Raw Gemini-transcribed meeting notes and transcript available on Google Docs

Date: June 26, 2026 Attendees: Luca Chang, Thierry Damiba, Madhavi Pasumarthi, Spencer Reagan

Discussion

The meeting was informal and light on agenda, serving primarily as a status check on tasks implementation and a brief proposal discussion.

Tasks Implementation Status

Luca provided a status update on tasks. On versioning, he noted that the discussion with Peter on the extension versioning proposals remains pending. On implementation, the primary blocker is SDK readiness for the next spec version: the Go SDK may already support it, the C# SDK is close, but the Python and TypeScript SDKs do not yet. Luca reported he has been focused on implementing the new spec version within Bedrock AgentCore, specifically the gateway component.

URL Elicitation Scope

Thierry raised a proposal to restrict URL elicitation exclusively to tasks, motivated by the general trend of moving actions toward tasks. Luca pushed back, noting that URL elicitation serves authentication use cases where low latency is critical and tasks are not yet viable. Since authentication flows need to issue a URL elicitation immediately upon detecting missing credentials, wrapping them in a task would add unnecessary overhead. Thierry acknowledged the validity of this use case, and the proposal was shelved.

July Spec Changes and the Tasks Extension

Spencer asked about the July specification's impact on tasks. Luca confirmed two key changes: the 2025-11-25 version of tasks is being removed from the core specification, and a revised version is being rebuilt as an extension with its own specification already available for review. Spencer committed to reviewing the new extension spec.

Madhavi asked about the current experimental status of an agents extension. Luca clarified that the working group oversees the tasks extension but does not currently have a separate agents extension; one could be established once the boundaries of the use case are clearly defined.

Stateless Operations and Elicitation

Spencer noted that while the shift to stateless operations (SEP-2575) initially concerned him, the stateless structure actually simplified some workflows for his team. Luca clarified that while the message-level operations for elicitation remain largely unchanged, the transport-level operations have been entirely reworked, which affects how elicitation, sampling, and roots function.

Follow-ups

  • @LucaButBoring: Check with @CaitieM20 on whether next week's meeting (July 4 weekend) will be canceled.
  • Spencer Reagan: Review the new tasks extension specification.
