Agent-net Open Sources Webagent: A Go Harness That Turns Any Website into a Guarded AI Agent

FeaturesIndustry

Agent-net has released Webagent, described in the article as an open source harness for standing up public-facing business agents. MarkTechPost published its report on September 14, 2026, under the headline 'Agent-net Open Sources Webagent: A Go Harness That Turns Any Website into a Guarded AI Agent.' The article identifies Agent-net as the team building an agent-to-agent marketplace where AI agents discover, trust, and pay each other. According to the article, the harness is written in Go.

The article states that Webagent turns any website into a guarded AI agent. Instead of writing orchestration code, a business fills in a declarative JSON spec. The business then picks one provider for each of nine pluggable slots. It then runs the command `webagent serve`. The article presents these steps as the alternative to writing orchestration code.

The release is described in the context of Agent-net's work on an agent-to-agent marketplace in which AI agents discover, trust, and pay each other. The article presents the harness as a way to stand up public-facing business agents through configuration rather than code. The components the article names are the declarative JSON spec, the nine pluggable slots with one provider chosen for each, and the `webagent serve` command. The article states that Webagent is open source and does not name the providers available for the nine pluggable slots, nor any businesses that have used the harness.
