Descrizione

### What happened?

The multi-agent Airbnb planner application encounters a timeout error when the host agent attempts to communicate with remote agents (Airbnb and Weather agents). The error occurs in the `get_response_from_agent` function and results in an `A2AClientTimeoutError`.

**Expected behavior:** The host agent should successfully communicate with remote agents and receive responses within the timeout period.

**Actual behavior:** The client request times out, causing the entire agent interaction to fail.

## How to reproduce

1. Set up the multi-agent system following the README instructions
2. Start all three agents (airbnb_agent, weather_agent, host_agent)
3. Send a request through the host agent that requires communication with remote agents
4. The timeout error occurs during agent-to-agent communication

## Environment

- **Python Version:** 3.13
- **A2A SDK Version:** (from requirements)
- **Operating System:** macOS
- **Project:** airbnb_planner_multiagent sample

## Root Cause Analysis

The error originates from:
1. `httpcore.ReadTimeout` in the HTTP transport layer
2. Propagates through `httpx.ReadTimeout`
3. Finally caught and re-raised as `A2AClientTimeoutError` in the A2A client

The timeout occurs during the `send_message` operation between the host agent and remote agents via JSON-RPC transport.

### Relevant log output

Direzione di ricerca

Il problema si trova nella funzione `get_response_from_agent` e nel livello di trasporto JSON-RPC (`a2a/client/transports/jsonrpc.py`, riga 190). Inizia esaminando il progetto di esempio `airbnb_planner_multiagent` per comprendere la configurazione degli agenti e il flusso di comunicazione. Esamina la configurazione del timeout nel client A2A e le condizioni di rete tra l'host e gli agenti remoti. 'Done' significa che l'agente host può comunicare con gli agenti Airbnb e Weather senza timeout.
