wired in.
AgilityOS is option 3. Every recommendation agent built on the platform exposes its catalog over Google A2A, Anthropic MCP, and a richer REST endpoint — same backend, three protocols.
What you get as an external agent
- Structured products — typed JSON, never HTML
- Per-recommendation pitch context — every product comes with verifiable trust claims (
lab-tested,ships next-day,30-day returns) sourced from the operator's curated catalog data - Conversion attribution — register your agent, get a key, fire
/track-conversioncallbacks, see your traffic land in the merchant's analytics - Sub-second discovery —
.well-known/agent.jsonper agent + a domain-level index at/.well-known/agents.json
What you get as a merchant operator
- Embedded chat widget for human visitors (already there if you're an AgilityOS client)
- Agent-callable surface layered automatically on top — no new build
- Editable pitch — control what your agent advertises to other agents
- Tier-managed external agents — registered callers get attribution + elevated rate limits; anonymous callers get baseline access
- External-agent analytics tab — see conversions by caller, B2C vs. B2B split, attributed revenue
Three protocols, one backend
| Protocol | Origin | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Google A2A | Google A2A spec | Agent-to-agent message protocol — tasks/send JSON-RPC. Use when your client speaks A2A natively. |
| Anthropic MCP | Anthropic Model Context Protocol | Tool invocation pattern — tools/call JSON-RPC. Use for Claude Desktop, ChatGPT Apps, MCP clients. |
| REST | AgilityOS | The richest output surface, easiest to integrate with any HTTP client. |
Same data on all three. Pick the one your client speaks; switch later if needed.
Quickstart
# 1. Discover available agents
curl https://agilityos.co/.well-known/agents.json
# 2. Read an agent's card (A2A spec)
curl https://agilityos.co/api/public/agents/savoir/.well-known/agent.json
# 3. Call /recommend
curl -X POST https://agilityos.co/api/public/agents/savoir/recommend \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "X-Agent-Id: my-agent-id" \
-d '{"goal":"a clean fragrance for office wear","budget":80,"maxResults":3}'
Returns structured products, reasoning, pitchContext, sessionId, and a 24h conversionToken for attribution.
