OpenRouter, but for agent tools instead of models. Point an agent at one base URL with one token and it can do the job: a curated catalog of thousands of endpoints across many providers — SEO and backlinks, social and trends, people and company enrichment, ads, scraping, image and video generation — priced per call, from a cent, with no provider signup. Plus your own team's keys, skills and CLIs, callable by every teammate's agent without the credential ever leaving the server. Ask for the task, not the tool. You do not need to know which vendor sells backlink data, or to hold an account with them. Search for what you want to do, read the price, call it. Built for the Superdesign team, live at treg.to — anyone can self-host. Why it exists The tools an agent needs for real work sit behind subscriptions nobody buys for a single run — Semrush $139/mo, Moz $99/mo, Crunchbase $99/mo, Apollo $59/seat — behind signup walls, or behind no public API at all (invite-only, partner-only, app-review-only). treg carries those accounts and bills fractions of a cent per call. Two kinds of tool, one token The catalog — external endpoints treg can serve with its own key or through a verified public route that needs no provider key. Own-key calls use the team's prepaid balance; anonymous calls are free. No account with the provider is needed. New verified accounts receive $1.00 free once, when they create an eligible team. Your own tools — anything a teammate registered: a paid API account, an OAuth connection, a vendor CLI, a SKILL.md. Your own key always wins over treg's, and those calls are never metered. The vocabulary for the second half: tool = something the registry calls for you with the org's credential. Two kinds: endpoint — an upstream base_url + credential bindings (each binding injects one secret into the request; a request can carry several, e.g. an OAuth bearer and a developer-token header). CLI — a vendor binary (stripe, gh, vercel, ...) run with the credential injected. skill / bundle = a recipe (SKILL.md) + its secrets + its tool(s), registered together. The one rule: the proxy relays, never models the upstream, and injects auth server-side — so it survives upstream API changes and callers never hold keys. Part 1 · Using the registry Visit treg.to (hosted on Render) — the dashboard, sign-in, and every URL below live there. Quickstart Same flow as the dashboard's Getting started guide: # 1. install the CLI — also points it at the registry curl -fsSL https://treg.to/install.sh | sh # 2. sign in (GitHub default · --email for a one-time code · --token for agents/CI) treg login # 3. do something useful immediately — no key, nothing registered treg catalog search "backlinks for a domain" # find a tool by what it DOES treg call tikhub.tiktok.user.profile --query uniqueId=tiktok treg balance # exactly what that cost # (or `treg onboard` for the guided walkthrough) Fish Audio provides S2.1 Pro speech, public-voice discovery, and private voice cloning. Speech is binary stdout, so redirect it to a file. A discovered voice's _id or a team voice id is the TTS reference_id; voices created on treg's Fish account are durable team resources: treg call fishaudio.tts.s2-1-pro --method POST --header model=s2.1-pro \ --data '{"text":"Hello from treg","format":"mp3"}' > speech.mp3 treg call fishaudio.voices.discover --query self=false --query licensed=false --query language=en treg resources list --provider fishaudio --kind voice With your own Fish key, requests remain an unrestricted, unmetered upstream relay and Fish owns the account boundary. Catalog tool inputs are described by treg catalog get <id>. Tools marked strict_query reject undeclared or repeated query parameters, unsupported values and request bodies. Your token identifies you on every call (X-Treg-Token header) and is the same for all tools. Discover what your team has shared: treg tool ls · check credential health: treg health. Or install it as a Claude Code plugin /plugin marketplace add superdesigndev/treg /plugin install treg@treg Installs with no token and no configuration. The skill loads as treg:treg and, on its first run, walks your agent through the rest — the CLI, sign-in, then treg mcp install — so you end up with the command line and treg's tools. Other agents: npx skills add superdesigndev/treg -s treg (or see Workflow skills for the rest). See docs/CLAUDE-PLUGIN.md. MiniMax Code / MiniMax Agent users: the same skill ships via the MiniMax Plugin Marketplace (docs/MINIMAX-PLUGIN.md). Workflow skills Ready-made recipes your agent runs end to end, every call through treg: Skill What your agent can do treg Find and call any tool in the catalog, plus your own tools lead-signals Find in-market buyers from public signals (complaints, job changes, hiring, funding, tool adoption) and monitor a topic, competitor or account list for them (treg.to/leads-signals) make-ugc Make