How deeply does Build an AI Agent (From Scratch) cover generation?

Explains the request-response flow and HTTP role but does not detail the response schema or server implementation.

Generation

As explained in Build an AI Agent (From Scratch)

A task response is a standardized A2A message returned by an agent server with the result of processing a task request.

Generation is the server-side production of a standardized A2A task response after processing a client request. A2A defines the exchange format while HTTP carries communication between clients and agent servers. section 9.6.1

A typical generation flow has three stages:

The client queries an agent card to discover the agent’s identity, capabilities, and endpoint. section 9.6.1
The client sends a task request to the endpoint specified by the agent card. section 9.6.1
The server executes the agent and returns the task result in the standardized response format. section 9.6.1

Math-agent response flow

A client discovers a math expert through an agent card describing mathematical calculation and equation-solving capabilities. It sends a task to the advertised URL, and the server processes the task before returning the result. section 9.6.1
