Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00052 | $0.02467 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.01234 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00493 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00247 |
Grade C, and why
a2a-python-sut scanned grade C with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Work with the a2a-python SUT
The a2a-python SUT is a Python application generated from Gherkin .feature files in scenarios/. It implements the A2A protocol using the a2a-python SDK (a2a-sdk) and serves as a conformance target for TCK tests.
Architecture overview
scenarios/*.feature → codegen (parser + steps + python_emitter) → sut/a2a-python/
- Gherkin scenarios (
scenarios/*.feature) define SUT behavior via messageId prefix matching - Code generator (
codegen/) parses.featurefiles and emits a Python project - Jinja2 templates (
codegen/a2a-python/*.j2) producesut_agent.pyandpyproject.toml - Generated output (
sut/a2a-python/) is a complete runnable Python project
Key generated files
| File | Template | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
sut_agent.py |
sut_agent.py.j2 |
Main entry point; TckAgentExecutor with messageId-prefix routing, agent card, and server setup for all three transports |
pyproject.toml |
pyproject.toml.j2 |
Project config with a2a-sdk dependency (installed from local path) |
How the executor works
The generated TckAgentExecutor matches on the messageId prefix from incoming messages:
if message_id.startswith('tck-complete-task'):
await updater.complete(updater.new_agent_message([Part(text="Hello from TCK")]))
return
The TCK tests use tck_id("complete-task") which generates tck-complete-task-<session_hex>, matching the prefix.
Server architecture
The SUT runs all three transports in a single process:
- JSON-RPC via
A2AStarletteApplication(Starlette) - HTTP+JSON via
A2ARESTFastAPIApplication(FastAPI mounted on the Starlette app) - gRPC via
GrpcHandler(grpc.aio server on a separate port)
Step 0: Inform the user of the version of a2a-python
The a2a-python SDK version is controlled by the A2A_PYTHON_SDK_VERSION environment variable.
The default value is defined in codegen/python_emitter.py (_DEFAULT_A2A_PYTHON_SDK_VERSION).
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

a2a-python-sut is a skill published in the GitHub repository a2aproject/a2a-tck (48 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 2,467 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
