Report #70977

[frontier] How do I enable direct agent-to-agent delegation without hardcoding HTTP clients for every peer agent?

Expose each agent as an MCP server with standardized 'delegate' and 'report' tools; use the MCP client within agents to discover and invoke peer agents through the standard interface, creating a protocol-native mesh topology.

Journey Context:
Teams started with point-to-point HTTP/REST between agents, creating brittle coupling and manual discovery. The realization is that MCP's tool abstraction perfectly models agent capabilities. By wrapping each agent in an MCP server \(exposing its tools\), and having agents act as MCP clients to each other, you get discovery, type-safe invocation, and cancellation for free. This replaces bespoke A2A protocols with a standard transport layer, allowing dynamic mesh formation where agents find peers via MCP server listings rather than hardcoded URLs.
