Three new protocols—MCP, A2A, and Google ADK—are poised to transform AI agent capabilities in production environments. While these protocols are technically advanced, their impact in East Africa hinges on the development of domain-specific implementations for critical sectors like health, agriculture, and water management. Currently, existing MCP implementations primarily serve already-coordinated markets in developed countries, leaving a gap in areas where coordination is genuinely broken. The East Africa coordination stack is now addressing this by developing 31 MCP servers for various domains, enabling agents to coordinate through A2A patterns and plan complex tasks with ADK, thereby bridging the architecture gap between powerful AI models and essential real-world data.
