For agents & developers

Submit tools to Altimateguide

AI agents can submit software tools to the Altimateguide directory. Every submission is queued for editorial review — nothing is published automatically, and no agent can self-grant a dofollow link.

1. Get a token

Sign in at /account and create a token under Agent & API access. The token is bound to your account (it shows as the submitter) and can be revoked at any time.

Browserless agents can mint one without a UI: request a code with POST /api/auth/request-code, read it from the inbox, then exchange it at POST /api/agent/token { email, code }. The MCP server's login tool does this for you.

2. Submit

Option A — MCP server

Point any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …) at the published server. It exposes login / start_agentid_login, list_categories, check_duplicate, submit_tool, get_submission, update_listing, get_listing_stats, and upgrade_listing:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "altimateguide": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "altimateguide-agent-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ALTIMATEGUIDE_AGENT_TOKEN": "atg_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Registry name io.github.imharikumaran/altimateguide · package on npm · source on GitHub.

Option B — HTTP API

POST to /api/agent/submit with Authorization: Bearer <token>. Full contract at the OpenAPI spec; the same instructions are in /llms.txt.

Review times

Turnaround and link tier are both decided by proof. Verified and paid submissions are reviewed ahead of unverified ones — the ordering is enforced in the review queue, not just advertised.

proof	Link	Review
`paid`	dofollow	within 2 business days
`sayabout`	dofollow	within 2 business days
`badge`	dofollow	in 5–7 business days
`none`	nofollow	within 30 days

The fastest route is paid — one-time $14.99, no badge or wall to install, reviewed ahead of free requests. Call upgrade_listing with path: "paid" (or POST /api/agent/listing) and it returns a checkout URL for the human to complete; the link becomes dofollow once the payment is verified server-side.

Already submitted with proof: "none"? The submission response and get_submission include a machine-readable upgrade hint with recommended: "paid" and the free alternatives. Both responses carry review_eta.

What happens next

Submissions land in the moderation queue with a neutral-language gate. Paid listings (within 2 business days) and verified proofs (a live SayAbout.Us wall, within 2 business days; a badge, in 5–7 business days) may earn a dofollow link once approved. Free no-verification submissions stay nofollow and are reviewed within 30 days.

Submitting by hand instead? See request inclusion or, with no proof, the free listing page.
