a2a-push-notifications

a2a-push-notifications is a skill for Claude Code from OrcaQubits/agentic-commerce-skills-plugins. It costs 40 tokens per session (859 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding skill for adding A2A push notifications, where a server sends task updates to a client at a registered callback address. A2A is a protocol for communication between software agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for asynchronous A2A tasks, including jobs lasting minutes or hours, batch work, serverless clients, or workflows that need eventual completion notices.
Why use it?
It avoids keeping a connection open or repeatedly checking for updates while a long-running task runs. The client can receive changes when the server sends them.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

a2a-push-notifications scanned grade A with 0 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 7d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

A2A Push Notifications

Before writing code

Fetch live docs:

  1. Fetch https://a2a-protocol.org/latest/specification/ for the push notification section
  2. Web-search site:github.com a2aproject A2A push notifications for notification protocol details
  3. Web-search site:github.com a2aproject a2a-samples push notification for implementation examples
  4. Fetch SDK docs for push notification classes and configuration

Conceptual Architecture

What Push Notifications Are

Push notifications allow A2A servers to proactively notify clients about task state changes without requiring the client to hold open a streaming connection or poll. The client registers a callback URL, and the server POSTs updates to it.

When to Use Push Notifications

  • Very long-running tasks — Minutes to hours, where holding an SSE connection is impractical
  • Asynchronous workflows — Client doesn't need real-time updates, just eventual notification
  • Serverless clients — Clients that can't maintain long-lived connections
  • Batch processing — Multiple tasks submitted, notifications received as each completes

How It Works

  1. Client registers — Calls tasks/pushNotificationConfig/set with a callback URL for a task
  2. Server stores config — Associates the callback URL with the task
  3. Task progresses — Server processes the task normally
  4. Server notifies — When the task state changes, server POSTs an update to the callback URL
  5. Client processes — Client's webhook endpoint receives and processes the notification

Push Notification Methods

Method Purpose
tasks/pushNotificationConfig/set Register a callback URL for a task
tasks/pushNotificationConfig/get Retrieve the notification config for a task
tasks/pushNotificationConfig/list List all notification configs
tasks/pushNotificationConfig/delete Remove a notification config

Notification Payload

When the server sends a push notification, it POSTs a JSON payload to the callback URL containing:

  • Task ID
  • Current task status (state + optional message)
  • Optional artifacts or data

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.
