Summary of Changes

Hello @lkawka, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the security and flexibility of the A2A SDK by introducing agent card signing and verification, allowing clients to cryptographically validate the authenticity of agent metadata. It also refines client-side message sending with per-call configuration options and improves server-side request context management through customizable ID generation. Additionally, several minor bug fixes and documentation improvements contribute to overall stability and clarity.

Highlights

• Agent Card Signing & Verification: Implemented JSON Web Signature (JWS) based signing and verification for Agent Cards, enhancing security and trust in agent interactions. This includes a new signing.py module, PyJWT dependency, and integration across client transports and card resolution logic.
• Per-Call Message Configuration: Added the ability to override message sending behavior (e.g., history length, blocking, accepted output modes) on a per-call basis in BaseClient.send_message, providing greater flexibility for client interactions.
• Custom ID Generation: Introduced an IDGenerator interface and a UUIDGenerator implementation, allowing for customizable task and context ID generation within the SimpleRequestContextBuilder on the server side.
• Improved Error Handling: Enhanced streaming error handling in JSON-RPC and REST transports to more effectively catch and propagate httpx.HTTPStatusError exceptions, leading to more robust client-server communication.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a major feature for agent card signing and verification using JWT, along with several other improvements. The changes include adding a new signing utility, updating dependencies, and modifying client transports and factories to support signature verification. Additionally, there are enhancements to configuration handling, error management in streaming, and several minor typo and grammar fixes. The new functionality is well-tested with new unit and integration tests.

My review includes a critical fix for a potential data loss bug in the new canonicalization helper function and several minor suggestions for typo fixes and code cleanup.

[gemini-code-assist]

The condition if v to filter dictionary values will incorrectly remove falsy values such as 0 or False. This could lead to unintended data loss during canonicalization. To fix this, you should explicitly check if the value is not None.

Suggested change

	return {k: v for k, v in cleaned_dict.items() if v}
	return {k: v for k, v in cleaned_dict.items() if v is not None}

[gemini-code-assist]

Similar to the dictionary filtering, the condition if v for list filtering will incorrectly remove falsy values like 0 or False. This should be changed to if v is not None to avoid data loss.

Suggested change

	return [v for v in cleaned_list if v]
	return [v for v in cleaned_list if v is not None]

[gemini-code-assist]

This change adds a comma for better readability, which is a good grammatical correction.

[gemini-code-assist]

The imports from a2a.types are duplicated. You can combine them into a single block for better readability.

from a2a.types import (
    AgentCard,
    AgentCapabilities,
    AgentSkill,
    AgentCardSignature,
)
