+# A2A Agent Examples
+
+This folder contains examples demonstrating how to create and use agents with the A2A (Agent2Agent) protocol from the `agent_framework` package to communicate with remote A2A agents.
+
+For more information about the A2A protocol specification, visit: https://a2a-protocol.org/latest/
+## Examples
+
+| File | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| [`agent_with_a2a.py`](agent_with_a2a.py) | The simplest way to connect to and use a single A2A agent. Demonstrates agent discovery via agent cards and basic message exchange using the A2A protocol. |
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+Make sure to set the following environment variables before running the example:
+
+### Required
+- `A2A_AGENT_HOST`: URL of a single A2A agent (for simple sample, e.g., `http://localhost:5001/`)
+
+
+## Quick Testing with .NET A2A Servers
+
+For quick testing and demonstration, you can use the pre-built .NET A2A servers from this repository:
+
+**Quick Testing Reference**: Use the .NET A2A Client Server sample at:
+`..\agent-framework\dotnet\samples\A2AClientServer`
+
+### Run Python A2A Sample
+```powershell
+# Simple A2A sample (single agent)
+uv run python agent_with_a2a.py
+```

+Agent2Agent (A2A) Protocol Integration Sample
+
+This sample demonstrates how to connect to and communicate with external agents using
+the A2A protocol. A2A is a standardized communication protocol that enables interoperability
+between different agent systems, allowing agents built with different frameworks and
+technologies to communicate seamlessly.
+
+For more information about the A2A protocol specification, visit: https://a2a-protocol.org/latest/
+
+Key concepts demonstrated:
+- Discovering A2A-compliant agents using AgentCard resolution
+- Creating A2AAgent instances to wrap external A2A endpoints
+- Converting Agent Framework messages to A2A protocol format
+- Handling A2A responses (Messages and Tasks) back to framework types
+
+To run this sample:
+1. Set the A2A_AGENT_HOST environment variable to point to an A2A-compliant agent endpoint
+   Example: export A2A_AGENT_HOST="https://your-a2a-agent.example.com"
+2. Ensure the target agent exposes its AgentCard at /.well-known/agent.json
+3. Run: uv run python agent_with_a2a.py
+
+The sample will:
+- Connect to the specified A2A agent endpoint
+- Retrieve and parse the agent's capabilities via its AgentCard
+- Send a message using the A2A protocol
+- Display the agent's response
+
+Visit the README.md for more details on setting up and running A2A agents.
