A2A
A2A means Agent-to-Agent communication. It is the idea that different AI agents can talk to each other, hand off work, and coordinate tasks.
Simple idea: one agent does not need to do everything.
Why It Matters
Complex work often needs different specialists:
- Research agent.
- Compliance agent.
- Engineering agent.
- Support agent.
- Sales agent.
- Reviewer agent.
A2A helps split work across agents with clear responsibilities.
