a2a-framework-integration

a2a-framework-integration is a skill for Claude Code from OrcaQubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,309 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for connecting agents built with frameworks such as Google ADK, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, AWS Bedrock AgentCore, or Microsoft Azure AI Foundry to A2A, a standard for agent-to-agent communication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to expose a framework agent as an A2A server, call other A2A agents as a client, or include framework agents in a multi-agent system.
Why use it?
It helps framework-based agents communicate with other agents without replacing their existing framework-specific code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

a2a-framework-integration scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

A2A Framework Integration

Before writing code

Fetch live docs:

  1. Fetch https://a2a-protocol.org/latest/specification/ for the protocol spec
  2. Web-search site:github.com a2aproject a2a-samples for framework integration examples
  3. Web-search the specific framework's docs for A2A support:
    • site:google.github.io adk a2a agent-to-agent for Google ADK
    • site:langchain-ai.github.io langgraph a2a for LangGraph
    • site:docs.crewai.com a2a for CrewAI
    • site:docs.aws.amazon.com bedrock agentcore a2a for AWS Bedrock
    • site:learn.microsoft.com azure ai-foundry a2a for Microsoft Azure AI Foundry
  4. Fetch SDK docs for framework adapter classes

Conceptual Architecture

Why Framework Integration

Most production agents are built using frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, ADK, etc.). A2A framework integration allows these agents to:

  • Expose themselves as A2A servers (other agents can discover and call them)
  • Call other agents as A2A clients (delegate work to specialist agents)
  • Participate in multi-agent systems without rewriting framework-specific code

Google ADK (Agent Development Kit)

Google ADK has native A2A support since it was co-developed alongside A2A:

  • ADK agents can be directly exposed as A2A servers
  • ADK provides A2A client utilities for calling other agents
  • Agent Cards are generated from ADK agent configuration
  • Supports streaming, multi-turn, and push notifications

Integration approach: Use ADK's built-in A2A server/client utilities.

LangGraph / LangChain

LangGraph agents can be wrapped as A2A servers:

  • The graph's invoke/stream methods map to message/send and message/stream
  • Graph state maps to A2A task state
  • Interrupts in LangGraph map to input-required in A2A

Integration approach: Use A2A SDK adapters or build a thin wrapper that translates between LangGraph's interface and A2A's JSON-RPC protocol.

CrewAI

CrewAI's crew-based multi-agent model can integrate with A2A:

  • Individual crew members can be exposed as A2A agents
  • Entire crews can be wrapped as a single A2A agent
  • A2A enables cross-crew communication

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

a2a-framework-integration is a skill published in the GitHub repository OrcaQubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins (39 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 1,309 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
