Agent2Agent (A2A)

Agent2Agent (A2A) is an open protocol that lets AI agents built by different organisations, on different frameworks, discover each other's capabilities, communicate, delegate tasks and collaborate on multi-step work without sharing internal implementations. Discovery happens through an agent card published at /.well-known/agent-card.json. Hosted by AAIF.
