August 2025 focused on stabilizing and modernizing the agent system in a2a-samples to improve reliability, environment compatibility, and multi-step data handling. Implemented asyncio-based agent startup with a single event loop, resolved compatibility with a2a-sdk v0.3.0, and applied a version conflict workaround. Refactored agent orchestration to run steps sequentially, added logging, and migrated to SequentialAgent with adjusted output modes for better multi-step data handling. Updated the quickstart notebook to reflect the new architecture. These changes reduce downtime, improve developer onboarding, and enable more predictable production workflows.
