Report #60559

[frontier] Total workflow failure when single agent in A2A network becomes unavailable

Implement circuit breakers and fallback agents using A2A error handling semantics for graceful degradation

Journey Context:
In multi-agent systems, one slow agent can cascade timeouts. A2A defines specific error types \(rate limits, auth failures\). Wrap calls in circuit breakers that route to fallback agents after N failures. Tradeoff: requires redundant agent capacity but ensures high availability for critical paths.
