+## A2A (Agent2Agent Protocol)
+
+PraisonAI supports the [A2A Protocol](https://a2a-protocol.org) for agent-to-agent communication, enabling your agents to be discovered and collaborate with other AI agents.
+
+### A2A Server (Expose Agent as A2A Server)
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent, A2A
+from fastapi import FastAPI
+
+# Create an agent with tools
+def search_web(query: str) -> str:
+    """Search the web for information."""
+    return f"Results for: {query}"
+
+agent = Agent(
+    name="Research Assistant",
+    role="Research Analyst",
+    goal="Help users research topics",
+    tools=[search_web]
+)
+
+# Expose as A2A Server
+a2a = A2A(agent=agent, url="http://localhost:8000/a2a")
+
+app = FastAPI()
+app.include_router(a2a.get_router())
+
+# Run: uvicorn app:app --reload
+# Agent Card: GET /.well-known/agent.json
+# Status: GET /status
+```
+
+### A2A Features
+| Feature | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| Agent Card | JSON metadata for agent discovery |
+| Skills Extraction | Auto-generate skills from tools |
+| Task Management | Stateful task lifecycle |
+| Streaming | SSE streaming for real-time updates |

+## Overview
+This skill enables thorough code review with focus on:
+- Code quality and readability
+- Potential bugs and edge cases
+- Performance considerations
+- Security vulnerabilities
+- Best practices adherence
+
+## Instructions
+
+When reviewing code:
+
+1. **Read the code carefully** - Understand the purpose and flow
+2. **Check for bugs** - Look for null checks, edge cases, error handling
+3. **Evaluate readability** - Variable names, comments, structure
+4. **Consider performance** - Time/space complexity, unnecessary operations
+5. **Security review** - Input validation, injection risks, data exposure
+6. **Suggest improvements** - Provide actionable recommendations
+
+## Output Format
+
+Structure your review as:
+- Summary: Brief overview of the code
+- Issues: List of problems found (severity: high/medium/low)
+- Suggestions: Recommended improvements
+- Positive aspects: What's done well

+# PDF Processing Skill
+
+## Overview
+
+This skill enables agents to process PDF documents, extract text content, and analyze the information within them.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Activate this skill when:
+- User asks to read or analyze a PDF file
+- User needs to extract text from a PDF
+- User wants to summarize a PDF document
+- User needs to search for information within a PDF
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. First, verify the PDF file exists at the specified path
+2. Use appropriate tools to read the PDF content
+3. Extract text while preserving structure where possible
+4. For large PDFs, process in chunks to manage context
+5. Summarize or analyze based on user's specific request
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Always confirm the file path before processing
+- Handle encrypted PDFs gracefully with appropriate error messages
+- For scanned PDFs, note that OCR may be required
+- Preserve important formatting like tables and lists

+PraisonAI Agents - Comprehensive Performance Benchmark
+======================================================================
+
+This benchmark measures:
+  1. Agent instantiation time (how fast an agent object is created)
+  2. Memory footprint (how much memory an agent uses)
+
+Methodology:
+  - 10 warmup runs (not measured)
+  - 1000 measured iterations
+  - tracemalloc for memory measurement
+  - Baseline subtraction for accuracy
+
+Frameworks available:
+  - PraisonAI: ✅
+  - Agno: ✅
+  - PydanticAI: ✅
+  - OpenAI Agents SDK: ✅
+  - LangGraph: ✅
+  - CrewAI: ✅
