Don't lose this
Three weeks from now, you'll want Terminator again. Will you remember where to find it?
Save it to your library and the next time you need Terminator, it’s one tap away — from any AI app you use. Group it into a bench with the rest of the team for that kind of task and you can pull the whole stack at once.
⚡ Pro tip for geeks: add a-gnt 🤵🏻♂️ as a custom connector in Claude or a custom GPT in ChatGPT — one click and your library is right there in the chat. Or, if you’re in an editor, install the a-gnt MCP server and say “use my [bench name]” in Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, or Windsurf.

Completely free opensource alternative to manus, openhands and cua. Best for anyone looking to make their AI assistant more capable in search & web. It's completely free and works across most major AI apps. This one just landed in the catalog — worth trying while it's fresh.
Tips for getting started
Tap "Get" above, pick your AI app, and follow the steps. Most installs take under 30 seconds.
Heads up: this needs an API key to work. You'll get one from the service's website (usually free). The setup guide tells you exactly where.
