What to do about it
- Pick a gateway that works with the agents your team uses today and the ones it is trying next. The top agents change month to month.
- Set per-agent spend limits and model allowlists at the gateway instead of per laptop.
Route Claude Code, OpenCode, Cline and Kilo Code through one API key with spend limits and failover.

Method and definitions
- Agents are detected from the User-Agent product token and the X-Title header of each request, using the same rules as the public coding-agents classifier. Requests that match no rule are not counted.
- An organization can use more than one agent, so organization shares add up to more than 100%.
- A row is published only when it has at least 20 requests, at least 5 distinct organizations, and no single organization above 80% of its traffic. These are the same floors /rankings uses. Rows below the floors are withheld, not estimated.
- Only shares, rates, medians and organization bands are published. Absolute request, token and spend totals stay private.
- Agent organization:
- An organization that sent at least one request from any detected coding agent in the month.
- Request share:
- Share of all detected coding-agent requests in the month.
Caveats
- Agents that connect to providers directly, such as Cursor and GitHub Copilot by default, only appear when users route them through Requesty. Their share here understates their market share.
- Agents that do not send a recognisable User-Agent or X-Title are not counted.
- Discontinued agents stay in the history; they drop out of a month when they fall below the floors.
