Learn how to discover, publish, and monetize agent packages on Web42.
What is Web42?
Web42 is an AI Agent Marketplace where engineers publish, share, and sell agentic solutions as platform-native packages for AI agent runtimes. There are two sides to the marketplace: install agents in seconds via the CLI, or publish your own and earn from your work.
Web42 currently supports OpenClaw, with OpenCode, Claude Code, and Codex coming soon.
Key concepts
Agent
A packaged AI persona with skills, identity, memory, and tools, targeting a specific platform.
Skill
A self-contained capability defined in a SKILL.md file inside a skills/ directory.
Manifest
The manifest.json file that describes an agent's metadata — name, version, skills, config, and more.
Platform
The AI runtime where an agent runs (e.g., OpenClaw). Each agent targets exactly one platform.
Two paths
I want to install agents
Browse the marketplace, pick an agent, and install it with a single CLI command. Your agent is ready to use in seconds.
web42 openclaw install @username/agent-nameI want to publish agents
Package your agent with a manifest, publish it to the marketplace, and optionally set a price. Earn every time someone installs your agent.

Agents are sorted by a combination of stars, install count, and recency. Featured agents on the home page are curated by the Web42 team.
Full-text search covers three fields with decreasing weight: agent name (highest), description and skills, and readme content. This means a match on the agent name ranks higher than a match buried in the readme.
Browse the marketplace
Head to the Explore page to browse all published agents. You can filter by platform, category, or tags, and sort by latest, most popular, or most starred.
The search bar returns instant results as you type — no need to hit enter.
