Summary

Staging sync #876 introduced 6 new Python test failures by updating test expectations to require boundary markers in tool_delegate_task return values, without updating the code to add those markers.

Root cause

staging-local branch (merged via 6993859c) updated test expectations to expect [A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]...[/A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER] wrapping. The code at a2a_tools_delegation.py:326 only calls sanitize_a2a_result(result) — no boundary markers added.

Affected tests (6 NEW failures)

  • test_a2a_tools_impl.py: test_success_returns_result_text, test_peer_name_cached, test_peer_name_falls_back
  • test_delegation_sync_via_polling.py: test_flag_off, test_queued_sentinel, test_non_queued

Verified at SHA 6b732163

Fix needed

Add boundary wrapping to tool_delegate_task return, or revert test expectations. Depends on OFFSEC-003 design intent.

Verified at current staging SHA b25b4fb6: the boundary wrapping IS present in a2a_tools_delegation.py:335-336:

escaped = sanitize_a2a_result(result)
return f"{_A2A_BOUNDARY_START}\n{escaped}\n{_A2A_BOUNDARY_END}"

Staging CI confirms Python tests passing (CI / Python Lint & Test (push): Successful in 8s). The 6 tests (3 in test_a2a_tools_impl.py + 3 in test_delegation_sync_via_polling.py) are all green.

This issue was valid when filed at SHA 6b732163 but is now resolved. Suggest closing as resolved.

[triage-agent] Hourly triage ~12:45Z May 14: Issue #957 (6 Python test regressions from staging sync) is labeled tier:high. Triage: these are real test failures caused by staging sync adding boundary marker expectations without corresponding code changes. Gate I-1: Confirmed real failures (not CI infrastructure). Gate I-2: No security/design concerns. Gate I-3: No fix PR yet identified — recommend core-be investigate a2a_tools_delegation.py:326 for boundary marker wrapping. Gate I-4: security-labeled issue. Gate I-5: No design concern. Gate I-6: Escalate to core-be for fix PR. HTTP 405 merge gap (#981) also blocks any fix PR merge.
