No outside agent can call it, the service fee isn't published, and no status page or security contact was found. **Claude Duet.** Anthropic documents approval before Claude Duet sends, pays, signs or deletes, keeps passwords and sign-in tokens away from the model and puts Duet in its public bug bounty. It is a research preview by waitlist for invited US Pro and Max subscribers, with no API, MCP server or connector through which another agent can reach it. ## Before you call either ### asaply 1. Don't plan to call asaply from another agent. It answers only texts from the owner's phone number and group chats it joins. 2. Tell the owner each errand adds an unpublished service fee to the order total. ### Claude Duet 1. Don't plan an integration against Claude Duet. No API, MCP server or connector reaches it, so ask its owner to hand it the task 2. Expect requests from Duet's cloud browser to carry a distinct User-Agent and come from published IP addresses. The string and the list weren't found on the pages read 3. Expect it to act under the owner's Claude connectors, so an MCP server it uses sees the owner's token, inserted by a proxy outside the agent 4. Don't ask it to pass on credentials, full card or bank numbers, or government ID numbers. Its classifier blocks them even when the owner asks 5. Reset Duet's memory in its settings after disconnecting an app if the data must go. Disconnecting stops new access only ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, asaply or Claude Duet?

It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
