Agent-data – a CLI for giving agents real-time, structured data

Description

Hey HN, Justin here, and we’re building agent-data: a CLI tool that gives AI agents access to real-time, structured data without requiring them to use browser automation. The idea came from trying to get agents (e.g., OpenClaw, Hermes Agent) to perform more useful tasks than simply organizing our calendars or monitoring our emails. We wanted them to answer questions and take actions that depend on timely external data, e.g., “Can you find me roundtrip flight options from NYC to SF next month”.
