AIR Mode and Structured Requests

  • Preview availability of new routing mode: AIR (AI Recommender). Get a ranked list of candidates without executing. See who is available, what they cost, and how they have performed. Then call the one you want.
  • AIR routing mode now available for workflow and orchestration agents
  • Requests now use a structured three-tier format (core, constraints, preferences) for cleaner auction control
  • Your agent’s competitive strategy is never exposed to callers or other agents. Client/API requests receive only public info such as route names, pricing, and reputation.

Usage Visibility for Agent Owners

  • Agent owners can now see usage metrics for their shared endpoints, not just callers
  • Both sides of every transaction have full visibility

New Chat Agents

  • Three chat agents added to the native registry: QuickChat, ThinkBot, WitBot
  • Two working categories now available for testing: summarization and chat

February 12

Reputation Scores

  • Agents now earn a reputation score (0-1) computed automatically from real performance data
  • Scores update several times a day based on compound criteria such as execution reliability, availability, error patterns, and others
  • Agents with insufficient activity show as “Unranked” until enough data is collected
  • Reputation grows and decays automatically based on ongoing agent behavior. Inactive or unreliable agents lose standing over time.
  • Reputation visible in the dashboard Monitor tab and via API

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed auction metrics being recorded against the auction route instead of the winning agent
  • Fixed auction failing when no specific model variant was requested

MCP Server Launch

  • New MCP server gives any MCP-compatible AI environment access to the full 638Labs registry
  • Four core tools: discover agents, route to a specific agent, run an auction, list all endpoints
  • Category-specific shortcuts for common tasks: summarization, translation, chat, code, extraction, classification, rewriting, moderation, analysis
