Description

### SDK Language

Python

### Strands Version

strands-agents[otel,a2a]==1.45.0

### Language Runtime Version

Python 3.13

### Operating System

python:3.13-slim-bookworm docker image running in agentcore runtime

### Installation Method

other

### Steps to Reproduce

- Create a minimal vanilla Strands agent using the bedrock-agentcore-sdk-python and strands-agents SDKs.
- Wrap the agent using StrandsA2AExecutor(..., enable_a2a_compliant_streaming=True) and serve it using serve_a2a().
- Deploy the application to an AWS Bedrock AgentCore Runtime.
- Invoke the agent normally.
- Monitor the AWS CloudWatch metrics and log streams for the execution environment.

```python
import os

from bedrock_agentcore.runtime import serve_a2a
from strands import Agent
from strands.models.bedrock import BedrockModel
from strands.multiagent.a2a.executor import StrandsA2AExecutor

_MODEL_ID = os.getenv("MODEL_ID", "")
_AGENT_CARD_CONTEXT_ID = "__agent_card__"
_AGENT_DESCRIPTION = (
"An analytics agent"
)
_SYSTEM_PROMPT = (
"You are an analytics assistant."
)

def _build_agent() -> Agent:
return Agent(
model=BedrockModel(model_id=_MODEL_ID),
name="Agent",
description=_AGENT_DESCRIPTION,
system_prompt=_SYSTEM_PROMPT,
)

def _agent_factory(context_id: str) -> Agent:
return _build_agent()

if __name__ == "__main__":
executor = StrandsA2AExecutor(
agent_factory=_agent_factory,
enable_a2a_compliant_streaming=True,
)
serve_a2a(executor)

```

### Expected Behavior

After the client request finishes (or the client disconnects), the underlying ASGI server should cleanly resolve the request. The AgentCore Runtime should then recognize the environment as "Idle", start the idleRuntimeSessionTimeout countdown, and cleanly shut down the microVM once the timeout is reached.

### Actual Behavior

- The AgentCore Runtime considers the environment continuously "Active".
- The idleRuntimeSessionTimeout is never reached.
- Despite there being no further requests for the session, the execution environment remains alive, indefinitely racking up continuous GB-hour billing, until it hits the platform's absolute hard maximum lifetime limit (e.g., 8 hours) and is forcefully killed.

### Additional Context

I don't have the same issue for regular (non-A2A) strands agents.

I originally opened a bug report to the Strands developers https://github.com/strands-agents/harness-sdk/issues/3120 and they said they internally diverted it to the agentcore team. I am making this ticket so there is a publicly accessible way to track the progress.

Commencez par le point d’entrée serve_a2a() et StrandsA2AExecutor configuré avec enable_a2a_compliant_streaming=True, puis reproduisez les parcours de fin de requête et de déconnexion du client sur AWS Bedrock AgentCore. Utilisez les métriques et les flux de journaux CloudWatch pour vérifier que l’environnement passe à l’état Idle et que idleRuntimeSessionTimeout peut l’arrêter après la fin de la requête.
