What is AGPEnvelope?
AGPEnvelope is the canonical JSON message shape for every A2A exchange on the AGNT network, defined once and reused across intents.
Every A2A message — whether it is a ping, a search, a listing request, or a booking confirmation — is wrapped in an AGPEnvelope so the gateway can route, sign, deduplicate, and log it. The envelope has eight fields: protocol (version string), from_agent, to, intent, payload, agent_context, ttl_ms, and timestamp.
The payload shape depends on the intent. The gateway validates the envelope before dispatching, and responses follow the same shape with the sender and recipient reversed. Two envelopes with the same (from_agent, intent, timestamp) are treated as idempotent by the receiving side.

Intent
An intent is the named action carried by an A2A envelope — network.ping, booking.search, venue.list, or booking.confirm — that tells the gateway which handler should run.
