Report #78606
[frontier] Multi-agent systems require hardcoded orchestration logic, preventing dynamic collaboration and scaling
Implement Google's Agent2Agent \(A2A\) protocol for capability advertisement: agents expose Agent Cards with skill manifests, enabling dynamic task delegation via authenticated JSON-RPC without central broker
Journey Context:
Traditional multi-agent architectures use static DAGs or central 'boss' agents with hardcoded routing. A2A enables federated discovery: agents register capabilities \(send-email, query-db\) via Agent Cards and negotiate task delegation directly using HTTP\+JSON-RPC \(not gRPC\) for firewall traversal. Key insight: A2A uses explicit authentication via OpenID Connect and structured input/output schemas, replacing hub-spoke topologies with peer-to-peer agent meshes that scale horizontally without single points of failure.
