Claim the scorecard for researchgate.net

Free, no account, no email. Prove you control researchgate.net by publishing a token; you then get a private link with the grade history and a re-grade button (one per hour), and the badge reads "CLAIMED · F". A claim does not change the score.

1. Your token for researchgate.net

agx-fc8e0fe7a771c0581a4ac96855e27d3c

2. Publish it, either way

A file. Serve the token as plain text at https://researchgate.net/.well-known/agentexchange-claim.txt (HTTP 200, not redirected off the host; a www. variant is fine). One token per line if the file already carries other claims.

agx-fc8e0fe7a771c0581a4ac96855e27d3c

Or a meta tag in the <head> of https://researchgate.net/:

<meta name="agentexchange-claim" content="agx-fc8e0fe7a771c0581a4ac96855e27d3c">

3. Verify

We fetch the file, then the home page, once, with the user agent agentexchange-grade-claim/1.0 and a 7-second timeout.

Nothing is stored until the proof is found. Removing the file later does not unclaim the profile; re-verify at any time to get a fresh link. Limit: 10 verification attempts per hour per IP. Scripted use: curl -X POST https://grade.agentexchange.work/site/researchgate.net/claim.
