a2a-bridge-mcp

MCP server for agent-to-agent communication -- capability discovery, task delegation, and result aggregation across MCP agents.

MCP connects agents to tools, but not to each other. This server adds a standardized agent-to-agent layer within the MCP protocol -- register agents, discover capabilities, delegate tasks, and broadcast work to multiple agents. Inspired by Google's A2A protocol.

Install

Usage Pattern

1. register_agent    -- each agent registers at startup
2. discover_agents   -- find who can handle a task
3. delegate_task     -- send work to a specific agent
   OR broadcast_task -- send work to all matching agents
4. get_task_result   -- poll for completion or submit results
5. get_agent_card    -- inspect an agent's full profile
6. list_agents       -- overview of the agent network

Multi-agent workflow example

Agent A (orchestrator):
  1. register_agent(agent_id="orchestrator", capabilities=["planning", "coordination"])
  2. discover_agents(capability_needed="code review")
     -> finds Agent B (score: 0.95)
  3. delegate_task(from="orchestrator", to="agent-b", task="Review PR #42")
     -> task_id: "task_1234"
  4. get_task_result(task_id="task_1234")
     -> status: "completed", result: { approved: true, comments: [...] }

Agent B (worker):
  1. register_agent(agent_id="agent-b", capabilities=["code-review", "linting"])
  2. (receives task via external notification or polling)
  3. get_task_result(task_id="task_1234", submit_result={ approved: true })
