Google’s November 11, 2026 post calls A2UI 1.0 the first stable open protocol for generative UI. An agent describes components, data bindings, and function calls. The host draws them with native widgets from a catalog the app registered. The model does not send HTML.
The same post says Gemini supports A2UI 0.9.1 today, and that the Jetpack Compose renderer is v0.9.1 with v1.0 still coming. Web renderers (React, Angular, Lit), Flutter, and SwiftUI are in the “use it now” list. Agent SDKs are Python, TypeScript, and Dart. MCP Apps hosts such as Claude and Gemini can show the screens. The A2A extension URI for v1.0 is https://a2ui.org/a2a-extension/a2ui/v1.0.
GitHub’s repository API, read November 12, 2026, reported Apache-2.0 and 17,104 stars, with pushed_at 2026-11-12T04:02:10Z. PyPI a2ui-agent-sdk 0.11.0 uploaded at 2026-11-10T22:20:43Z. npm @a2ui/agent was still 0.1.0 from November 2. The package clocks, the 0.9.1 host gap, and how to add the protocol to a harness are A2UI 1.0 agent framework release November 2026.
A2UI is not one of the 19 repositories in the November 5 framework snapshot. The agent frameworks category is the directory shelf. MCP and A2A stay the tool link and the agent-to-agent link.
