fix(worker): preserve A2A parts in handler message history - #611
Conversation
build_message_history flattened A2A messages to chat {role, content},
dropping `parts` — every file/vision handler received an empty message
("No file part found") and text handlers lost the parts contract.
Regression shipped in 2026.20.2 (c5ed0f8, FileInterceptor).
- ManifestWorker.build_message_history now passes A2A messages through
verbatim with `parts` intact — the contract handlers are written
against. The system-prompt injection is unaffected.
- Chat-format flattening moves to the one boundary that needs it:
GrpcAgentClient._build_request (proto ChatMessage only carries
{role, content}); roles still map agent→assistant and file parts are
text-extracted, so the SDK wire contract is unchanged.
- FileInterceptor reads the A2A FilePart shape
(part["file"]["mimeType"] / ["bytes"]) instead of nonexistent
top-level keys that turned every upload into
"[Unsupported file type: ]".
- boxd e2e echo fixture migrated to parts-first with content fallback.
- Regression tests pin all three contracts.
Verified E2E: a real bindufied agent over HTTP received byte-exact
binary file parts (sha256-checked, non-UTF-8 payload); a real gRPC
loopback server confirmed the SDK still gets clean {role, content}.

Preserve the role of multipart system messages.
Message permits the system role. MessageConverter.to_chat_format() maps only agent and user, so a multipart system message falls back to user at this line. The remote handler then receives system instructions as user content.
Add a system: "system" mapping, or preserve that role in this conversion. Add a regression test with a system message that contains parts.

Addresses the confirmed findings from the adversarial review of #611: - Inject the structured-response system prompt as an A2A message with parts (was a chat-shaped {role, content} dict at index 0), so handlers see one uniform contract; ROLE_MAP gains "system" so the role maps through to the gRPC wire unchanged instead of demoting to "user". - build_message_history returns structural copies with UUID envelope fields stringified: handler input is JSON-serializable, identical across storage backends, and mutations can no longer reach live stored history (the memory backend's list_tasks_by_context returns live refs). - FileInterceptor: FileWithUri / missing-bytes parts yield an explicit "[File reference not fetched: ...]" placeholder instead of a misleading empty "Document Uploaded" block; extraction is lru_cached so multi-turn conversations stop re-decoding and re-parsing every file in history on the event loop. - GrpcAgentClient._build_request: single-pass proto build; debug log when a message flattens to nothing (data-only turns are invisible to SDK agents — now observable and documented in grpc/limitations.md). - Public contract surfaces updated: bindufy handler type + docstring example, Worker.build_message_history docs, and six docs that still taught the retired flattened contract. - Fixtures: x402 e2e agent reads parts; boxd e2e now actually sends a message/send and asserts the echoed text (env-gated suite). Examples migration is intentionally excluded — tracked separately. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

25 example handlers still read the pre-parts flattened chat shape (messages[-1]["content"]) or passed raw A2A dicts into agno. Under the parts pass-through they either crash (KeyError: 'content') or degrade silently — agno 2.6.5 serializes parts-shaped dicts as content="", so models were asked empty questions while tasks "completed". - Direct readers now extract text from message parts (with a content fallback in the standalone examples so they also run against older bindu releases) - Agno passthrough handlers convert history via MessageConverter.to_chat_format, restoring pre-regression behavior (role mapping, file-to-text extraction, system prompt included) - File-upload examples handle real file parts: pdf_research_agent decodes inline application/pdf bytes via pypdf, speech-to-text bridges audio parts to its path-based tool through a temp file Verified by a 10-example parallel E2E fan-out against this branch plus live post-fix smoke tests (echo, summarizer, agno joke agent, PDF file part, agent swarm — all completed with real model output).

An 8-angle review (line-by-line, removed-behavior, cross-file trace, reuse, simplification, efficiency, altitude, conventions) with per-finding verification produced 10 confirmed findings; this commit fixes 9:
parts(was a chat-shaped dict at index 0 — aKeyError: 'parts'trap for any handler iterating the full history under default settings).ROLE_MAPgains"system", so the role maps through to the gRPC wire unchanged instead of demoting to"user".build_message_historyreturns structural copies with UUID envelope fields stringified —json.dumps(messages)works on every storage backend, and handler mutations can no longer corrupt live stored history (the memory backend'slist_tasks_by_contextreturns live references).FileWithUri/missing-bytes parts yield an explicit[File reference not fetched: …]placeholder instead of a misleading empty "Document Uploaded" block; extraction islru_cached so multi-turn conversations stop re-decoding and re-parsing every file in history on the event loop._build_requestlogs when a message flattens to nothing (data-part-only turns are invisible to SDK agents — now documented indocs/grpc/limitations.md).bindufyhandler type + docstring example,Worker.build_message_historydocs, and six docs that still taught the retired flattened contract (runtime/quickstart,runtime/README,FILE_HANDLING_&_UPLOADS,grpc/client,grpc/limitations,GRPC_LANGUAGE_AGNOSTIC) all updated per the docs-in-same-PR convention.message/sendand asserts the echoed text (env-gated suite — not run in CI here).Examples migration (commit 3 — resolves review finding 10)
25 in-repo example handlers still read the retired flattened shape and were confirmed broken by the fan-out testing below (crash via
KeyError: 'content', or worse: silent degradation — agno 2.6.5 serializes parts-shaped dicts ascontent="", so models were asked empty questions while tasks "completed"; hermes returned "Empty message." for every request).

Core contract held in all 10: PDF and audio file parts arrived byte-exact (960 and 110,900 base64 chars, length-matched at the handler), file parts survived stored history viareferenceTaskIds(follow-up turn answered from the file alone), and a real TypeScript SDK agent recovered a marker from cross-task history through the wire-boundary flattening — with the core system prompt demonstrably reaching it. The regression string never appeared.pdf_research_agentwith an inline PDF part (reply quoted the probe marker), and the 5-agentagent_swarmchain (previously 0 LLM calls) — all completed.Follow-ups (out of scope, tracked separately)
