Summary of Changes
Hello @mikeas1, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
This pull request addresses a discrepancy between the gRPC and JSON-RPC specifications by adding a missing "name" field to the "FilePart" protobuf message. This ensures consistency and completeness in the data structure definitions.
Highlights
- Protocol Buffer Definition Update: Added a "name" field of type "string" with field number "4" to the FilePart message in specification/grpc/a2a.proto. This rectifies an omission where the field was present in the JSON-RPC specification but missing from the gRPC definition.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a name field to the FilePart message within the gRPC protobuf definition. This is a valuable fix that brings the gRPC specification in line with the JSON-RPC specification, which already includes this field. The change is implemented correctly and ensures consistency across different transport protocols defined in the A2A standard. I find the change to be correct and have no further suggestions.
