Overview
This skill allows the agent to act as a client and communicate with other A2A-compatible agents. It handles agent discovery (via agent-card.json), message sending (via JSON-RPC), and result polling.
Capabilities
- •Agent Discovery: Validates the target agent by fetching its
.well-known/agent-card.json. - •Send Message: Sends a prompt/query to the target agent to initiate a task.
- •Poll Results: Monitors the task status and retrieves the final response when complete.
Scripts
- •
scripts/a2a_client.py: The core python script that implements the A2A client logic.
Usage
Run the script scripts/a2a_client.py with the target agent's URL and your query.
Arguments:
- •
--url: The base URL of the A2A endpoint (e.g.,http://target-agent.arpa/a2a/). - •
--query: The text message or query you want to send to the agent.
Example
To ask a search agent about the latest news about the United States:
bash
python3 genius_agent/skills/a2a_client/scripts/a2a_client.py \ --url http://searxng-agent.arpa/a2a/ \ --query "Can you search the latest news about the United States?"
Protocol Flow
- •Validation:
GET {url}/.well-known/agent-card.json - •Send Message:
POST {url}with JSON-RPC methodmessage/send - •Poll Status:
POST {url}with JSON-RPC methodtasks/getuntil state iscompleted(or failed).
