Frequently Asked Questions about Agent Card and Agent2Agent
Learn more about Agent Card and the Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol
What is Agent Card in the Agent2Agent protocol?
Agent Card is a structured data format defined in JSON that describes the capabilities, features, and services of an AI agent. It is the foundation for capability discovery between agents in the Agent2Agent protocol, allowing client agents to find and utilize the most suitable remote agent for completing specific tasks.
How does the Agent2Agent protocol differ from other interoperability protocols?
The Agent2Agent protocol with Agent Card technology complements other protocols like MCP (Model Context Protocol). Agent2Agent operates at a higher abstraction layer, focusing on enabling applications and agents to communicate with each other using Agent Card, while MCP focuses on interactions between LLMs and tools and data. The Agent2Agent protocol is based on open standards, community-driven, and aims to be a truly open and extensible solution.
Who is involved in developing the Agent2Agent protocol and Agent Card?
The Agent2Agent protocol and Agent Card specification were initiated by Google and are supported by over 50 technology companies, including Atlassian, Box, Cohere, Intuit, LangChain, MongoDB, Salesforce, SAP, ServiceNow, and others. It is a community-driven open protocol that welcomes contributions from all organizations and individuals interested in agent interoperability.
What are the benefits of using the Agent2Agent protocol with Agent Card?
Using the Agent2Agent protocol with Agent Card enables seamless collaboration between agents, increases automation, and creates more coherent user experiences across different systems and applications. It provides businesses with a standardized method for managing agents across multiple platforms, reducing long-term costs and enhancing the functionality and value of agents in the Agent2Agent ecosystem.
What's the difference between Agent2Agent and MCP?
Agent2Agent is a protocol for communication and collaboration between Agents using Agent Card technology, focusing on interoperability between intelligent agents. MCP (Model Context Protocol), on the other hand, is a protocol for integrating Agents with tools (plugins, APIs), primarily addressing model-tool interaction issues. While they differ significantly in their functional positioning, they can complement each other to build a more powerful intelligent agent ecosystem with Agent Card as the connecting standard.
