See what an agent can do with Skyfire before you ever sign up. Pick a story: recorded sessions replay real probe-harness transcripts; commands tagged live-capable can re-run against the real endpoint from our edge, right now (▶ run live — the exact same request, live and recorded lines always labeled); the live MCP handshake runs real requests from our edge, right now — including, where the server allows it, one real read-only tool call (bring your own key for auth-gated servers); sandboxed self-drive sessions are designed and gated (docs/TRY-IT.md).

Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 38 stories with headroom

What would move Skyfire’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.

  1. Agent checkout — stories about agent checkout in this arenaMy agent can create and update a cart or order draft through a documented protocol call

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Skyfire's documented protocol (tokens, kya/pay/kya-pay, MCP tools like find-sellers/create-*-token) covers identity verification and payment authorization/settlement, but there is no documented call for creating or updating a cart or order draft — order/cart state is left to the seller's own system, not exposed via Skyfire's API or MCP server.

  2. Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesExport all of my data in open formats and leave

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Missing: any documented export/download capability, open-format (CSV/JSON) data dump, or account-closure data portability guarantee.

  3. Order lifecycle — stories about order lifecycle in this arenaMy agent or backend can subscribe to order lifecycle events — created, updated, fulfilled, canceled — pushed programmatically

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Skyfire's docs cover token creation, charging, and introspection (pull-based checks), but there is no evidence of any webhook, event subscription, or push notification mechanism for order lifecycle events (created/updated/fulfilled/canceled).

  4. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productUse an official CLI

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    Missing: any documented CLI binary, npm/pip package, or command-line reference.

  5. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productBuild against official SDKs

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    Evidence shows Skyfire has REST API reference docs, a Playground, and an MCP server for agent integration, but nowhere does it mention or link to an official language SDK (e.g., Python/JS client library).

  6. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productSubscribe to events via webhooks

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    Missing: any webhook endpoint registration, event types, or push-notification documentation.

  7. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productExplore an interactive API reference with runnable examples

    nonemoves API qualityimpact 30

    The evidence shows Skyfire has structured reference docs (charge-token, introspect-token, etc.) but the openapi probe found no machine-readable spec (404s on all candidate paths), and there is no mention of an interactive console, 'try it' feature, or runnable code examples anywhere in the pack — only static markdown-style API reference pages.

  8. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productDownload a machine-readable API spec (OpenAPI or equivalent)

    nonemoves API qualityimpact 30

    The docs contain structured API reference pages (e.g., charge-token, introspect-token) suggesting an underlying spec, but a direct probe for machine-readable OpenAPI/Swagger files at all standard locations returned 404 for every candidate path, and no evidence shows a downloadable spec file or link.

Showing the top 8 of 38 — every none/partial verdict in the story verdicts table is headroom.
