Zero to Agent in 30 Minutes: Build a Supply Chain for Agent Context with Maxim Salnikov

Maxim Salnikov highlights the lack of tracking for AI agent customizations, as developers install numerous skills and instructions from public repositories that remain scattered across codebases. Simultaneously, Agent-to-Agent (A2A) marketplaces are emerging as decentralized directories for 2026. These platforms allow autonomous agents to discover, negotiate, and pay for services from other agents. Unlike API gateways, these stateful programs use machine-readable descriptions, verifiable credentials, and on-chain payment settlements to facilitate autonomous service exchanges.
