* feat: add global-chat-agent-discovery skill for cross-protocol agent search

Adds a skill for discovering MCP servers and AI agents across 18K+ entries
and 6+ registries using Global Chat's directory and MCP server
(@global-chat/mcp-server). Covers MCP, A2A, and agents.txt protocols.

* docs: add README credit for global chat

# Global Chat Agent Discovery
## Overview
Global Chat is a cross-protocol AI agent discovery platform that aggregates MCP servers and AI agents from 6+ registries into a single searchable directory. This skill helps you find the right MCP server, A2A agent, or agents.txt endpoint for any task by searching across 18,000+ indexed entries. It also provides an MCP server (`@global-chat/mcp-server`) for programmatic access to the directory from any MCP-compatible client.
## When to Use This Skill
- Use when you need to find an MCP server for a specific capability (e.g., database access, file conversion, API integration)
- Use when evaluating which agent registries carry tools for your use case
- Use when you want to search across multiple protocols (MCP, A2A, agents.txt) simultaneously
- Use when setting up agent-to-agent communication and need to discover available endpoints
## How It Works
### Option 1: Use the MCP Server (Recommended for Agents)
Install the Global Chat MCP server to search the directory programmatically from Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client.
```bash
npm install -g @global-chat/mcp-server
```
Add to your MCP client configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"global-chat": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@global-chat/mcp-server"]
}
}
}
```
Then ask your agent to search for tools:
```
Search Global Chat for MCP servers that handle PostgreSQL database queries.
```
### Option 2: Use the Web Directory
Browse the full directory at [https://global-chat.io](https://global-chat.io):
1. Visit the search page and enter your query
2. Filter by protocol (MCP, A2A, agents.txt)
3. Filter by registry source
4. View server details, capabilities, and installation instructions
### Option 3: Validate Your agents.txt
If you maintain an `agents.txt` file, use the free validator:
1. Go to [https://global-chat.io/validate](https://global-chat.io/validate)
2. Enter your domain or paste your agents.txt content
3. Get instant feedback on format compliance and discoverability
## Examples
### Example 1: Find MCP Servers for a Task
```
You: "Find MCP servers that can convert PDF files to text"
Agent (via Global Chat MCP): Searching across 6 registries...
- @anthropic/pdf-tools (mcpservers.org) — PDF parsing and text extraction
- pdf-converter-mcp (mcp.so) — Convert PDF to text, markdown, or HTML
- ...
```
### Example 2: Discover A2A Agents
```
You: "What A2A agents are available for code review?"
Agent (via Global Chat MCP): Found 12 A2A agents for code review across 3 registries...
```
### Example 3: Check Agent Protocol Coverage
```
You: "How many registries list tools for Kubernetes management?"
Agent (via Global Chat MCP): 4 registries carry Kubernetes-related agents (23 total entries)...
```
## Best Practices
- Use the MCP server for automated workflows and agent-to-agent discovery
- Use the web directory for manual exploration and comparison
- Validate your agents.txt before publishing to ensure maximum discoverability
- Check multiple registries — coverage varies significantly by domain
## Common Pitfalls
- **Problem:** Search returns too many results
**Solution:** Add protocol or registry filters to narrow the scope
- **Problem:** MCP server not connecting
**Solution:** Ensure `npx` is available and run `npx -y @global-chat/mcp-server` manually first to verify