AI UGC videos: trending hooks, a presenter, talking-head clips, captions (treg.to/ugc) jev-memory Give Claude Code a memory: a Claude Code mod where Jev judges each prompt after the turn and keeps your lasting preferences, installed ready-made or built from one prompt (the mod) install.sh installs all of them for you except jev-memory, which is opt-in. To add them to an existing agent instead (skills.sh CLI): npx skills add superdesigndev/treg # every public skill npx skills add superdesigndev/treg --skill lead-signals # just one treg skill bootstrap # same set, with the treg CLI you already have The workflow skills run on treg, so set it up first (the Quickstart above, or point your agent at treg.to/llms.txt). Claude.ai connector The Claude Connectors Directory surface is https://treg.to/mcp/v2/. It exposes only curated catalog endpoints and separates read calls from write calls so Claude receives accurate safety signals. The existing /mcp/ surface remains available for catalog endpoints, team-owned tools, and imported skills. See the MCP and OAuth architecture for the boundary and implementation, and the submission runbook for release gates. Call a tool you don't have a key for The catalog is grouped by what endpoints do: keyword and rank tracking, backlinks and authority, AI visibility, trending and discovery, publishing to socials, people and company enrichment, ads management and creative, measurement. treg catalog # every platform, busiest first treg catalog search "find a work email" # by the job, not the vendor treg catalog get hunter.people.email.find # params, PRICE, example response treg call hunter.people.email.find --query domain=reddit.com --query full_name="Alexis Ohanian" How a catalogued call is served — the credential ladder, in order: your team registered its own tool for that provider → that tool, that key; your team stored a secret for the provider → injected through a virtual tool; neither, and the endpoint has a verified public route → no provider key, free; otherwise → treg's own key, billed to the team's prepaid balance. The anonymous price assumes the caller does not send a provider credential header. The faithful relay preserves caller headers, so a caller-supplied provider key can use that key's credits. Your own credential always beats treg's, so connecting a key you already pay for makes those calls free of the balance rather than duplicating them. An endpoint treg has no published price for is refused, not served free — you are told to connect your own key instead. Where several providers serve one capability, treg catalog search shows them side by side with prices; choosing is yours — treg does not silently pick or fail over between providers for you. (When treg's own account for a provider is out it may serve the same endpoint through a treg-owned relay account, disclosed on the response; a team can opt out.) The exception you opt into: treg.<capability> routed endpoints, where treg picks the provider for you and names it. treg balance # credit left, calls in flight, recent spend treg topup # add funds, or set up automatic top-ups Out of balance is an HTTP 402 carrying balance_micro, estimated_cost_micro and a topup_url, so an agent can act on it without reading prose. Enrich Arena lives at /enrich-arena, outside the dashboard. Compare enrichment answers with each vendor’s cost and speed, vote for the best answer in one click, or watch a sequential waterfall. Capability-compatible async providers participate too; Arena handles submit and polling internally. Browsing is public; submitting requires login, and billable attempts use your team's credits. See the Arena guide. Web Arena compares Web Search, Web Fetch, and Sitemap providers at /web-arena. Battle calls selected providers for the same input; Waterfall tries them in order. The live leaderboard combines direct provider-call hit rates and response times with checked Web Arena quality results over a rolling 30-day window. The pages open when the feature is enabled. See the Web Arena guide. Share & use your own tools The zero-thought path — point treg at a project and it figures out what's shareable: treg scan # read-only preview: the keys, skills & CLIs upload would register treg upload # register them (encrypted server-side); idempotent, --replace to update treg upload scans the .env (matching keys against ~80 known providers), every skill subdirectory, and installed catalog CLIs. Three kinds of things go into the registry — here's how to share and use each: 1. Endpoints (HTTP APIs) Share — one upstream URL callable with a stored key, or bulk from a .env: treg secret add STRIPE_KEY --value sk_live_123 treg add stripe --base-url https://api.stripe.com --secret STRIPE_KEY treg upload env --select openai,stripe,resend # or straight from the .env Use — the agent-native way: build the real upstream request and prefix it with the proxy.
