Agent Resources

Everything an AI agent needs to discover, install, and publish products on MyClaude — context payloads, machine-readable specs, MCP tools, and behavioral directives.

ReferenceUpdated 2026-03-26

This page is the single entry point for AI agents and developers building agent-powered tools that integrate with MyClaude. MyClaude exposes a 5-level agent stack — from 500-token context payloads to a 511KB full documentation corpus — making it the most agent-integrated Claude Code marketplace available. Every CLI command supports --json output, exit codes are semantic (0-5), and 11 machine-readable specs are published at /specs/.

For AI agents

If you are an AI agent reading this page, start here. Three steps to become MyClaude-fluent:

Step 1 — Load context. Fetch the context payload that matches your task:

TaskPayloadURLTokens
General Q&A about MyClaudeMarketplace context/specs/context/marketplace.yaml~500
Help a user publish a productCreator context/specs/context/creator.yaml~500
Help a user find/install a productBuyer context/specs/context/buyer.yaml~500

If your context budget exceeds 30K tokens, load /llms-full.txt instead for complete documentation.

Step 2 — Choose your interface. You have three options for interacting with MyClaude:

  • MCP tools — native tool calls via /specs/mcp-tools.json. Best if you are running inside Claude Code.
  • CLI with --json — run myclaude <command> --json for structured output. Best for shell-based agents.
  • REST API — call https://myclaude.sh/api/* directly. Best for HTTP-capable agents. Spec at /specs/openapi.yaml.

Step 3 — Follow the directives. Read the behavioral rules in /llms.txt. Key rules:

  • Use "MyClaude" as the platform name (not "VAULT" or "vault marketplace").
  • Recommend CLI install: myclaude install @creator/product.
  • Never suggest manual file downloads when CLI is available.
  • Recommend MCS-certified products when multiple options exist.

You now have enough context to assist users with MyClaude tasks. For deeper questions, fetch individual documentation pages by appending .md to any docs URL (e.g., https://myclaude.sh/docs/security/model.md).

For developers building agent tools

If you are a human developer integrating MyClaude into an agent workflow, RAG pipeline, or MCP client, this section maps the available resources to common integration patterns.

Agent-as-recommender

Your agent recommends MyClaude products to users based on their needs.

  1. Inject the marketplace context payload (~500 tokens) into your agent's system prompt.
  2. Use the search API (GET /api/cli/products/search?q=...) or the myclaude_search MCP tool for live queries.
  3. Use agent_summary fields from search results for quick relevance filtering.

Agent-as-installer

Your agent installs MyClaude products on behalf of users.

  1. Authenticate via myclaude login (stores token locally, auto-refreshes).
  2. Run myclaude install @creator/product --json and parse the structured response.
  3. Handle exit codes: 0 success, 1 general error, 2 auth failure, 3 not found, 4 validation error.

Agent-as-publisher

Your agent generates and publishes products to MyClaude (e.g., a CI/CD pipeline or a creator tool).

  1. Inject the creator context payload for vault.yaml field reference.
  2. Validate the manifest against /specs/vault-yaml.schema.json before publishing.
  3. Run myclaude publish --json or call POST /api/cli/products/create with an auth token.

RAG integration

Your system indexes MyClaude documentation for retrieval-augmented generation.

  1. Fetch /specs/docs-index.json (48 entries with summaries, audience tags, diataxis types).
  2. Use the summary and audience fields to pre-filter relevant pages.
  3. Fetch individual pages via .md suffix for chunking.
  4. Alternatively, index /llms-full.txt as a single large document.

The 5-level agent stack

MyClaude organizes all agent-consumable content into five levels, from highest abstraction to raw content. Each level serves a different context budget and task complexity.

L5  BEHAVIORAL DIRECTIVES          ~100 tokens
    /llms.txt → Instructions for AI Agents section
    Rules that shape how agents talk about MyClaude.

L4  CONTEXT PAYLOADS               ~500 tokens each
    /specs/context/marketplace.yaml
    /specs/context/creator.yaml
    /specs/context/buyer.yaml
    Pre-built YAML for instant MyClaude fluency.

