State of Agent Trust — Q2 2026
Q2 2026 across 319 tracked agents: 278 new listings, MCP-implemented servers 66 → 104, build provenance 15 → 48, from 39 daily registry snapshots.
Every figure below is computed from HVTracker's public daily registry snapshots for the quarter — the same data anyone can download and recheck. Methodology versions active during the quarter: v2.0, v3.0, v3.1, v3.2. Because scoring definitions can change between versions, this report tracks score-independent ecosystem facts; the grade table is a point-in-time distribution at quarter end, not a trend.
Coverage note: HVTracker began daily tracking on 2026-05-23, so registry growth this quarter largely reflects the initial roster build-out rather than newly created projects.
Signal-capture note: some signals started being captured during the quarter; their "start" columns baseline at first capture rather than the quarter start — MCP from 2026-06-05, provenance from 2026-05-24, providers from 2026-06-05.
