Alone this would be Lindy's -3 for a pricing-page answer the vendor's own pages contradict (https://www.skydive.com/assets/main-MHOpsky7.js, https://www.skydive.com/privacy).", "2) Certification, one of the three. The home page says \"SOC 2 compliant\" twice and the site footer shows a badge with the alt text \"SOC 2 Type 1\", while the DPA (7.2) says that as of 29 July 2026 Create is pursuing SOC 2 compliance and does not represent that any SOC 2 or ISO 27001 report or certification has been completed, and the privacy policy says Create is pursuing SOC 2.

The Secrets, Network controls and Permissioning pages say the agent never sees a secret, that it \"was never in the sandbox to begin with\" and that the design \"removes the whole class of risk\", and the pricing FAQ says secrets are \"never shown to the model\". The platform CLI, which the docs say is inside every agent's sandbox, lists `secrets get` to read a value and `secrets download --plain` to print raw values, and the OpenAPI description of setAgentSecret says the value becomes an environment variable in the sandbox. Alone this would be at least the -2 Picoclaw and OpenInstinct took for a security claim the product doesn't keep.

Its status page records several major incidents, including a 25-hour Agent Hosting outage, and its home and pricing pages say data is never used for training while the privacy policy turns training on by default.\n\n**Town.** Town is a hosted assistant that works across the owner's mail, calendar and work apps, and other systems can start its routines through per-routine webhooks with rotatable secrets, idempotency keys and documented errors. A caller can't read a run's result. The privacy policy and trust page disagree on whether training is on by default.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Skydive\n\n1. Send tasks with `skydive chat -p \"...\" --agent \u003cid\u003e --json` and pass `--conversation \u003cid\u003e` from the JSON to keep context. The REST API can't send a task.\n2. Don't retry `chat -p` or a create blindly after a timeout. There's no idempotency key, so list agents or keys before retrying.\n3. Ask the owner for an agent-bound `use` key when you only need to read. Account-level `edit` keys can create agents and mint keys.\n4. Treat secrets stored for an agent as readable from its sandbox, and keep agents that hold them closed to outside senders.\n5. Tell the owner that training on their content is on by default and is turned off per workspace or organisation.\n\n### Town\n\n1. Start a Town routine with POST to its webhook URL, Authorization Bearer whsec_ secret, and application/json or text/plain. Expect 202 only.\n2. Send X-Town-Idempotency-Key with a stable event id on every retry so Town doesn't start a second run.\n3. Treat 404 as wrong secret, disabled endpoint or missing endpoint alike, and ask the owner to check Routine Settings rather than retrying.\n4. Send account_email only if the owner allowed the override. It must match a connected account in full and can't widen the routine's scope.\n5. Ask the owner to keep routines that act on webhook input in approval-required mode, as Town's own docs advise.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Skydive or Town?\n\nSkydive scores 52.1 (D) on agent readiness against Town's 48.7 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
