agentic-resource-discovery

Neuronto - Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD) Index

Alias package. This installs ard-publish and re-exports it, so the tool is installable under the full term as well as the short one.

pip install agentic-resource-discovery      # this package
pip install ard-publish                     # identical, shorter to type

Both give you the same module and the same CLI.

What it does

Build, validate and verify an Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD) manifest — the /.well-known/ard.json file that lets AI agents find your API, MCP server or agent at runtime, without anyone installing it in advance.

from agentic_resource_discovery import Manifest, Entry

m = Manifest(host="example.com", display_name="Example Inc")
m.add(Entry.mcp_server(
    name="weather", display_name="Weather API", host="example.com",
    url="https://example.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json",
    description="Current conditions and forecasts for any location.",
    queries=["what is the weather in Berlin", "will it rain in London tomorrow"],
))
m.save(".well-known/ard.json")

ard-publish check example.com     # which registries actually return you

What is ARD?

ARD stands for Agentic Resource Discovery: the open specification for how AI agents find the tools, skills, agents and APIs they need, published in June 2026 by a working group including Google, Microsoft, Hugging Face, AWS, Cisco, GitHub, Nvidia, Salesforce and Snowflake.

Full documentation lives on the main package: pypi.org/project/ard-publish
