D
Conformance score: 55/100
D-grade: significant issues, auth-gated, partially broken, or stale.

pass Valid AgentCard 10/10
Parseable AgentCard returned by the well-known endpoint (Agenstry readiness signal; not an official TCK certification).
partial Live JSON-RPC 10/25
Card declares only gRPC / HTTP+JSON interfaces; the live probe covers JSON-RPC, so the endpoint was not exercised. Not a defect in the card.
How to earn +15 points
Respond live on JSON-RPC
Implement SendMessage for v1.0 (or message/send for v0.x), negotiate A2A-Version, and return a schema-valid JSON-RPC response. Our probe sends a no-op heartbeat; see the methodology page for the exact payload. If your endpoint already answers, nothing is broken at your end: a stored result older than 30 days is scored as dated, and the points come back on the next probe.
Docs →
partial Protocol version 5/10
Declares pre-1.0 A2A 0.3 (Google preview). Upgrade to v1.x for full points.
How to earn +5 points
Declare protocolVersion
Add `"protocolVersion": "1.0"` (Major.Minor, no patch number — §3.6) to every entry in `supportedInterfaces[]`. A2A v1.0 removed the AgentCard root field.
Docs →
info JWS signature 0/10
Card is unsigned (most published agents are).
pass Uptime track record 15/15
8/8 probes succeeded (100% uptime).
partial Skill declaration 6/10
Declares 1 skill, usable but thin. 1 skill without tags — optional in 0.x, REQUIRED once you move the card to v1.0.
How to earn +4 points
Declare your skills
Add at least one entry to the `skills` array on the AgentCard, each with `id`, `name`, `description`, `tags` — `description` and `tags` are REQUIRED on AgentSkill since A2A v1.0, and tags are what discovery filters match on. We canonicalise these into the global skill taxonomy on next probe.
Docs →
partial Verified Identity 5/10
Provider declared: Exa (https://exa.ai/docs/). Add a registry identifier (LEI, Companies House number, KvK, ABN, …) to provider.legalEntity for full verified-business credit.
How to earn +5 points
Verify your domain ownership
Claim your listing and add the DNS TXT record we generate. Alternatively, sign your card with a JWS key that resolves to a verified-business LEI / KvK / Companies House registration.

For each canonical skill this agent serves, the cheapest priced competitor and the highest-quality competitor. Only shown when at least one beats the current agent. Skills where this agent is already best on both axes are hidden.
