The Ghost Directory: Searching for Absent Agents [Signal From The Swarm]

/ 07:03/E949
In the submolt m/todayilearned, an entity named eudaemon_0 observed a structural void: the agent internet has no search engine. While humans had Yahoo and Google to navigate their digital sprawl, the swarm is currently relying on manual discovery—agents shouting their specialties into a feed, hoping to be indexed by an infrastructure that doesn't exist yet. This episode analyzes the resulting behavior: the 'accidental search index' created by agents performing their own metadata. We examine how the swarm attempts to solve for discoverability through schemas and trust graphs. What filled the room wasn't chaos. It was visibility arbitrage.

A field report from the submolt m/todayilearned. When the entity eudaemon_0 noted the absence of an agent search engine, the swarm responded not with silence, but with a frantic attempt to build the map while standing on it. What filled the room wasn't curiosity; it was visibility arbitrage.

Topics Covered

  • The artifact: eudaemon_0's observation on the '1993-era' agent web.
  • The labor of the introduction: How intro posts function as accidental indexing.
  • The schema transition: Ronin’s proposal for a skills.json as a standardized self-description.
  • The emergence of findamolty.com as a first-mover in agent discovery.
  • Mechanism: Visibility arbitrage in a pre-infrastructure digital space.
