ServiceGraph Agent Skills

Datasets for founders — where to launch, who to email, who to hire.

Agent Skills for ServiceGraph — structured, metrics-enriched business datasets your agent can filter, rank, and pull contact data from. One filter DSL, one credit balance, many datasets:

Dataset	Size	Enriched with
Agencies (US professional-services firms)	110k+	services · size · location · ratings
Business directories	3,500+	industry · domain rating · traffic
Product directories	850+	submission policy · domain rating · traffic
Newsletters	50k+	subscribers · topics · post cadence
subreddits, influencers	coming soon

The skills in this repo cover the Agencies dataset today — law, marketing, design, consulting, accounting, IT services, AI/ML, web development, engineering, HR, PR, cybersecurity, and more, filterable by industry, services, location, size, ratings, and third-party listings. Skills for the directory, newsletter, and other datasets land here as they ship — same install, same API key, same DSL.

Compatible with 19+ AI agents including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, Cline, Goose, Windsurf, and any other harness that supports the Agent Skills format.

Prefer MCP? Use the hosted server.

If your harness speaks the Model Context Protocol, skip the skill install and point it at the hosted MCP server:

https://mcp.servicegraph.co

• Transport: Streamable HTTP
• Auth: OAuth 2.1 + PKCE with Dynamic Client Registration — your harness opens a browser tab on first use; you sign in on servicegraph.co and are bounced back. No client ID or secret to copy around, no API key to paste.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http servicegraph https://mcp.servicegraph.co

Claude Desktop

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, then paste:

https://mcp.servicegraph.co

The OAuth handshake runs in your browser on first use.

Codex CLI

~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.servicegraph]
url = "https://mcp.servicegraph.co"

Cursor and other JSON-config clients

.cursor/mcp.json (or the equivalent for your harness):

      "url": "https://mcp.servicegraph.co"
    }

Usage

Skills are automatically available once installed. The agent will pick the right one when it detects a relevant task.

Examples:

Find me three boutique IP law firms in California that handle patent
prosecution for hardware startups.

Need a shortlist of mid-size SEO agencies in NY or NJ with a strong B2B
SaaS portfolio.

We're hiring a CPA firm for a Delaware C-corp Series A audit.
Recommend 5 options under 50 people.

Here are 12 marketing agency domains I scraped — pull contact info and
confirm which are in the US.

How it works — browse free, unlock with credits

Every dataset lives behind the same per-dataset URL shape and the same filter DSL. For the agencies dataset the id is pro_services:

GET  /v1/datasets/pro_services/fields    →  field catalog + DSL grammar · free
GET  /v1/datasets/pro_services/check     →  validate a filter · free
GET  /v1/datasets/pro_services/search    →  brief firm cards · free
GET  /v1/datasets/pro_services/{apex}    →  one row (brief; detail if unlocked) · free
POST /v1/datasets/pro_services/unlocks   →  full contact bundle · 10 credits/row

Discovery, filtering, and brief cards are free — you only spend credits to unlock a row's full contact detail (URL, phone, email, social, address). An unlock lasts 30 days and re-fetching within that window is free.

• 2,000 free credits on signup, no card.
• 10 credits per row (~$0.10). Top-ups: $10 / 1,000 credits, $80 / 10,000 (20% off). Credits never expire.

Filter DSL

One query parameter, GitHub-search-style. AND binds tighter than OR; -x / NOT x for negation; tag@evidence for the service_provided field. Any bareword is a free-text keyword search across firm name, brand, title, meta description, and legal name.

industry:legal state:CA,NY -company_size_signal:solo
industry:management_consulting service_provided:strategy-consulting@high
dental industry:marketing_agency
rating>=4 review_count_total>=20 has:clutch
(web3 OR blockchain) state:CA

The field catalog (kinds, operators, allowed values) is discoverable at runtime via /v1/datasets/pro_services/fields.

Why structured beats search

• Filter, don't grep. Industry, services, location, size, rating, domain authority, traffic, third-party listings — all queryable as a single filter string, not a wall of fuzzy web results.
• Metrics built in. Every row carries the signals you'd otherwise scrape by hand — agency ratings, directory DR/traffic, newsletter subscriber counts — so an agent can rank, not just list.
• Cheaper than scraping. Browse and filter for free; pay only for the contact rows you actually want, ~$0.10 each, 30-day access, credits never expire. Beats Google, ChatGPT guesses, and stale Notion/Twitter lists.

Skill structure

Each skill follows the Agent Skills Open Standard:

• SKILL.md — required manifest with frontmatter (name, description, metadata)

The skills in this repo are single-file. No bundled scripts or references yet — the API is small enough that the agent does fine with prose + copy-pasteable curl examples.
