Write, review, debug, and explain code. Use when the user asks about programming, needs code written, wants a code review, or has a bug to investigate.
Extract structured data from documents, images, and unstructured text. Use when the user needs tables, key-value pairs, or specific fields pulled from content.
Analyze documents, extract structured data, and answer questions about uploaded files. Use when the user uploads a document, asks about file contents, or requests data extraction.
General-purpose AI assistant for everyday tasks. Use as the default skill when no specialized skill matches the user's request.
Search the web, summarize findings, and answer research questions. Use when the user asks about current events, needs web research, or wants information from online sources.
Interactive multi-surface A2UI demo. Renders a form to the workspace pane; user submits a value via a Button action; the agent reads the structured action context on the next turn without re-rendering. Demonstrates the discrete-action half of the v6.2.0 sprint 2.10 surface→agent loop — sibling of the read-only workspace-demo.

Vendored offline specs for the platform's four-protocol stack. Use these instead of fetching from external sources so design docs are written from current spec versions, not stale training data.
| Need | Use |
|---|---|
| Stream text + tool calls from agent to frontend | AG-UI — RunAgentInput → SSE events |
| Render structured UI (tables, cards, forms) inside the chat | A2UI — send_a2ui_json_to_client tool, declarative JSON |
| Embed an interactive app in a sandboxed iframe | MCP Apps — load_mcp_app tool, postMessage protocol |
| Discover agents on other services | A2A — agent card, /.well-known/agent.json |
| Connect external tools to the agent | MCP — McpToolset, MCP server over stdio or SSE |
| Define a reusable skill that other agents can load | Agent Skills spec — SKILL.md frontmatter |
AG-UI vs A2UI: AG-UI is the transport (streaming protocol between agent and browser). A2UI is the rendering layer (what the agent returns inside an AG-UI turn to get structured UI). You need both: AG-UI carries the A2UI payload.
A2UI vs MCP Apps: A2UI is stateless declarative rendering (good for data tables, readonly forms, charts). MCP Apps are stateful sandboxed iframes (good for interactive editors, authenticated apps, maps). A2UI renders inside the message bubble; MCP Apps render in the workspace panel.
MCP (tools) vs MCP Apps (iframes): MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the tool-invocation protocol — the agent calls a tool via MCP. MCP Apps is a completely separate concept: a sandboxed iframe that an agent can open as a UI surface. They share "MCP" in the name for historical reasons.
AG-UI vs A2A: AG-UI is user↔agent communication (frontend → agent). A2A (Agent-to-Agent) is agent↔agent discovery and delegation. A2A uses a static "agent card" served at /.well-known/agent.json.

Mixing app_name with skill IDs: The ADK app_name is always APP_NAME = "aitana_platform". Never use a skill ID or agent name as app_name in session service calls.
Rendering A2UI in an MCP App and vice versa: A2UI JSON goes through send_a2ui_json_to_client → AG-UI → useAGUIAgent. MCP Apps are opened via load_mcp_app tool → workspace panel. They are separate rendering paths.
postMessage envelope in MCP Apps: The iframe and parent window communicate via a specific { type, payload } envelope over window.postMessage. The sandbox's allow-same-origin flag is required for ui/update-model-context. See mcp-apps-spec-2026-01-26.md for the exact shape.
CSP for MCP App iframes: The sandbox URL must serve its own CSP headers. The sandbox attribute on the iframe must include allow-scripts allow-forms allow-same-origin. Missing allow-same-origin breaks postMessage cross-frame reads.
AG-UI forwardedProps vs state: body.state mirrors STATE_SNAPSHOT — it's one event behind per turn. Per-turn signals (current doc context, surface state snapshot) go on forwardedProps, not state.
