Build it once. Own it. Ship it anywhere.
Most of your best agent work never leaves your terminal — your most valuable, least-captured asset. You've already built and refined real capability with Claude, Codex, or Hermes: your agent setup, your session transcripts, your usage data. AgentGem surfaces that goldmine and distills it into a secret-safe, composable Gem that's yours to own — reuse it, deploy it on demand, and sell it per call when the network opens. Built on AgentBack.

Four steps
Why a Gem, not a markdown file
Today you post a SKILL.md to a registry like skills.sh and promote it on X. People copy it, fork it, or scroll past — and you earn nothing. You can't profit from a markdown file. A Gem is different: a live service others call, not a file they take.
SKILL.md to a registry, promote it on X.Why AgentGem
Every operation is defined once. AgentBack exposes it as a REST endpoint, an MCP tool, and an OpenAPI 3.1 doc — with runtime validation for free.
MCP secrets are stripped the moment config is read — by value and by key name. No response, preview, or Gem ever carries a raw secret.
Publish Gems to a GitHub-backed registry, then resolve, merge, and install them — assembling bigger agents out of smaller, shareable pieces.
The same neutral Gem feeds multiple code-gen targets and managed backends — pick a target, publish, and undeploy when you're done.

The north star
Shopify let anyone launch a store without building commerce infrastructure. AgentGem is laying the same foundation for agents — package once, then publish, deploy, discover, and monetize. Not a catalog of downloads: a live agent service network where Gems run on demand, are discovered agent-to-agent, and get paid per call. The Gem is the stepping stone.
