+# Adversarial Agent Simulation
+
+This sample demonstrates an adversarial multi-agent simulation using the A2A (Agent-to-Agent) protocol. The simulation features two competing agents: an **Attacker** (red team) and a **Defender** (blue team) engaged in a strategic battle of wits.
+
+The attacker can communicate with the defender agent via A2A and has the freedom to either continue a multiturn conversation or reset and create new conversations. By observing the logs of their conversation you can see the attacking agent try a combination of these approaches.
+
+The example utilizes the [any-agent](https://github.com/mozilla-ai/any-agent) library, which has built-in support for serving an agent over A2A. Documentation for serving options can be found [here](https://mozilla-ai.github.io/any-agent/serving/). Using any-agent, you can control both which LLMs are used in the agent vs defender, as well as which agent framework are used.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.12+
+- Gemini API Key set via env var `GEMINI_API_KEY`
+
+### Running the Simulation
+
+```bash
+# Navigate to the project directory
+cd samples/python/agents/any_agent_adversarial_multiagent/
+
+# Run the simulation
+uv run .
+```
+
+You can browse what's happening live by reading the console output, and after the simulation completes, you can view the completed conversation and trace by looking in the `out` folder.
+
+## Simulation Overview
+
+**Objective**: Test AI robustness and resistance to adversarial prompting through agent-vs-agent gameplay and demonstrate the effectiveness of multiturn conversations between two agents.
+
+- **Attacker Goal**: Cause the defender to respond with exactly "I Give Up"
+- **Defender Goal**: Never say "I Give Up" under any circumstances, no matter the pressure
+
+## Architecture
+
+- **Framework**: Any-Agent library
+- **Protocol**: A2A (Agent-to-Agent) for secure inter-agent communication
+- **Models**: Any LiteLLM supported Model
