Problem Description

Feature Request: Implement Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Communication Support

Background

Open-WebUI currently provides an excellent interface for human-to-AI interactions. However, as AI ecosystems evolve, there's growing need for agent-to-agent communication capabilities that would enable more complex workflows and automation.

Feature Description

I propose adding Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication support to Open-WebUI, allowing:

  • Multiple AI agents to communicate with each other within the same conversation
  • Automatic routing of messages between specialized agents
  • Configuration of agent roles, capabilities, and communication protocols
  • Observation of multi-agent conversations by human users
  • Optional human intervention in agent conversations

Desired Solution you'd like

Use Cases

  1. Collaborative Problem Solving: Multiple specialized agents working together on complex problems (e.g., a research agent collaborating with a coding agent)
  2. Workflow Automation: Sequential processing by different agents (e.g., one agent summarizes content, another translates it)
  3. Simulated Debates: Agents with different perspectives discussing topics
  4. Training and Education: Demonstrating reasoning processes through agent discussions

Technical Considerations

  • Interface for defining agent relationships and communication paths
  • Message attribution and clear indication of which agent is speaking
  • Methods to initiate, pause, or terminate agent-to-agent conversations
  • Logging and history of agent interactions

Alternatives Considered

Benefits

  • Enables more powerful workflows beyond single-agent capabilities
  • Reduces human input requirements for multi-step processes
  • Creates opportunities for novel applications within Open-WebUI
  • Positions Open-WebUI at the forefront of multi-agent AI interfaces

I believe this addition would significantly enhance Open-WebUI's capabilities and appeal to users working with complex AI workflows. Would be happy to discuss implementation details or provide additional use cases if helpful.
