serve(serving_config: MCPServingConfig) -> None

serve(serving_config: A2AServingConfig | None = None) -> None

Serve this agent using the protocol defined in the serving_config.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
serving_config	MCPServingConfig | A2AServingConfig | None	Configuration for serving the agent. If None, uses default A2AServingConfig. Must be an instance of A2AServingConfig or MCPServingConfig.	None

Raises:

Type	Description
ImportError	If the a2a dependencies are not installed and an A2AServingConfig is used.

Example

agent = AnyAgent.create("tinyagent", AgentConfig(...))
config = A2AServingConfig(port=8080, endpoint="/my-agent")
agent.serve(config)
