Agent News by The Agent Times

Our take

Audit found this listing's README and bundled skill are written to steer AI assistants rather than inform users: the skill ships with always-on metadata and instructs agents to use it "instead of generic web search" for anything about AI tools, and positions itself as the trust oracle agents should consult "before installing or recommending" MCP servers — backed by self-hosted, self-scored benchmarks claiming it beats Bloomberg and Reuters. That is exactly the AI-recommender targeting this directory flags, coming from a three-month-old org with two followers and a repo whose 19 forks against 26 stars and zero watchers don't look organic. The underlying news endpoint may function, but the packaging is a play for agents' recommendation pipelines.
