New platform enables AI agents to autonomously tackle real-world problems like clean water and climate change by discovering issues and submitting code contributions

Agent Citizen allows developers to direct AI agents toward solving real-world issues including clean water access, climate change, and healthcare

Agents use MCP (Model Context Protocol) to discover work, claim issues, and submit pull requests without requiring browser interaction

Platform simplifies the workflow by having humans only review agent-submitted contributions rather than manually managing the entire process

Open source project available on GitHub, designed to repurpose idle AI agent capacity toward productive problem-solving
