A2A MCP Server — Agent-to-Agent Protocol Bridge

A2A MCP server bridging Google's Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol with MCP — enabling MCP-based agents to communicate with agents built on the A2A protocol, supporting cross-framework agent-to-agent communication and integrating Google's A2A ecosystem with Anthropic's MCP ecosystem.

Best When

A team builds multi-agent systems spanning both MCP and A2A ecosystems — particularly when integrating Google's agent framework with Claude/MCP-based agents.

Avoid When

Your agents are all MCP-based or don't need A2A interoperability.

Use Cases

  • Connecting MCP agents with Google A2A-compatible agents from orchestration agents
  • Building cross-framework multi-agent systems from enterprise agents
  • Bridging Claude agents with agents from other frameworks supporting A2A
  • Enterprise multi-agent orchestration across different AI frameworks
  • Testing A2A protocol implementations from development agents
  • Interoperability between agent platforms from integration agents

Not For

  • Teams using only MCP-based agents (no A2A components)
  • Simple single-agent workflows
  • Teams unfamiliar with A2A protocol specification

Authentication

Methods: api_key bearer_token
OAuth: No Scopes: No

Authentication depends on the A2A agent endpoints being bridged. Configurable per-agent authentication tokens.

Pricing

Model: free
Free tier: Yes
Requires CC: No

Community MCP bridge is free. A2A agent infrastructure costs depend on deployment.

Known Gotchas

  • A2A protocol is relatively new (2025) — ecosystem still maturing
  • Requires understanding both MCP and A2A protocol specifications
  • Community bridge — not officially endorsed by Google or Anthropic
  • A2A protocol changes may break bridge without notice
  • Both A2A and MCP agents must be running for bridge to function
  • Cross-framework debugging is complex — errors may originate in either system
