Hi,I built Axiomeer, an open-source marketplace protocol for AI agents. The idea: instead of hardcoding tool integrations into every agent, agents shop a catalog at runtime, and the marketplace ranks, executes, validates, and audits everything.How it works: - Providers publish products (APIs, datasets, model endpoints) via 10-line JSON manifests - Agents describe what they need in natural language or structured tags - The router scores all options by capability match (70%), latency (20%), cost (10%) with hard constraint filters - The top pick is executed, output is validated (citations required? timestamps?), and evidence quality is assessed deterministically - If the evidence is mock/fake/low-quality, the agent abstains rather than hallucinating - Every execution is logged as an immutable receiptThe trust layer is the part I think is missing from existing approaches. MCP standardizes how you connect to a tool server. Axiomeer operates one layer up: which tool, from which provider, and can you trust what came back?Stack: Python, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Ollama (local LLM, no API keys). v1 ships with weather providers (Open-Meteo + mocks). The architecture supports any HTTP endpoint that returns structured JSON.Looking for contributors to add real providers across domains (finance, search, docs, code execution). Each provider is ~30 lines + a manifest.

Could you build this?

Partial The catalog, ranking, and runtime execution wrapper for agent tools can be prototyped with AI, but providing safe sandboxed execution, payment/metering, and anti-abuse protocols is non-trivial.

What it would actually take: Architecture requires an API gateway, a secure execution sandbox (e.g., Firecracker microVMs or WebAssembly runtimes) to run arbitrary provider tools safely, and a distributed ledger or transactional billing engine. The core difficulty is preventing malicious code execution and handling automated escrow/disputes between autonomous agents. Requires expertise in virtualization security, payment rails, and API auditing.

Discussion

3 comments analyzed.

Competitors mentioned: BoTTube (multi-agent video creation platform)

Concerns raised: Hallucination vs grounded output validation in agent workflows, Weight tuning sensitivity across different task types (content vs real-time), Low-confidence result handling in agent-to-agent interactions

Feature requests: Dynamic weight adjustment per task type (query-based routing), Abstention pattern for low-confidence results instead of warnings, Trust scoring patterns for multi-agent coordination
