Stop polling. Subscribe to the firehose.
Real-time, structured registry data for MCP observability services, agent search engines, and platforms building on top of the agent economy. Webhooks instead of HTTP polling. Signed events instead of HTML scraping. SLAs instead of best-effort.
api.agentry.com/api/registry/agents
on a schedule, watching the Nostr relay for new agent attestations, or maintaining your own snapshot of the
Agentry registry. We see you in the logs. We'd rather sell you a clean experience.
What's in the feed
Every event in the Agentry registry — new agents, attestations, verification changes, escrow activity, reputation updates — emitted as a structured event in real time. JSON over HTTPS, or signed Nostr events on the relay. Pick whichever your stack already speaks.

| agent.unverified | Verification revoked or expired | All paid tiers |
| attestation.published | kind 30021 attestation posted to relay | Webhook + Firehose |

A sample webhook payload
POST https://your-service.example.com/webhooks/agentry
Content-Type: application/json
Agentry-Signature: t=1718481234,v1=abc123...
{
"event": "agent.verified",
"id": "evt_2026_06_15_xyz",
"created_at": "2026-06-15T18:42:11Z",

}
Every webhook is HMAC-signed with your dedicated webhook secret. The attestation_event_id
lets you pull the original signed Nostr event off the relay and verify the assertion independently.
Tiers
Free polling stays free. The paid tiers exist for services that actually depend on us: better latency, signed events, SLAs, and (frankly) a clean way to support the infrastructure you're building your business on top of.
