6//! Transport abstraction for A2A client requests.
7//!
8//! The [`Transport`] trait decouples protocol logic from HTTP mechanics.
9//! [`A2aClient`] holds a `Box<dyn Transport>` and calls
10//! [`Transport::send_request`] for non-streaming methods and
11//! [`Transport::send_streaming_request`] for SSE-streaming methods.
12//!
13//! Two implementations ship with this crate:
14//!
15//! | Type | Protocol | When to use |
16//! |---|---|---|
17//! | [`JsonRpcTransport`] | JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST | Default; most widely supported |
18//! | [`RestTransport`] | HTTP REST (verbs + paths) | When the agent card requires it |
19//!
20//! [`A2aClient`]: crate::A2aClient
21//! [`JsonRpcTransport`]: jsonrpc::JsonRpcTransport
22//! [`RestTransport`]: rest::RestTransport
