Why this is canonical

'Agora' names the ancient Greek public marketplace and civic gathering space — it is the canonical metaphor for open, multi-party exchange. Compounded with 'agent' on .ai, it occupies the exact semantic position for a platform where agents are discovered, listed, deployed, or traded. The word carries intellectual weight (used in academic contexts for multi-agent system meeting points) while remaining immediately legible to a general technical audience.