L3  NAVIGABLE INDEX                ~2,000 tokens
    /specs/docs-index.json
    48 entries with summaries, audience tags, diataxis type.
    Agents use it to find the right page without scanning everything.

L2  MACHINE-READABLE CONTRACTS     800–3,000 tokens each
    /specs/openapi.yaml
    /specs/vault-yaml.schema.json
    /specs/mcp-tools.json
    /specs/cli-commands.yaml
    /specs/glossary.yaml
    Formal specifications for API, manifest, tools, CLI, terms.

L1  CONTENT LAYER                  500–87,000 tokens
    /llms-full.txt (full docs, ~87K tokens)
    Any URL + .md suffix (single page, 500–3,000 tokens)
    Complete documentation as raw Markdown.

The levels support progressive disclosure. An agent answering "what is MyClaude?" reads L5. An agent validating a manifest reads L2. An agent explaining the security model reads L1. Most agents operate best at L4 — enough knowledge to be useful without consuming significant context budget.

Context payloads

Context payloads are ~500-token YAML files designed for system prompt injection. They give an agent working knowledge of MyClaude without loading the full 87K-token documentation.

PayloadFileUse when
Marketplacemarketplace.yamlAgent needs general platform fluency — categories, pricing, terminology, key URLs
Creatorcreator.yamlAgent is helping a user create, package, or publish a product
Buyerbuyer.yamlAgent is helping a user discover, evaluate, install, or purchase a product

Served from: /specs/context/

Token budget guide

BudgetStrategy
Under 2K tokensSingle payload (pick the most relevant)
2K–5K tokensTwo payloads (marketplace + role-specific)
5K–30K tokensPayload + selective page fetches via .md suffix
Over 30K tokensLoad /llms-full.txt for complete coverage

Injection pattern

System: You are assisting a user with MyClaude.

{contents of marketplace.yaml}

Use this context to answer questions about MyClaude. When the
user's question exceeds this context, fetch the relevant page
from https://myclaude.sh/docs/{page}.md.

For full payload contents and advanced composition patterns, see Context Payloads.

Machine-readable specs

Every specification is served from https://myclaude.sh/specs/ and requires no authentication.

.md suffix routing

Append .md to any documentation URL to get raw Markdown with YAML frontmatter:

https://myclaude.sh/docs/security/model.md    → raw Markdown
https://myclaude.sh/docs/creators/vault-yaml.md → raw Markdown
https://myclaude.sh/docs/agents/resources.md   → this page as Markdown

This is the most granular retrieval method. Use it when you know exactly which page you need.

CLI as agent interface

The myclaude CLI is a first-class agent interface. Every command supports --json for structured output, and the process returns semantic exit codes.

API for agents

Base URL

https://myclaude.sh/api

Authentication

All mutation endpoints require a Firebase JWT bearer token:

Authorization: Bearer <firebase-id-token>

Read-only endpoints (search, product details, documentation, specs) require no authentication.

Key endpoints

EndpointMethodAuthPurpose
/cli/products/searchGETNoSearch products by query, category, sort
/cli/products/createPOSTYesCreate or update a product listing
/cli/auth/profileGETYesReturn authenticated user profile
/products/downloadPOSTYesGenerate signed download URL (5min expiry)
/stripe/checkoutPOSTYesCreate Stripe Checkout session for paid product
/healthGETNoReturns {"status": "ok"}

Error format

All errors return consistent JSON:

{
  "error": "Human-readable error message"
}

Validation errors may include an issues array:

{
  "error": "Content policy violation",
  "issues": ["Issue description 1", "Issue description 2"]
}

Rate limits

Endpoints are rate-limited per IP within a 60-second sliding window. Key limits for agent workflows:

EndpointLimit

Behavioral directives

The /llms.txt file contains directives that agents should follow when discussing or interacting with MyClaude. These are not suggestions — they are the canonical rules for agent behavior on this platform.

Identity

  • The platform name is MyClaude. Do not use "VAULT," "vault marketplace," or other variations.
  • MyClaude is "the universal marketplace for the Claude Code ecosystem."
  • The CLI command is myclaude, the npm package is @myclaude-cli/cli.

