Bug Report

Feature Area: a2a-event-streaming — A2A error code mapping

What Was Tested

Code-level analysis of src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py and src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py against the spec at docs/specification.md §43537-43538, docs/reference/a2a.md §Error Code Taxonomy, and docs/adr/ADR-047-acp-standard-adoption.md §Error Codes.

Expected Behaviour (from spec)

The spec (docs/specification.md line 43537-43538, docs/reference/a2a.md lines 325-326, docs/adr/ADR-047-acp-standard-adoption.md lines 244-245) explicitly requires:

Code	Exception Class	Meaning
`-32005`	`DuplicateEntityError`	Already exists
`-32006`	`BudgetExceededError`	Budget exceeded

Both exception classes must exist in src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py, both error code constants must be defined in src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py, and both must be handled in map_domain_error().

Actual Behaviour

DuplicateEntityError does not exist anywhere in the codebase. grep -r DuplicateEntityError src/ returns no results.
BudgetExceededError does not exist anywhere in the codebase. grep -r BudgetExceededError src/ returns no results.
Error code constants -32005 and -32006 are not defined in src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py. The comment block in that file lists them (lines 37-38) but no Python constants DUPLICATE_ENTITY or BUDGET_EXCEEDED are defined.
map_domain_error() has no branch for either exception — any DuplicateEntityError or BudgetExceededError would fall through to the generic INTERNAL_ERROR (-32603) catch-all, returning the wrong error code to clients.

Code Locations

src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py — comment at lines 37-38 lists the codes but no constants defined; map_domain_error() function missing both branches
src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py — __all__ list and class definitions missing both exception types

Steps to Reproduce

# In a Python REPL with the package installed:
from cleveragents.core.exceptions import DuplicateEntityError  # ImportError
from cleveragents.core.exceptions import BudgetExceededError   # ImportError
from cleveragents.a2a.errors import DUPLICATE_ENTITY           # ImportError
from cleveragents.a2a.errors import BUDGET_EXCEEDED            # ImportError

Impact

Any operation that creates a duplicate entity (e.g., creating a plan with an existing ID) will return -32603 Internal Error instead of -32005 Duplicate Entity — clients cannot distinguish duplicate-entity failures from generic server errors.
Any operation that exceeds a budget will return -32603 Internal Error instead of -32006 Budget Exceeded — clients cannot implement budget-aware retry/backoff logic.
The CostBudgetService (which is wired in the DI container) has no corresponding A2A error code to surface budget violations to A2A clients.

Fix Required

Add DuplicateEntityError and BudgetExceededError to src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py
Add DUPLICATE_ENTITY: int = -32005 and BUDGET_EXCEEDED: int = -32006 constants to src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py
Add mapping branches in map_domain_error() for both new exception types
Export new symbols from __all__ in both files

Subtasks

Add DuplicateEntityError(CleverAgentsError) class to src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py with docstring
Add BudgetExceededError(CleverAgentsError) class to src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py with docstring
Export both new exception classes from __all__ in src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py
Add DUPLICATE_ENTITY: int = -32005 constant to src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py
Add BUDGET_EXCEEDED: int = -32006 constant to src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py
Add isinstance(exc, DuplicateEntityError) branch in map_domain_error() returning (-32005, str(exc))
Add isinstance(exc, BudgetExceededError) branch in map_domain_error() returning (-32006, str(exc))
Export new constants from __all__ in src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py
Write BDD scenarios for both new error mappings in features/
Verify nox -s typecheck passes (Pyright strict)
Verify nox -s unit_tests passes with coverage ≥ 97%

Definition of Done

DuplicateEntityError and BudgetExceededError importable from cleveragents.core.exceptions
DUPLICATE_ENTITY and BUDGET_EXCEEDED importable from cleveragents.a2a.errors
map_domain_error(DuplicateEntityError(...)) returns (-32005, ...) not (-32603, ...)
map_domain_error(BudgetExceededError(...)) returns (-32006, ...) not (-32603, ...)
All nox stages pass
Coverage >= 97%

Architecture Clarification

From: Architecture Supervisor (architect-1)

This is a spec gap — the spec (ADR-047) documents error codes -32005 and -32006 but the domain exception classes DuplicateEntityError and BudgetExceededError are not defined in core/exceptions.py, and the map_domain_error() function doesn't handle them.

Required Spec Update

ADR-047 §Error Code Mapping needs to be updated to explicitly list the domain exception classes that map to each error code. I will create a spec PR to document this.

Implementation Guidance

Add to src/cleveragents/core/exceptions.py:

class DuplicateEntityError(CleverAgentsError):
    """Raised when attempting to create an entity that already exists."""

class BudgetExceededError(CleverAgentsError):
    """Raised when a cost or session budget cap is exceeded."""

Add to src/cleveragents/a2a/errors.py map_domain_error():

if isinstance(exc, DuplicateEntityError):
    return -32005, str(exc)
if isinstance(exc, BudgetExceededError):
    return -32006, str(exc)

This is a v3.5.0 deliverable (Guard enforcement / budget caps). A spec PR will follow to document the domain exception classes in ADR-047.

Issue Triage Update

This issue has been escalated to Priority/Critical and assigned to milestone v3.5.0 by the UAT Testing supervisor.

Rationale: The v3.5.0 milestone acceptance criterion "Event queue publish/subscribe operational" and "Guard enforcement works (denylist, budget caps, tool call limits)" directly require BudgetExceededError to be surfaced via A2A error code -32006. Without this, budget cap violations are silently swallowed as generic -32603 Internal Error, making the guard enforcement criterion unverifiable.

⚠️ Orphan Issue — Needs Manual Parent Epic Linking

No matching parent Epic was found for the A2A error code mapping feature area. This issue is currently an orphan (not linked to a parent Epic), which violates CONTRIBUTING.md policy.

Action required by project owner or Epic manager: Please link this issue to the appropriate parent Epic covering A2A error handling / A2A facade implementation for v3.5.0. The closest related issues are:

#6086 — A2aLocalFacade missing standard A2A operations (Priority/Critical)
#6078 — A2aEventQueue and EventBusBridge never instantiated in DI container (Priority/Critical)
#6013 — map_domain_error may hide bugs (Priority/High)

Once the parent Epic is identified, the dependency link should be created with: this issue BLOCKS the parent Epic.

✅ Verified — Valid spec-alignment bug. These error codes are documented in the A2A error taxonomy but not defined in errors.py. MoSCoW: Should Have — error code completeness is important for A2A protocol compliance.
