An Agent Framework Can Carry Your Request—Not Your Responsibility

Microsoft Agent Framework's newest A2A and BYOK samples make one quiet operating rule visible: let a caller's configuration cross the boundary, but leave the host's policy and the provider's obligations where they belong.

A torn-paper marker diagram shows a caller configuration envelope passing through an A2A hand-off to a host-policy gate while a separate BYOK provider card keeps the endpoint, key, and bill distinct; a red stamp says the evidence is source tests, not a release.
Diagram Punkan interface can carry a request without carrying away responsibility.
