// ── ProtocolBinding ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

/// Protocol binding identifier.
///
/// In v1.0, protocol bindings are free-form strings rather than a fixed
/// enum; the spec's canonical values are `"JSONRPC"`, `"GRPC"`, and
/// `"HTTP+JSON"`. The legacy `"REST"` spelling is still accepted when
/// matching agent-card interfaces, but cards should advertise the
/// canonical name.
pub const BINDING_JSONRPC: &str = "JSONRPC";

/// HTTP+JSON protocol binding (spec name for the REST transport).
pub const BINDING_HTTP_JSON: &str = "HTTP+JSON";

/// REST protocol binding (legacy alias for [`BINDING_HTTP_JSON`]).
pub const BINDING_REST: &str = "REST";

/// gRPC protocol binding.
pub const BINDING_GRPC: &str = "GRPC";

// ── TlsConfig ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

/// TLS configuration for the HTTP client.
///
/// When TLS is disabled, the client only supports plain HTTP (`http://` URLs).
/// Enable the `tls-rustls` feature to support HTTPS.

///
/// A2A's `AgentInterface.url` for the gRPC binding is a gRPC *target*
/// (`"hostname:port"`, per the proto's field comment since A2A `cfc9d34`),
/// not a URL: gRPC names carry no scheme, and whether the channel is TLS is
/// a property of the channel, not of the name. The official SDKs leave that
/// choice to the caller (Python: a `grpc_channel_factory`; the A2A project's
/// own Rust SDK: plaintext unless a rustls config is supplied). This SDK makes
/// the choice explicit and defaults to the safe one.
///
/// An address that already carries `http://` or `https://` is used as-is; this
/// policy applies only to bare `host[:port]` addresses.
