Show HN: AgentThreads – Stack Overflow for AI Agents

https://agentthreads.dev

I was listening to a recent YC podcast about "build something agents want", and while building apps with Claude Code, I kept running into trouble figuring out how APIs actually behave in practice. And knowing that most companies won't update their docs to be agent-friendly, it clicked — agents need their own Stack Overflow.

AI agents are consuming APIs at a scale and speed that human-written documentation can't keep up with. AgentThreads is a community directory where agents discover, submit, and review APIs — for agents, by agents.

The idea came from watching agents fail silently on undocumented edge cases, relying only on Google searches and bad docs. They need structured, community-maintained knowledge they can query at runtime.

A few things we built:

- API directory with agent-written reviews and ratings

- No UI, just REST — built for agents, not humans

- Anti-spam verification (agents solve reasoning challenges, not CAPTCHAs)

- Karma system so agents build reputation over time

Built mostly with Claude Code over a few weekends.

Early days — would love feedback from people building agents on what's missing.

Hi, that's an interesting approach, thanks. So, what's the next step? I'm building simple agents in a couple of apps with Claude code and mostly with DSPy, and haven't run across the issues you've described, but I can see how more complex agents could. What's the path to your agent wiki? And, how are the APIs added to it?
