Cameron McEwing - Connected Agents: Building Distributed Multi-Agent AI Systems with MCP and A2A
Join our monthly meetup about all things Python at Trade Me's office at 181 High Street. Doors open at 5:30pm, with the talk starting at 6:30pm. Trade Me is generously providing food and drinks.
Look for a glass door with a sign mentioning the meetup and head upstairs to the Trade Me office. Call the phone number on the sign if you arrive late and the door is closed.
The meetup will also be accessible virtually. Point your web browser at https://bbb2.nzoss.nz/b/men-pg1-cot-ai2 to access the session using Big Blue Button.
AI is moving beyond single-model prompting toward systems of intelligent, cooperating agents. This talk introduces the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard that enables agents to interact with tools in a structured and consistent way. We'll also explore the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol, which supports direct communication between agents and the creation of distributed multi-agent systems (MAS). The session includes practical examples using emerging Python libraries that implement MCP and A2A.
Don't hesitate to pass this information around to whomever you think may be interested to hear and discuss all things Python.
