| 128 | +## 🚀 How to Use |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +### For Conductor Users |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +```bash |
| 133 | +# 1. One-time setup in repository root |
| 134 | +cd /path/to/adcp-client-python |
| 135 | +cp .env.example .env |
| 136 | +# Edit .env with your tokens |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +# 2. In each new Conductor worktree |
| 139 | +python3 scripts/setup_conductor_env.py |
| 140 | + |
| 141 | +# 3. Install and test |
| 142 | +pip install -e . |
| 143 | +python3 tests/integration/test_creative_agent.py |
| 144 | +``` |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +### For Regular Development |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +```bash |
| 149 | +# Install |
| 150 | +pip install -e . |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +# Configure agents in code |
| 153 | +from adcp import ADCPClient |
| 154 | +from adcp.types import AgentConfig, Protocol |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +config = AgentConfig( |
| 157 | + id="my_agent", |
| 158 | + agent_uri="https://agent.example.com", |
| 159 | + protocol=Protocol.MCP, |
| 160 | + auth_token="your-token", |
| 161 | +) |
| 162 | + |
| 163 | +client = ADCPClient(config) |
| 164 | + |

| 167 | +``` |
| 168 | + |
| 169 | +### Using Environment Variables |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +```bash |
| 172 | +# Set ADCP_AGENTS in .env |
| 173 | +export ADCP_AGENTS='[{"id":"agent1",...}]' |
| 174 | + |
| 175 | +# Load in code |
| 176 | +from adcp import ADCPMultiAgentClient |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | +client = ADCPMultiAgentClient.from_env() |
| 179 | +agent = client.agent("agent1") |
| 180 | +``` |
| 181 | + |
| 182 | +## ⚠️ Known Limitations |
| 183 | + |
| 184 | +### 1. Python Version |
| 185 | +- **MCP SDK requires Python 3.10+** |
| 186 | +- System has Python 3.9.6 |
| 187 | +- A2A works fine on 3.9 |
| 188 | +- Solution: Use Docker, pyenv, or system with 3.10+ |
| 189 | + |
| 190 | +### 2. Test Agent Issues |
| 191 | +- A2A test agent returns 404 on all endpoints tried |
| 192 | +- May not have A2A implemented |
| 193 | +- Have 3 working MCP agents as alternatives |
| 194 | + |
| 195 | +### 3. Type Generation |
| 196 | +- Currently using `**kwargs` for tool parameters |
| 197 | +- Need to generate Pydantic models from AdCP JSON schemas |
| 198 | +- This is Priority 1 for next phase |
| 199 | + |
| 200 | +## 🎯 Next Steps |

| 218 | +4. Implement property discovery (PropertyCrawler) |
| 219 | + |
| 220 | +### Long-term |
| 221 | +1. Comprehensive error handling |
| 222 | +2. Retry logic with exponential backoff |
| 223 | +3. Connection pooling |

| 226 | + |
| 227 | +## 📈 Metrics |
| 228 | + |
| 229 | +**Code Written**: |
| 230 | +- ~2,500 lines of Python |
| 231 | +- 11 AdCP tools implemented |
| 232 | +- 2 protocol adapters |
| 233 | +- 4 integration test suites |
| 234 | +- 2 setup automation scripts |

| 244 | +- Implementation: All tools + adapters |
| 245 | +- Testing: Unit + integration tests |
| 246 | +- Automation: Conductor workflow |
| 247 | +- Documentation: Complete coverage |
| 248 | + |
| 249 | +## 💡 Key Learnings |
| 250 | + |
| 251 | +### Technical |
| 252 | +1. **Type Hints**: Python 3.9 doesn't support `|` union syntax |
| 253 | +2. **A2A Endpoint**: Uses `/message/send` not `/tasks/send` |
| 254 | +3. **MCP SDK**: Strictly requires Python 3.10+ |
| 255 | +4. **Protocol Differences**: |
| 256 | + - A2A: Conversational, stateful, task-based |
| 257 | + - MCP: Tool-based, can be stateless, JSON-RPC |
| 258 | + |
| 259 | +### Workflow |
| 260 | +1. **Conductor Pattern**: Central `.env` + auto-copy = DX win |
| 261 | +2. **Integration Tests**: Real agents > mocks for protocol validation |
| 262 | +3. **Documentation**: Multiple guides for different use cases |
| 263 | +4. **Type Safety**: Pydantic + type hints catch errors early |
| 264 | + |
