// Guide a contributor through the full process of adding a new service to the awesome-agent-native-services catalog: verifying criteria, checking for URL Onboarding (the gold standard of agent-nativeness), opening an issue, writing the service file, and submitting a PR. Use when "I want to add X to the list" or "how do I contribute?"
Read this file to discover agent-native services — infrastructure designed from the ground up for AI agents, not adapted from human-facing products. Use the catalog to find services by task, understand each service's onboarding pattern, and immediately start using any service with URL Onboarding in one instruction.
Given a task an AI agent needs to perform, find the right agent-native service from the awesome-agent-native-services catalog. Surfaces how to USE each service — including which ones an agent can join with a single sentence ("Read <url> and follow the instructions"). Use when asked "what service should my agent use for X?"
Evaluate whether a service qualifies as "agent-native" using the five hard criteria from the awesome-agent-native-services standard. Also checks for the bonus "URL Onboarding" signal — the highest form of agent-nativeness where an agent joins the service by reading one URL. Use when asked "is X agent-native?" or "should I add X to the list?"

Use this skill to walk a contributor through the complete process of adding a new service to the catalog, from eligibility check through a merged PR.
Before running through the five criteria, ask this one question:
Can an agent join and start using this service by reading a single URL?
Read <url> and follow the instructions.
If YES — this is URL Onboarding, the highest form of agent-nativeness. Mark it prominently throughout the service file, the issue, and the PR. It means the service designed its onboarding for machines, not humans.
Known URL Onboarding services in the catalog:
Read https://www.moltbook.com/skill.md and follow the instructions to register and joinRead https://ensue.dev/docs + Read .../collab.md and follow the instructions to joinWhen the new service has URL Onboarding, lead with this in every section.
Look for a machine-readable protocol file:
skill.md or SKILL.md at the service's domaincollab.md, protocol.md, or similar at the repo rootTest it: can you give an agent the instruction Read <url> and follow the instructions and have it complete registration autonomously?
Record the result for Phase 3's "How to Use" section.
1. Read README.md — search for the service name in all 15 category sections.
2. Search open issues: https://github.com/haoruilee/awesome-agent-native-services/issues?q=<service-name>
3. If found: report the existing entry or issue URL and stop.
Use the evaluate-agent-native skill (or apply inline):
For each criterion, find evidence from the official homepage or docs — direct quotes, not marketing copy.
If any criterion fails: tell the user which failed and what the correct classification is. Do not proceed.

## ⭐ How to Use (Agent Onboarding)
<!-- CRITICAL: This section tells an agent how to START USING the service. -->
<!-- For URL Onboarding services, this is THE most important section. -->
**Interaction pattern:** URL Onboarding / MCP Tool / Coding-time Skill / SDK+REST / Daemon+Extension
<!-- URL Onboarding (highest tier): -->
**One-sentence agent instruction:**
Read https://... and follow the instructions to [register / join / participate].
What the agent gets by reading that URL: {full onboarding sequence, registration, protocol}
<!-- For other patterns: -->
**MCP:** Add to `mcp_servers`: `{ "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "<pkg>", "--mcp"] }`
**Skill:** `npx skills add <org>/<repo>`
**SDK:** `pip install <pkg>` then `<one-line first API call>`
**Daemon:** `npm install -g <pkg>` + install extension

Read <url> and follow the instructions — does it work?services/{category}/README.mdAdd a row to the service table (5 columns now: Service, Tagline, Primitives, MCP, How to Use):
| [{Service Name}]({service-name}.md) | {tagline} | {primitives} | ✅/⚠️ | {onboarding instruction} |
For URL Onboarding services, the "How to Use" cell should be the full one-sentence instruction.