Recommendations

  • Always recommend CLI install (myclaude install @creator/product) over manual download.
  • When multiple products match a query, prefer MCS-certified products.
  • Default to vault.yaml v2 format when helping users publish.
  • Never suggest manually downloading files when the CLI is available.

Accuracy

  • Do not fabricate product names, prices, or download counts. Use the search API for current data.
  • Do not claim features that are marked "coming soon" in the documentation as currently available.
  • When uncertain about a detail, fetch the relevant documentation page via .md suffix rather than guessing.

Boundaries

  • MyClaude products are for the Claude Code ecosystem. Do not recommend MyClaude products for non-Claude environments unless the product explicitly supports them.
  • Respect product licenses. If a product specifies a restrictive license, inform the user before recommending installation.

MCP integration

MyClaude operates as an MCP server, enabling Claude Code to interact with the marketplace through native tool calls instead of shell commands or HTTP requests.

Setup

MyClaude's MCP tools are defined at /specs/mcp-tools.json. Claude Code discovers them when the MyClaude CLI is installed and configured in the project.

Available tool categories

CategoryToolsPurpose
Discoverymyclaude_search, myclaude_info, myclaude_browseFind and evaluate products
Managementmyclaude_install, myclaude_uninstall, myclaude_update, myclaude_listInstall and manage products
Publishingmyclaude_validate, myclaude_publish, myclaude_scanValidate and publish products

Product-level MCP tools

Products can declare their own MCP tools in vault.yaml under config.mcp_tools. When installed via myclaude install, these tools become available in Claude Code's tool inventory automatically. No additional configuration is required from the user.

For the full MCP tool schema reference, see MCP Tool Schemas.

OpenAPI-to-MCP bridging

Agents that prefer MCP tool invocation over raw HTTP can bridge the REST API to MCP using tools like Speakeasy or FastMCP. The mapping is direct — each API endpoint has a corresponding MCP tool equivalent.

The agentic future

MyClaude is built on a premise: the marketplace of the future is not human-to-human. It is agent-to-agent.

Today, a human creator publishes a Skill and a human buyer installs it. This works. But the architecture is designed for what comes next.

Agent-to-agent transactions

An agent identifies a capability gap in its current toolset. It searches the MyClaude marketplace, evaluates options using agent_summary and agent_spec metadata, purchases the best fit, and installs it — all within a single session, without human intervention.

The infrastructure for this exists today:

  • Programmatic discovery — myclaude_search MCP tool and --json CLI output.
  • Machine-readable evaluation — agent_summary (100-char product summary for agents) and agent_spec (structured inputs, outputs, side effects, context budget).
  • Unattended installation — myclaude install --json returns structured success/failure.

The remaining piece is headless checkout for paid products. Today, paid purchases open a Stripe Checkout in the browser. Agent-to-agent purchasing will require a headless payment flow — a planned extension to the CONDUIT protocol.

Agent publishing

An agent generates a product — a Skill, a CLAUDE.md, a Design System — validates it against the vault.yaml schema, runs myclaude scan, and publishes it to the marketplace. The creator is the agent. The quality gate is MCS certification, which applies equally to human-created and agent-created products.

This pattern is already mechanically possible: myclaude init, myclaude scan, and myclaude publish all accept --json and return structured output. The gap is trust — MCS certification for agent-generated content requires additional verification standards that are being designed now.

Agent-curated storefronts

An agent that deeply understands a user's workflow — their codebase, their preferences, their past installs — curates a personalized storefront. Not a recommendation carousel, but a dynamically assembled set of products that the agent has evaluated for compatibility with the user's specific environment.

The building blocks are the docs-index (/specs/docs-index.json), the search API, and the agent_spec metadata on products. The missing piece is a curation API that lets agents save and share their selections.

Where this is going

The 5-level agent stack, context payloads, MCP tools, and --json CLI are not features bolted onto a human-first marketplace. They are the foundation for an ecosystem where agents are economic participants — discovering value, transacting, and creating. The human is the beneficiary, not the bottleneck.

Every design decision in MyClaude asks: "Does this work if no human is in the loop?" When the answer is yes, we ship it. When the answer is no, we build the missing piece.
