jsonrpc_peer.rs

1//! The A2A v1.0 `BridgePeer` adapter.
2//!
3//! Posts raw JSON-RPC envelopes to an A2A agent's
4//! the `jsonrpc_path` argument to [`with_paths`](crate::adapters::secondary::a2a::A2aClient::with_paths) and returns raw
5//! JSON-RPC envelopes back, so the cross-protocol bridge
6//! can drive the agent through the codec without first
7//! deserialising every call into a typed A2A request.
8//!
9//! # Why this is a wrapper, not a `BridgePeer` impl on `A2aClient`
10//!
11//! [`A2aClient`](crate::adapters::secondary::a2a::client::A2aClient) is the typed client: it deserialises every
12//! reply into a library-defined A2A response type and refuses
13//! methods the library does not model. A bridge peer is the
14//! *untyped* shape the bridge's IR works with, and a bridge
15//! that can only forward methods the library already
16//! modelled would be a bridge that cannot be extended with a
17//! new method without a library release.
18//!
19//! The two are related but not interchangeable. `A2aClient`
20//! exists for consumers who want the typed shape; this peer
21//! exists for the cross-protocol bridge, where the bridge
22//! does the deserialising the IR needs and the agent is
23//! treated as a wire-level peer.
24//!
25//! # Why the peer has its own `reqwest::Client` and not an `A2aClient`
26//!
27//! `A2aClient::post_json_rpc` is private (it deserialises
28//! the reply into a typed `T`), and exposing it would
29//! couple the public client to a wire shape the library
30//! would rather not document. A second `reqwest::Client`
31//! costs one connection pool — `reqwest` already pools
32//! internally — and keeps the two paths independent, so a
33//! change to one does not silently change the other.

63/// The derived `Debug` would print `Some("the-token")`; an
64/// operator piping logs to a file or a tracing sink that is
65/// mirrored elsewhere has just leaked a credential. The
66/// shape printed here is the same one a tracing layer would
67/// build: peer identity, no secret.
68///
69/// `http` is rendered as `<reqwest::Client>` rather than
70/// expanded: `reqwest::Client`'s own `Debug` lists every
71/// default header, and a peer that attached the bearer via
72/// `default_headers` would have it printed here. The
73/// `Authorization` header this peer sets is built at request
74/// time and is never present on the client, so showing the
75/// client as a placeholder is the only safe summary.
