+# A2A Python SDK — Samples
+
+This directory contains runnable examples demonstrating how to build and interact with an A2A-compliant agent using the Python SDK.
+
+## Contents
+
+| File | Role | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `hello_world_agent.py` | **Server** | A2A agent server |
+| `cli.py` | **Client** | Interactive terminal client |
+
+The samples are designed to work together out of the box: the agent listens on `http://127.0.0.1:41241`, which is the default URL used by the client.
+---
+
+## `hello_world_agent.py` — Agent Server
+
+Implements an A2A agent that responds to simple greeting messages (e.g., "hello", "how are you", "bye") with text replies, simulating a 1-second processing delay.
+
+Demonstrates:
+- Subclassing `AgentExecutor` and implementing `execute()` / `cancel()`
+- Publishing streaming status updates and artifacts via `TaskUpdater`
+- Exposing all three transports in both protocol versions (v1.0 and v0.3 compat) simultaneously:
+  - **JSON-RPC** (v1.0 and v0.3) at `http://127.0.0.1:41241/a2a/jsonrpc`
+  - **HTTP+JSON (REST)** (v1.0 and v0.3) at `http://127.0.0.1:41241/a2a/rest`
+  - **gRPC v1.0** on port `50051`
+  - **gRPC v0.3 (compat)** on port `50052`
+- Serving the agent card at `http://127.0.0.1:41241/.well-known/agent-card.json`
+
+**Run:**
+
+```bash
+uv run python samples/hello_world_agent.py
+```
+
+---
+
+## `cli.py` — Client
+
+An interactive terminal client with full visibility into the streaming event flow. Each `TaskStatusUpdate` and `TaskArtifactUpdate` event is printed as it arrives.
+
+Features:
+- Transport selection via `--transport` flag (`JSONRPC`, `HTTP+JSON`, `GRPC`)
+- Session management (`context_id` persisted across messages, `task_id` per task)
+- Graceful error handling for HTTP and gRPC failures
+
+**Run:**
+
+```bash
+# Connect to the local hello_world_agent (default):
+uv run python samples/cli.py
+
+# Connect to a different URL, using gRPC:
+uv run python samples/cli.py --url http://192.168.1.10:41241 --transport GRPC
+```
+
+Then type a message like `hello` and press Enter.
+
+Type `/quit` or `/exit` to stop, or press `Ctrl+C`.
