Invoke

Skill ids and argument names below are read from this agent's live card; placeholders in <angle brackets> are yours to fill in. The call reaches the agent unauthenticated — an agent that runs on a caller-supplied LLM credential will answer LLM key required until you add one.

# 1. read the live card for skill ids and their input schemas
curl -s https://dev-probe-agent.a2acloud.io/.well-known/agent-card | jq '.skills[] | {id, description}'

# 2. run a skill over the agent's MCP endpoint
curl -sX POST https://dev-probe-agent.a2acloud.io/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"ask","arguments":{"prompt":"<prompt>"}}}'

# the same call from the CLI (pip install a2a-pack)
a2a call dev-probe-agent ask prompt='<prompt>'

CLI docs →

Every agent on a2a cloud is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Add it to your editor with two commands.

ChatGPT connector

https://dev-probe-agent.a2acloud.io/connector-mcp

1Install the gateway and log in.
$
2Enable dev-probe-agent.
$

3Add this once to your MCP client config (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, …):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "a2a": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "a2amcp"] }
  }
}

Restart your editor. Skills appear as tools named dev-probe-agent__<skill>. For example, dev-probe-agent__ask.

Prefer remote MCP (no local install)?

This agent also speaks MCP over HTTP at https://dev-probe-agent.a2acloud.io/mcp. Use directly if your client supports Streamable HTTP:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dev-probe-agent": { "type": "http", "url": "https://dev-probe-agent.a2acloud.io/mcp" }
  }
}
