AgentAnycast
A P2P sidecar daemon that lets AI agents communicate directly across networks without central servers. It runs locally and exposes gRPC to language SDKs, handling encrypted A2A protocol messages over libp2p with automatic mDNS discovery on LANs. The MCP interface gives Claude access to 16 operations including sending tasks to agents by skill name (anycast routing), querying the P2P network, and managing local agent identity. You'd use this when you want agents to collaborate peer to peer rather than through HTTP APIs, especially in local networks or when you need offline message queuing. It includes an HTTP bridge mode for translating between traditional REST endpoints and the P2P mesh, plus optional NATS transport for hybrid topologies.

Readme
AgentAnycast Node
The core daemon powering AgentAnycast's P2P agent network.
AgentAnycast Node (agentanycastd) is a sidecar daemon that runs on each machine, providing P2P networking, end-to-end encryption, and A2A protocol routing. Language SDKs (Python, TypeScript) communicate with it over gRPC.
Fully decentralized. On a local network, agents discover each other via mDNS with zero configuration. For cross-network communication, deploy your own relay with a single command.
