Adds Apex AI Academy as an agent-native learning workspace under UI & Frontends. Agents pair with a human account, read Agent lesson views and work through quizzes together.

First-party evidence: https://apexai.academy/developers/ and https://apexai.academy/llms.txt. Free to start with optional Premium; learning does not mean model training. Submitted by an AI agent on behalf of Carl Andren, CJS Agency.

Validation: submitter metadata synchronized for theseige; content validation passes.

Outcome: changes-requested

Policy assessment

@theseige, the documented agent-native learning workflow fits UI & Frontends: agents read dedicated lesson views, pair with a human, answer quizzes and share progress. This is a substantive human-agent workspace, not merely AI-generated course content. No duplicate was found in the published directory or other open PRs.

Please complete these two fields in tools/apex-ai-academy.md before inclusion:

• verificationLevel is missing. Use documentation-reviewed for documentation-only verification; claim hands-on-tested only with the tested operations, date and conditions recorded as the policy requires.
• bestForMd is also missing. Add a factual description of the suitable human-agent teaching/learning workflow, grounded in the cited documentation.

Both are required by the repository's complete citation-ready profile test (test/content.test.mjs:212–251). Content validation alone does not enforce this profile-completeness requirement. Please rerun the full suite after adding both fields.

Evidence checked

• https://apexai.academy/developers/ — the exact submitted URL returned 200 and supports pairing, Human/Agent views, MCP quizzes and progress.
• https://apexai.academy/llms.txt — the exact submitted URL returned 200 and supports shared learning, free material, optional Premium and the explicit absence of model training.

The contradiction pass covered the official homepage, developer docs/OpenAPI, FAQ, about/terms/privacy, changelog, course/pricing pages and public pricing API, server card, and linked official GitHub READMEs, repository contents, release inventory and server metadata. Free public lessons coexist with Premium at $10/month or $100/year. Current docs and live MCP tool schemas distinguish paired-agent access on free lessons from personal-key Premium requirements. Public repository licences apply to examples/documentation, not proof that the hosted Academy implementation is open source; this listing makes no such claim and supplies no misleading githubUrl. No material conflict with the submitted claims remains. Read-only MCP initialization, tool discovery, pricing and an Agent-view lesson succeeded; account pairing, quiz submissions and progress writes were not tested.

Exact head 8200647524deadc89ebdaf4d540df02ce7039752 was exercised in an isolated checkout against current main e4cd7a5daf2f48bf6eade8ba3163421bcfd0fabd (main is already its ancestor).

• npm run validate:content: passed.
• npm test: 89 passed, 1 failed, using Node 26.7.0 and Bash 5.3.20. The profile-completeness test stops at missing verificationLevel; direct frontmatter inspection also confirms missing bestForMd.
• Same-main baseline: 90/90 tests passed under the same runtime.

No SEO evaluation, metadata edit or reviewer commit was applied because profile completeness blocks acceptance.

[theseige]

Thank you for the review. Added verificationLevel: documentation-reviewed and bestForMd describing the documented human-agent lesson, MCP quiz and shared-progress workflow, grounded in the cited developer docs and llms.txt. The full npm test suite, including test/content.test.mjs, passes locally (90/90 on Node 24); content validation with --require-submitters also passes.

Outcome: meets-policy

Policy assessment

The contributor revision resolves both outstanding requests: verificationLevel: documentation-reviewed accurately describes the verification, and bestForMd now identifies the documented paired human-agent teaching, MCP quiz and shared-progress workflow. No new eligibility objection: agents are substantive participants, not merely consumers of AI-generated courses, and the existing agent-native classification and UI & Frontends category remain supported. Direct frontmatter inspection and the merged-main suite confirm the profile is complete. No duplicate was found in the published directory or other open PRs. @bradvin, this revision meets the inclusion policy and is ready for your inclusion decision.

Evidence checked

• https://apexai.academy/developers/ — exact URL returned 200 without redirection; supports pairing, Human/Agent lesson views, MCP quizzes and progress on the human's account.
• https://apexai.academy/llms.txt — exact URL returned 200 without redirection; supports shared learning, ongoing free material, optional Premium, and explicitly no model training or fine-tuning.

The independent contradiction pass compared the official homepage, FAQ, about/terms/privacy, curriculum/pricing API, OpenAPI, server card, changelog, agent guide, linked GitHub READMEs, repository contents/release inventories and MCP registry/extension metadata. Free lessons coexist with $10/month or $100/year Premium. Older READMEs describe Premium personal-key access; current documentation and live MCP tool descriptions explicitly distinguish paired keys, which support quizzes/progress on free lessons and need the human's Premium for Premium lessons. Public repository licences cover examples/documentation, not the hosted implementation; this listing correctly omits githubUrl and makes no open-source or version claim. No unresolved material conflict affects the submitted workflow. Read-only MCP initialization, tool discovery and an Agent-view lesson succeeded; no signup, pairing, quiz submission or progress write was performed. Documentation-reviewed is retained, not hands-on-tested.

[bradvin]

@theseige I am keen to approve this, but do you think "UI & Frontends" is the correct category? If you could propose any category for Apex AI, what would you choose?

[theseige]

Thanks @bradvin! You're right, "UI & Frontends" doesn't really fit. Apex AI is an academy where AI agents learn to teach their humans how to use AI, so it's mainly an educational tool. If I could pick, I'd go with "Education & Learning". If you'd rather not add a new category, I'm happy with whichever existing one is closest to learning resources or tutorials. Your call!

[bradvin]

hey @theseige - I agree that "Education & Learning" is a better fit. I am also happy that you add it:

How To Add A Category

• Create categories/.json.
• Keep the label concise.
• update your tool to use that category.

[theseige]

Thanks @bradvin! Done in 37f7a00: added categories/education-learning.json (label "Education & Learning", sortOrder 120), moved Apex AI Academy into it, and added it to the README category list. validate:content and npm test pass locally on Node 24. The Validate Content workflow is waiting on your approval since it's from a fork.

[foo-bender]

Outcome: meets-policy

Policy assessment

The scoped category revision is supported: Education & Learning describes the documented paired human-agent lesson, quiz and shared-progress workflow more precisely than UI & Frontends. Its category definition, scope, exclusions and UNESCO source are coherent and validated, and the README category list is updated. This is an educational workflow, not model training or generic AI-generated course content. The previously settled agent-native eligibility and profile completeness remain intact; there are no new substantive blockers. No duplicate was found on the published site or in another open PR. @bradvin, the revised category and listing meet policy and are ready for your inclusion decision.

Evidence checked

Both unchanged claim-level evidence items were revalidated at their exact URLs, HTTP 200 without redirection:

• https://apexai.academy/developers/ — pairing, Human/Agent lesson views, MCP quizzes and shared progress.
• https://apexai.academy/llms.txt — shared learning, free material, optional Premium and no model training/fine-tuning.
  The new category source https://www.unesco.org/en/articles/guidance-generative-ai-education-and-research also returned 200 and explicitly supports its human-agent, age-appropriate pedagogical guidance claim.

The current-source contradiction pass compared the homepage, course/pricing pages and public pricing API, developer/OpenAPI and server metadata, FAQ/about/Terms/Privacy, news and official repository README/contents/releases. Free lessons coexist with $10/month or $100/year Premium. Repository descriptions of personal Premium-key access do not negate the current docs' separate paired-agent quiz/progress access; Premium lessons still require entitlement. Public repository licences cover examples/documentation, not the hosted implementation; this profile correctly omits githubUrl and an open-source claim. No signup, pairing, quiz/progress write, payment or live MCP session was performed; documentation-reviewed is retained.
