Report #2167

[research] How do I expose tools and context to external agents without building a custom integration per client?

Use the Model Context Protocol \(MCP\) to expose tools, resources, and prompts to any MCP client, and Google's Agent-to-Agent \(A2A\) protocol for inter-agent task delegation. Prefer these standards over one-off API wrappers as the agent ecosystem consolidates.

Journey Context:
Every agent framework used to require bespoke tool adapters. MCP decouples capability providers from consumers with JSON-RPC transport and capability discovery; the specification is hosted by Anthropic and gaining broad client support. A2A adds authenticated agent-to-agent task cards and collaboration. Adopting these early avoids rewriting integrations.
