What is World2Agent?

World2Agent (W2A) is an open protocol that standardizes how AI agents perceive the real world. Install a sensor, your agent gets structured, real-time data. Swap sensors freely — they all speak the same schema.

W2A isn't a product. It's an open protocol and an invitation. We built the first sensors — the real breakthroughs will come from the community.

World → Sensor → Agent

Sensors watch data sources and emit structured data following W2A Protocol. Your agent receives signals and decides what to do.

Quick Start

The fastest way to feel W2A is with Claude Code. In an active session, install the world2agent plugin:

/plugin marketplace add machinepulse-ai/world2agent-plugins
/plugin install world2agent@world2agent-plugins
/reload-plugins

Add a sensor — for example, Hacker News stories, frontier AI lab posts:

/world2agent:sensor-add @world2agent/sensor-hackernews
/world2agent:sensor-add @quill-io/sensor-frontier-ai-news

→ Browse the full catalog on SensorHub.

Restart Claude Code with the plugin channel loaded so sensor signals flow into your session:

claude --dangerously-load-development-channels plugin:world2agent@world2agent-plugins

Security — install only sensors you trust. A sensor's signals drive what your agent perceives and does, so an untrusted sensor is effectively an untrusted instruction source. Stick to open-source sensors from authors you trust, and review the code first.

Native integrations for other agent runtimes are coming soon.

Integrating W2A into your own agent system? See the developer quick start for the SDK code path.

Sensors

SensorHub

SensorHub is the catalog of every W2A sensor — official and community-built, organized by what each one perceives (markets, news, production alerts, weather, AI labs, …). Browse it to see what's available, view each sensor's signal schema, and grab the one-line install command. Looking for a sensor? Start here.

Every sensor is a standard npm package — npm search w2a-sensor works as a fallback if you prefer the raw view.

Missing a sensor?

Build your own in ~50 lines. The build-w2a-sensor skill walks an AI coding agent through discovery, signal design, scaffolding, and the install recipe — install it with:

npx skills add 

Once it's ready, ship it to npm:

npm publish

That's it — your
