* feat(a2a): link follow-up messages via reference_task_ids Track the task_id from A2A responses (task, status_update, artifact_update, and message payloads) on session.state and include it as reference_task_ids on subsequent outgoing messages. This enables remote agents to correlate follow-up messages as task refinements per the A2A spec. Resolves #5938 Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * feat(a2a): add A2AAgentSession for typed protocol state tracking Introduce A2AAgentSession (subclass of AgentSession) with context_id, task_id, and task_state properties. This follows the DurableAgentSession pattern and mirrors the .NET A2AAgentSession design. - Track task_id, context_id, and task_state from all response payload types - Validate context_id consistency (raise on mismatch) - Auto-assign server-generated context_id when not set - Only A2AAgentSession gets reference tracking (no state dict fallback) - Plain AgentSession continues to work without reference tracking - Add serialization support (to_dict/from_dict) - Export via agent_framework.a2a and agent_framework_a2a Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * style: remove unnecessary string annotation (pyupgrade) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: use AgentSession.from_dict for state deserialization Avoids importing private _deserialize_state, matching the DurableAgentSession pattern. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * fix: track context_id from message payloads in A2AAgentSession Previously, context_id was only captured from task, status_update, and artifact_update payloads. Message-only responses (which carry context_id but may lack task_id) were silently lost. This fix: - Captures msg.context_id in the message handler - Persists session state when either last_task_id or last_context_id is present (not only when task_id is truthy) - Only updates task_id/task_state when a task_id was actually returned - Adds a test for message-only context_id tracking Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * addressed comments * Gate status content to INPUT_REQUIRED/terminal states (match .NET) Match .NET's GetUserInputRequests pattern: only emit TaskStatusUpdateEvent message content when state is INPUT_REQUIRED or terminal. Intermediate status text (WORKING, SUBMITTED) is no longer surfaced to callers. When state is INPUT_REQUIRED, set additional_properties['input_required'] = True so callers can distinguish input requests from final responses. Closes #5937 Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Address review: remove message task_id tracking, defensive fallbacks, and input_required flag - Do not track task_id from Message payloads (simple interactions without task tracking) - Remove 'or last_task_id' fallback from status_update and artifact_update handlers (spec guarantees task_id is always set) - Remove additional_properties['input_required'] flag (content gating to INPUT_REQUIRED/terminal states is the signal itself) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

History
Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework A2A
Please install this package via pip:
pip install agent-framework-a2a --pre
A2A Agent Integration
The A2A agent integration enables communication with remote A2A-compliant agents using the standardized A2A protocol. This allows your Agent Framework applications to connect to agents running on different platforms, languages, or services.
A2AAgent (Client)
The A2AAgent class is a client that wraps an A2A Client to connect the Agent Framework with external A2A-compliant agents.
from agent_framework.a2a import A2AAgent
# Connect to a remote A2A agent
a2a_agent = A2AAgent(url="http://remote-agent/a2a")
response = await a2a_agent.run("Hello!")
A2AExecutor (Hosting)
The A2AExecutor class bridges local AI agents built with the agent_framework library to the A2A protocol, allowing them to be hosted and accessed by other A2A-compliant clients.
from agent_framework.a2a import A2AExecutor
from a2a.server.apps import A2AStarletteApplication
from a2a.server.request_handlers import DefaultRequestHandler
from a2a.server.tasks import InMemoryTaskStore
# Create an A2A executor for your agent
executor = A2AExecutor(agent=my_agent)
# Set up the request handler and server application
request_handler = DefaultRequestHandler(
agent_executor=executor,
task_store=InMemoryTaskStore(),
)
app = A2AStarletteApplication(
agent_card=my_agent_card,
http_handler=request_handler,
).build()
Basic Usage Example
See the A2A agent examples which demonstrate:
- Connecting to remote A2A agents
- Hosting local agents via A2A protocol
- Sending messages and receiving responses
- Handling different content types (text, files, data)
- Streaming responses and real-time interaction
