[frontier] How do agents from different vendors communicate without custom integrations
Implement the Google A2A protocol using Agent Cards for capability discovery and Task objects for structured handoffs, enabling cross-platform agent federation.
Journey Context:
MCP standardizes tool access but not agent-to-agent negotiation. A2A \(released May 2025\) provides the missing layer for heterogeneous agents to delegate tasks without shared memory or code. Unlike direct API calls, A2A supports async, streaming, and human-in-the-loop. Critical for enterprise multi-vendor ecosystems.
