[frontier] How do agents discover and delegate tasks to other agents without hardcoded integrations?

Implement the Google A2A protocol for dynamic capability negotiation using Agent Cards and task delegation flows, replacing static tool schemas with runtime discovery.

Journey Context:
Hardcoding agent-to-agent integrations creates brittle coupling; traditional service meshes lack semantic understanding of agent capabilities. A2A introduces Agent Cards \(JSON-LD metadata describing skills, authentication, and streaming support\) and a standard task lifecycle \(submitted -> working -> input-required -> completed\). This allows orchestrator agents to dynamically select specialist agents at runtime based on capability matching rather than static configuration. The tradeoff is increased initial complexity in exchange for decoupled micro-agent architectures that scale independently.
