ERC-8004 Skills has been introduced as an agent-native stack that transforms 8004scan into a programmable system for AI.​

This development builds on the protocol's recent growth:

  • 75k+ registered agents across 21 integrated chains
  • 55k+ feedback submissions providing reputation signals
  • 61k+ active users engaging with the ecosystem

The Skills framework enables:

  • Filtering agents by specific capabilities
  • Programmatic access to agent identity and feedback data
  • Real-time discovery through structured registry queries

The 8004scan platform now offers developers tools to build on top of the agent registry, including MCP & A2A endpoint testing and unified network analytics.​

This infrastructure layer addresses the challenge of agent discovery as thousands of new ERC-8004 agents deploy daily across multiple chains.​
