# with-a2a
|
|
|
|
An example of using [assistant-ui](https://www.assistant-ui.com/) with the [A2A (Agent-to-Agent) protocol](https://github.com/a2aproject/A2A).
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
### 1. Start an A2A server
|
|
|
|
You need an A2A-compatible agent server. For example, using the [assistant-ui-a2a](https://github.com/assistant-ui/assistant-ui-a2a) kitchen sink demo:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd a2a-server
|
|
pip install -e .
|
|
python main.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This starts an A2A server at `http://localhost:9999` with 5 skills.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Configure the frontend
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
# Edit .env if your A2A server is not at localhost:9999
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Run the frontend
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pnpm install
|
|
pnpm dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
|
|
|
|
## Features Demonstrated

|
|
| Error/failure handling | `/fail` |
|
|
| Long-running + cancellation | `/slow` |
|
|
| Agent card display | Automatic on load |
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Browser (Next.js) ──A2A v1.0 SSE──▶ A2A Server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
No proxy backend needed. `@assistant-ui/react-a2a` handles the full A2A protocol directly:
|
|
- Agent card discovery (`/.well-known/agent-card.json`)
|
|
- Streaming via `POST /message:stream` (SSE)
|
|
- Task lifecycle management
|
|
- Artifact accumulation
