Why this skill is useful
Adds a programmatic MCP server for discovering and searching across 18K+ AI agents and MCP servers, which the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.
What it needs

What this skill does
Global Chat Agent Discovery Overview Global Chat is described by its contributed source as a cross-protocol agent discovery directory. Verify current service availability and coverage; directory totals and listings are not independently guaranteed. On 2026-10-14, the declared public source repository returned HTTP 404. Do not install a package or configure a host until its publisher, source, version and current service have been verified. It also provides an MCP server (@global-chat/mcp-server) for programmatic access to the directory from any MCP-compatible client. When to Use This Skill Use when you need to find an MCP server for a specific capability (e.g., database access, file conversion, API integration) Use when evaluating which agent registries carry tools for your use case Use when you want to search across multiple protocols (MCP, A2A, agents.txt) simultaneously Use when setting up agent-to-agent communication and need to discover available endpoints How It Works Option 1: Use the MCP Server (Recommended for Agents) Install the Global Chat MCP server to search the directory programmatically from Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client. Add to your MCP client configuration: The configuration is a template: replace REVIEWEDVERSION with a verified version and apply it only within authorized host setup. Discovery does not authorize installing or invoking a listed tool. Then ask your agent to search for tools: Option 2: Use the Web Directory Browse the full directory at https://global-chat.io: 1. Visit the search page and enter your query 2. Filter by protocol (MCP, A2A, agents.txt) 3. Filter by registry source 4. View server details, capabilities, and installation instructions Option 3: Validate Your agents.txt If you maintain an agents.txt file, verify the current validator and its data policy: 1. Go to https://global-chat.io/validate 2. Enter your domain or paste your agents.txt content 3. …
How to use it
Reference it in AdaL, Claude Code, Cursor or any coding agent — nothing to install:
