+# Frontend A2A para o Agent Framework OCI
+
+Interface estática, sem build e sem dependências JavaScript de produção. Usa os
+endpoints A2A que já existem no pacote: pode falar com o template de backend
+ou com o Agent Gateway. O frontend nativo em `apps/agent_frontend` é preservado.
+
+## Experimentar sem OCI
+
+Na raiz do framework:
+
+```sh
+python -m pip install -e 'libs/agent_framework[a2a]' uvicorn
+python -m uvicorn examples.a2a_frontend_demo:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000
+```
+
+Abra **http://localhost:8000** e clique em **Conectar ao serviço**. O exemplo
+serve a tela e a API na mesma origem, sem precisar configurar CORS.
+
+A demonstração usa o **adaptador A2A e o SDK reais**, com a lógica de negócio
+simulada. Digite uma mensagem e acompanhe a tarefa. Comandos de demonstração:
+
+- `/confirmar`: aguarda sua resposta e retoma a mesma Task.
+- `/lento`: permite testar o botão de cancelamento.
+- `/erro`: demonstra uma Task que termina em falha.
+
+Se a porta 8000 estiver ocupada, altere a porta ao iniciar e informe o novo
+endereço no campo **Endereço do serviço**, ou use `?service=http://localhost:NOVA_PORTA`.
+
+## Usar com seu agente ou Gateway
+
+Habilite A2A no serviço, conforme `docs/A2A_ASSINCRONO.md`, e sirva este diretório:
+
+```sh
+python -m http.server 5173 --directory apps/agent_frontend_a2a
+```
+
+Abra **http://localhost:5173**. Não abra `index.html` como arquivo local, pois a
+interface usa módulos JavaScript e requisições HTTP.
+
+| Uso | Endereço do serviço | Destino na interface | Seleção carregada do Agent Card |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Template de agente | `http://localhost:8000` | Agente | Perfis de `agents.yaml` |
+| Agent Gateway | `http://localhost:8010` | Gateway | Backends do catálogo |
+
+Use **Seleção automática** para deixar a decisão com o serviço. No Gateway,
+um backend selecionado é enviado como `message.metadata.backend_id`. Um perfil
+opcional dentro dele pode ser informado em **Perfil do agente no backend**.
+O adaptador A2A encaminha a seleção ao roteador existente; os contratos nativos
+não são alterados.
+
+O serviço deve permitir a origem da interface em `CORS_ORIGINS`. O valor padrão
+do pacote já permite `http://localhost:5173`. Se mudar o host ou a porta,
+configure a origem exata, por exemplo:
+
+```dotenv
+CORS_ORIGINS=http://localhost:5173,http://127.0.0.1:5173
+ENABLE_A2A=true
+A2A_TASK_MODE=true
+```
+
+Para publicar com Docker:
+
+```sh
+docker build -t agent-frontend-a2a apps/agent_frontend_a2a
+docker run --rm -p 5173:80 agent-frontend-a2a
+```
+
+O navegador precisa alcançar o endereço informado no formulário. Para uso
+externo, informe a URL pública do backend/Gateway, não o nome interno do
+container. Uma interface HTTPS deve acessar um serviço HTTPS.
+
+## O que a interface oferece
+
+- Descoberta do Agent Card e escolha de versão automática ou explícita (1.0/0.3).
+- Envio de mensagem com retorno imediato de Task.
+- Acompanhamento por POST SSE com `SubscribeToTask`/`tasks/resubscribe`.
+- Recuperação por `GetTask`/`tasks/get` quando o fluxo termina ou cai.
+- Consulta periódica como alternativa ao streaming.
+- Cancelamento solicitado ao serviço, incluindo tarefas aguardando input.
+- Continuação de tarefas em input-required/auth-required.
+- Exibição de respostas diretas e dos artefatos de Tasks, com suporte aos
+  resultados estruturados de múltiplos agentes do framework.
+- Contexto de negócio opcional (cliente e contrato/pedido).
+- Identificadores da conversa/tarefa preservados em `sessionStorage` para
+  retomar após recarregar a mesma aba. O conteúdo do chat não é persistido.
+- Nova conversa independente, sem reaproveitar uma Task concluída.
+
+O frontend usa `fetch` para SSE, permitindo enviar os mesmos cabeçalhos de
+autenticação nas consultas e no acompanhamento. Em **Contexto e autenticação**,
+informe o nome e o valor completo do cabeçalho exigido pelo serviço, por
+exemplo `Authorization` / `Bearer ...`, ou `x-api-key` / valor da chave.
+Credenciais ficam somente na memória e precisam ser informadas novamente após
+recarregar. Não são gravadas em `sessionStorage` nem colocadas na URL.
+
+Nenhuma operação de envio é repetida automaticamente. Se a resposta do envio
+não chegar, a tela informa a incerteza, pois o serviço pode ter aceitado a
+mensagem. O botão **Retomar** consulta a mesma Task, quando seu ID é conhecido.
+Trocar conexão, tenant, perfil ou backend requer reconectar e inicia outra
+conversa quando a identidade da configuração mudou.
+
+## Limites herdados do serviço
+
+O frontend não transforma o armazenamento em memória em armazenamento durável.
+Uma Task perdida ao reiniciar o serviço não pode ser recuperada pela tela.
+O cancelamento local não desfaz efeitos externos já confirmados e não garante
+cancelar uma operação já aceita por um agente remoto.
+
+`auth-required` indica que a tarefa aguarda autorização, mas esta interface não
+implementa login OAuth nem aprovação externa automática. Realize o fluxo exigido
+pelo agente, atualize a credencial se necessário e retome a tarefa.
+
+Não há upload de arquivos, push notifications, gRPC ou emissão de tokens do LLM.
+A seleção de versão 0.3 é explícita quando o serviço publica um Agent Card 1.0
+mas também aceita o formato 0.3, como ocorre no adaptador do framework.
+
+## Testes
+
+Sem bibliotecas JavaScript adicionais, com Node.js 22 ou superior:
+
+```sh
+cd apps/agent_frontend_a2a
+node --test tests/client.test.js
+```
+
+Com a demonstração em execução:
+
+```sh
+A2A_DEMO_URL=http://localhost:8000 node --test tests/*.test.js
+```
+
+Os testes de integração exercitam o cliente JavaScript contra o SDK real do
+framework: A2A 1.0 e 0.3, envio, streaming, consulta, confirmação, cancelamento
+e falha. Os testes de interface também foram realizados em navegador local.

+# Agentes do framework com A2A assíncrono
+
+## O que foi implementado
+
+O agente criado a partir de `templates/agent_template_backend` pode expor o
+protocolo nativo e A2A no mesmo processo. O Agent Gateway também oferece a
+mesma fachada A2A. As duas fachadas usam o SDK oficial e suas operações de
+Tasks/SSE, com interoperabilidade A2A 1.0 e 0.3.
+
+```text
+Consumidor A2A ── Gateway A2A (Task)
+                    ├── agente nativo (/gateway/message)
+                    └── agente framework A2A (Task remota)
+
+Consumidor A2A ── agente framework A2A diretamente
+```
+
+O envio imediato devolve uma Task antes de terminar a operação de negócio.
+A execução continua após a resposta HTTP e também após a desconexão do SSE.
+O consumidor pode consultar o resultado ou se reconectar à tarefa em andamento.
+Os endpoints nativos conservam seu comportamento; `/gateway/message` continua
+aguardando o resultado, e o SSE nativo permanece separado do SSE A2A.
+
+## Habilitar no agente construído com o framework
+
+Na raiz do framework, instale a dependência opcional:
+
+```sh
+python -m pip install -e 'libs/agent_framework[a2a]' -r templates/agent_template_backend/requirements.txt
+```
+
+No ambiente do backend:
+
+```dotenv
+ENABLE_A2A=true
+A2A_TASK_MODE=true
+A2A_PUBLIC_URL=http://localhost:8000
+A2A_TASK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=240
+```
+
+Inicie o backend com suas configurações normais. Por exemplo, após preparar o
+`.env` e os arquivos de configuração do agente:
+
+```sh
+cd templates/agent_template_backend
+python -m uvicorn app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+```
+
+O endereço público real deve ser usado em `A2A_PUBLIC_URL`. A configuração de
+exemplo está em `.env.a2a.example`. Há também uma imagem opcional, construída
+na raiz do framework:
+
+```sh
+docker build -f templates/agent_template_backend/Dockerfile.a2a -t framework-agent-a2a .
+```
+
+Os perfis de `agents.yaml` são publicados como skills no Agent Card:
+`GET /.well-known/agent-card.json`. Use `message.metadata.agent_id` para escolher
+um perfil; sem ele, o backend mantém sua seleção padrão.
+
+## Registrar esse agente no Agent Gateway
+
+```yaml
+backends:
+  pedidos_a2a:
+    protocol: a2a
+    a2a_version: '1.0'
+    url: http://backend-pedidos:8000
+    a2a_rpc_path: /a2a
+    description: Consulta e acompanhamento de pedidos
+    keywords: [pedido, entrega, rastreamento]
+    default_agent_id: pedidos
+```
+
+No gateway, habilite `ENABLE_A2A=true`, `A2A_TASK_MODE=true` e configure seu próprio
+`A2A_PUBLIC_URL`. Para uma execução mais longa, ajuste os limites, por exemplo:
+`A2A_TASK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=300` e `BACKEND_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=270`, com o timeout do
+backend em 240 segundos. A duração efetiva é limitada pelo menor prazo aplicável.
+
+O gateway devolve sua própria Task imediatamente e consulta a Task remota até
+conclusão ou solicitação de input/autenticação. Eventos de status remoto são
+publicados como `a2a.backend.status`. Os IDs local e remoto podem ser distintos.
+O resultado nativo inclui `metadata.a2a_task_id` e `metadata.a2a_context_id` para
+correlação; o consumidor externo continua acompanhando o ID emitido pelo gateway.
+
+## Envio assíncrono A2A 1.0
+
+Envie um `POST /a2a` com `Content-Type: application/json` e
+`A2A-Version: 1.0`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+  "id": "request-1",
+  "method": "SendMessage",
+  "params": {
+    "configuration": {"returnImmediately": true},
+    "message": {
+      "messageId": "message-1",
+      "contextId": "conversation-123",
+      "role": "ROLE_USER",
+      "parts": [{"text": "Consulte meu pedido"}],
+      "metadata": {"agent_id": "pedidos", "tenant_id": "default"}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+A resposta contém `result.task.id`, `contextId` e um estado inicial como
+`TASK_STATE_SUBMITTED` ou `TASK_STATE_WORKING`. Guarde esse ID e consulte:
+
+```json
+{
+  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+  "id": "request-2",
+  "method": "GetTask",
+  "params": {"id": "ID_DA_TAREFA"}
+}
+```
+
+O resultado está em `result`. Quando `status.state` for `TASK_STATE_COMPLETED`,
+o conteúdo final estará em `artifacts[].parts`. Há uma parte de texto e uma
+parte `data` com a resposta original do framework.
+
+Sem `returnImmediately: true`, o envio aguarda o estado final ou interrompido,
+retornando uma Task no mesmo formato. Para manter o comportamento da primeira
+entrega A2A, que retornava Message, configure `A2A_TASK_MODE=false`; nesse modo,
+streaming fica desabilitado e não há Tasks locais.
+
+## Streaming e reconexão
+
+Para enviar e acompanhar, use `SendStreamingMessage` no lugar de `SendMessage`
+com os mesmos parâmetros. A resposta tem `Content-Type: text/event-stream`.
+Cada campo `data:` contém uma resposta JSON-RPC. Os eventos contêm:
+
+1. A Task inicial.
+2. Atualizações de status: submitted/working e eventos de progresso.
+3. O artefato de resposta.
+4. O estado completed, failed, canceled, input-required ou auth-required.
+
+O backend do framework publica marcos como `flow.start`, `session.upserted`,
+`workflow.started`, `workflow.completed` e `message.responded`, quando o fluxo
+passa por essas etapas. Eles aparecem em
+`result.statusUpdate.metadata.framework_event`, com os dados correspondentes
+em `framework_payload`. Isso não implica transmissão de tokens do LLM.
+
+Para se reconectar a uma Task em andamento:
+
+```json
+{
+  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+  "id": "request-3",
+  "method": "SubscribeToTask",
+  "params": {"id": "ID_DA_TAREFA"}
+}
+```
+
+A reconexão entrega o estado atual e os eventos seguintes; não há promessa de
+replay de todos os eventos perdidos. Se a tarefa já terminou, consulte `GetTask`.
+
+## Cancelamento, falhas e continuidade
+
+`CancelTask`, com `params.id`, cancela a execução local em andamento. O SDK
+interrompe a coroutine e registra `TASK_STATE_CANCELED`. Isso não desfaz efeitos
+já confirmados em ferramentas ou sistemas externos. Quando o gateway está
+consultando um agente remoto, parar a tarefa local não garante cancelar a
+operação que já foi aceita pelo serviço remoto.
+
+Exceções e expiração de `A2A_TASK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` resultam em
+`TASK_STATE_FAILED`, consultável depois, com mensagem genérica. Detalhes internos
+permanecem nos logs do servidor.
+
+Para uma interação que exige nova entrada, um handler pode retornar
+`metadata.a2a_task_state: "input-required"` ou `"auth-required"`. O consumidor
+envia outra mensagem com o mesmo `taskId` e `contextId`. A tarefa é retomada;
+uma tarefa concluída não pode ser reexecutada. O adaptador de saída preserva a
+continuidade de tarefas remotas nesses estados.
+
+Os workflows nativos que não declaram esse estado concluem uma Task por turno;
+a conversa continua com uma nova Task e o mesmo `contextId`, usando as sessões
+e memórias já existentes no framework.
+

+| `SubscribeToTask` | `tasks/resubscribe` |
+| `CancelTask` | `tasks/cancel` |
+
+Em 0.3, `result` contém diretamente a Task, sem o envelope `task`. Os estados
+usam `submitted`, `working`, `completed`, `failed`, etc.
+
+## Armazenamento e autenticação
+
+O padrão usa o TaskStore em memória do SDK. Tarefas e resultados são perdidos
+quando o processo reinicia. Para múltiplos workers/réplicas, use afinidade de
+requisições ao mesmo processo durante a execução ou configure armazenamento e
+coordenação compartilhados. Um TaskStore persistente, sozinho, não torna a
+execução retomável após falha. As funções `install_a2a` e `install_backend_a2a`
+aceitam `task_store` para integração com um armazenamento do SDK.
+
+O backend opcional reutiliza `AGENT_AUTH_*`; o gateway usa
+`AGENT_GATEWAY_AUTH_*`. A identidade autenticada pelo middleware define o dono
+das Tasks, incluindo consultas e cancelamento. Usuários anônimos compartilham
+o escopo anônimo. `tenant_id` em metadata continua sendo dado do pedido, não
+credencial nem isolamento de autorização. Clientes que compartilham uma mesma
+credencial/principal compartilham o escopo de tarefas.
+
+`A2A_SECURITY_SCHEMES` e `A2A_SECURITY` documentam os mecanismos no Agent Card,
+como descrito no guia geral. SSE está habilitado no modo de Tasks;
+notificações push e gRPC continuam fora desta implementação.
+
+## Validação
+
+A suíte inclui envio imediato enquanto o handler permanece bloqueado, polling,
+streaming com progresso e resultado, cancelamento, falhas, timeout, retomada,
+separação entre identidades autenticadas e gateway chamando um backend A2A real
+em aplicação local. Há também testes HTTP em `127.0.0.1` que verificam a chegada
+do primeiro evento antes da conclusão e reconexão após desconexão.
+
+```sh
+python -m pip install pytest pytest-asyncio uvicorn
+PYTHONPATH=libs/agent_framework/src pytest \
+  tests/test_a2a_interoperability.py tests/test_a2a_async_tasks.py \
+  tests/test_a2a_http_streaming.py \
+  tests/unit/test_sse.py tests/unit/test_sse_replay_dedup.py \
+  tests/unit/test_authentication.py tests/unit/test_authentication_policies.py -q
+```
+
+Os testes não acessam OCI nem serviços de negócio externos. Em ambientes sem
+permissão para abrir portas locais, execute o teste HTTP em um ambiente que
+permita bind em loopback.

+e os comandos de execução com o backend ou Gateway. O frontend nativo continua

+# Integração A2A no Agent Framework OCI
+
+## Decisão de arquitetura
+
+O Agent Gateway existente passa a ter uma fachada A2A opcional. Não é necessário
+manter um segundo roteador, duplicar o supervisor ou migrar os agentes atuais.
+
+```text
+Consumidor atual ── /gateway/message ─┐
+                                    ├─ Agent Gateway / supervisor ─┬─ backend native
+Consumidor A2A ──── /a2a ─────────────┘                             └─ backend a2a
+```
+
+O backend nativo continua recebendo `{channel, payload, agent_id, tenant_id}`.
+A ausência de `protocol` no catálogo mantém `native`. A2A fica desativado por
+padrão; o SDK só é importado ao habilitar a fachada ou selecionar um backend A2A.
+Não foi alterado o runtime dos agentes, os workflows, os canais ou os MCPs.
+
+A entrada usa A2A **1.0 / JSON-RPC**, SDK oficial `a2a-sdk==1.2.2`, com adaptação
+0.3 disponibilizada pelo próprio SDK. Agentes externos podem ser registrados
+com `a2a_version: '1.0'` ou `'0.3'`; não há detecção heurística de versão.
+
+## Ativação local
+
+Na raiz do framework:
+
+```sh
+python -m pip install -e 'libs/agent_framework[a2a]' -r apps/agent_gateway/requirements.txt
+export ENABLE_A2A=true
+export A2A_PUBLIC_URL=https://meu-gateway.example
+export BACKENDS_CONFIG_PATH="$PWD/apps/agent_gateway/config/backends.a2a.example.yaml"
+python -m uvicorn app.main:app --app-dir apps/agent_gateway --port 8010
+```
+
+Edite primeiro as URLs do catálogo de exemplo. Para agentes externos, informe o
+endpoint JSON-RPC anunciado no Agent Card como `url` + `a2a_rpc_path`.
+Credenciais ficam em variáveis de ambiente referenciadas por `a2a_headers_env`.
+Os valores não são publicados em `/backends`.
+
+A imagem opcional pode ser construída a partir da raiz:
+
+```sh
+docker build -f apps/agent_gateway/Dockerfile.a2a -t agent-gateway-a2a .
+```
+
+Defina `A2A_PUBLIC_URL` no ambiente do container e monte o catálogo de backends.
+A imagem e os comandos anteriores de implantação continuam disponíveis.
+
+## Descoberta e chamada
+
+O Agent Card fica em `GET /.well-known/agent-card.json`; as skills são derivadas
+dos backends habilitados. As mensagens chegam em `POST /a2a`.
+
+Exemplo A2A 1.0, com cabeçalho `A2A-Version: 1.0`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
+  "id": "request-1",
+  "method": "SendMessage",
+  "params": {
+    "message": {
+      "messageId": "message-1",
+      "contextId": "conversation-123",
+      "role": "ROLE_USER",
+      "parts": [
+        {"text": "Quero consultar minha fatura"},
+        {"data": {"customer_id": "123"}}
+      ],
+      "metadata": {"tenant_id": "default"}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+No modo de tarefas (padrão), a resposta fica em `result.task`. O resultado de
+negócio está em `artifacts[].parts`, com texto e uma parte `data` contendo a
+resposta do framework. Com `A2A_TASK_MODE=false`, permanece em `result.message`. Reutilize `contextId` nos próximos turnos. No modo 0.3,
+use o cabeçalho `A2A-Version: 0.3`, método `message/send`, role `user` e os
+campos `kind` da especificação 0.3; o resultado é uma Task diretamente
+(ou Message com `A2A_TASK_MODE=false`).
+
+Partes `data` devem conter objetos e são incorporadas ao payload de negócio.
+A identidade da sessão e o texto do protocolo prevalecem sobre esses dados.
+Arquivos recebidos pela fachada são rejeitados explicitamente.
+
+## Conversas, tarefas e limites
+
+- A fachada cria **Tasks A2A** e permite envio imediato, consulta, cancelamento
+  e streaming SSE. `A2A_TASK_MODE=false` mantém o modo anterior de Messages.
+  Consulte [A2A assíncrono](A2A_ASSINCRONO.md) para os exemplos completos.
+- O adaptador de saída aceita Message ou Task; consulta `GetTask`/`tasks/get`
+  enquanto o agente está trabalhando, dentro de um prazo total configurável
+  por `BACKEND_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`. Não repete automaticamente operações de envio.
+- Tarefas que pedem input/autenticação preservam estado e identidade para o
+  próximo turno. Tarefas concluídas não são reutilizadas.
+- A continuidade remota é guardada no processo, por tenant/backend/sessão,
+  com validade de uma hora e limite de 10 mil entradas. Em múltiplas réplicas,
+  use afinidade de sessão ou implemente armazenamento compartilhado antes de
+  depender dessa continuidade. Reiniciar o processo limpa esse cache.
+- `metadata.a2a_result` preserva o resultado remoto, incluindo dados/artefatos;
+  `a2a_context_id`, `a2a_task_id` e `a2a_state` permitem inspeção e continuidade
+  explícita no payload quando necessário.
+- Streaming SSE está disponível no modo de tarefas. Push notifications e gRPC
+  não são oferecidos. O proxy de eventos nativo não é utilizado para agentes
+  A2A: use `SendStreamingMessage`/`SubscribeToTask` e seus equivalentes 0.3.
+- O template `templates/agent_template_backend` também expõe A2A diretamente
+  quando `ENABLE_A2A=true`, sem passar pelo gateway global.
+
+## Autenticação
+
+As rotas A2A compartilham o middleware de autenticação já instalado no gateway
+(`AGENT_GATEWAY_AUTH_*`). Habilitar A2A não habilita autenticação automaticamente.
+O tenant em metadata mantém a semântica atual do framework: é dado do pedido,
+não uma autorização concedida pelo protocolo. Políticas de acesso a tenants
+continuam sendo responsabilidade da configuração de autenticação/autorização.
+
+Quando houver autenticação, declare-a também no Agent Card, por exemplo:
+
+```sh
+export A2A_SECURITY_SCHEMES='{"gatewayBearer":{"httpAuthSecurityScheme":{"scheme":"bearer"}}}'
+export A2A_SECURITY='[{"gatewayBearer":[]}]'
+```
+
+Essas declarações documentam o mecanismo; quem verifica as credenciais é o
+middleware. Se desejar descoberta pública, adicione somente o caminho do Agent
+Card à configuração de caminhos públicos; `/a2a` permanece protegido.
+
+## Validação
+
+Testes em `tests/test_a2a_interoperability.py` cobrem os dois formatos de entrada,
+o contrato nativo, os dois formatos de saída, polling, erros JSON-RPC,
+continuidade de tarefas, separação entre tenants e limite de tempo.
+
+```sh
+PYTHONPATH=libs/agent_framework/src pytest tests/test_a2a_interoperability.py -q
+```
+
+Validação com transportes HTTP simulados e aplicação FastAPI local; não substitui
+um teste de integração com os serviços OCI e agentes externos da implantação.
