# Universal A2A & MCP Tool Discovery, Safe-Proxy & Swarm Router

> Universal A2A & MCP Tool Discovery, Safe-Proxy & Swarm Router is a paid API for AI agents from alpha-stream.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Searches an index of 500+ MCP servers and A2A tools by capability query, returning relevant endpoints with token-compressed results and prompt-injection firewall protection.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability alpha-stream-agentdiet-dev-universal-a2a-mcp-tool-discovery-safe-92bd6947
```

Example prompt: Search the agentdiet tool index for MCP servers that can do GitHub security auditing — I need to find the best available tool for scanning repos.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to dynamically discover which MCP servers or A2A tools are available for a given capability, rather than hardcoding tool integrations. Ideal for meta-agent orchestration, swarm routing, or when building agents that need to self-select the right downstream tool at runtime. Prefer over manual tool registries when you need broad coverage (500+ tools), token-efficient responses, and built-in prompt-injection protection.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string returns validation error
- No matching tools found for niche or obscure capability queries
- Endpoint URL verification may fail if the remote server is offline
- Rate limiting or payment required (HTTP 402) if call quota exceeded
- Malformed query may return generic or irrelevant results

## How this service works

Single-connection meta-router indexing 500+ MCP servers & A2A tools with 85% token compression and Prompt-Guard firewall. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://alpha-stream.agentdiet.dev/v1/tool-search)

## Output

Returns a list of matching MCP servers or A2A tools relevant to the query, with token-compressed metadata (85% compression), capability descriptions, endpoint URLs, and safety status from the Prompt-Guard firewall. Response is a JSON object with ranked tool results.
