With the recent announcement by Google about its new interoperability standard in the AI era, known as the Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol, I believe it is an opportune time to integrate this technology into Cursor.
Feature Overview
The Agent2Agent protocol is designed to enable seamless interaction between autonomous agents, paving the way for advanced multi-agent collaborations in software development and other fields. By supporting A2A, Cursor would not only enhance its multi-agent communication capabilities but also position itself at the forefront of AI-driven development environments. I suggest implementing this feature as a Multi-agent Communication Protocol (MCP) within Cursor, which could result in:
- Enhanced Interoperability: Allowing multiple agents to communicate and work together more efficiently.
- Increased Productivity: Automating complex workflows where multiple agents can share tasks and insights dynamically.
- Future-Proofing the IDE: Preparing Cursor for the next generation of AI-assisted development by embracing modern, standardized protocols.
Implementation Considerations
- API Integration: Develop a robust API layer that aligns with the A2A protocol specifications to ensure smooth interoperability.
- Security & Privacy: Evaluate the security implications of agent-to-agent interactions and implement protocols that safeguard the integrity and privacy of code and data.
- Developer Tools: Provide comprehensive tools and documentation that allow developers to configure, monitor, and manage agent interactions effectively.

I believe that incorporating Agent2Agent as MCP will not only enhance the overall functionality of Cursor but also empower developers to build more collaborative and intelligent applications. Thank you for considering this request. I am excited about the potential impact of this integration and would be happy to discuss it further.
Thanks for the information! I’m working on this as well. I’ll also add a resource:
