Greptile Summary

This is the 0.11.5 release PR, bundling four changesets: tracing performance improvements, a protocol-type module promotion, new cleaned_at fields on task response types, and dependency cleanup.

• Tracing perf (perf(tracing): span queue linger + per-loop httpx keepalive #362):AsyncSpanQueue gains a configurable linger window (default 100 ms) to coalesce spans into larger batches, per-event-loop HTTP client caching via WeakKeyDictionary to restore connection keepalive safely, bounded retry on transient 429/5xx failures, and a dropped_spans counter for observability.
• Protocol types (refactor(types): promote protocol types to agentex.protocol.* #371): Wire-protocol shapes (RPCMethod, CreateTaskParams, JSONRPCRequest, etc.) are promoted from agentex.lib.types.* to the new canonical agentex.protocol.* package; the old paths become re-export shims with identity-preserving tests to guard isinstance compatibility.
• API surface (#38ed338):cleaned_at: Optional[datetime] added to Task, TaskListResponseItem, TaskRetrieveResponse, and TaskRetrieveByNameResponse.
• Deps (chore(deps): drop unused runtime deps and exclude tests from wheel #367): Several test/dev-only packages (pytest, pytest-asyncio, ipykernel, datadog, anthropic, tzdata, tornado) removed from the runtime wheel; test directories excluded from the built wheel via hatch config.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — changes are well-scoped, each guarded by matching tests, and backward compatibility is explicitly validated.

All three major areas of change (span-queue drain overhaul, per-loop client caching, protocol-type promotion) are covered by new or updated unit tests that pin the exact contracts being changed. The retry/drop logic is internally consistent, the WeakKeyDictionary eviction is verified end-to-end, and the back-compat shims are identity-tested. Dependency removals are dev/test packages that were never appropriate in the runtime wheel.

No files require special attention.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
src/agentex/lib/core/tracing/span_queue.py	Major enhancement: adds linger batching, bounded queue, per-loop retry with attempts counter, and drop observability; logic is consistent and well-tested.
src/agentex/lib/core/tracing/processors/agentex_tracing_processor.py	Switches from a single shared client (keepalive=0) to a per-event-loop WeakKeyDictionary cache with keepalive=20; lazy construction and correct WeakKey eviction.
src/agentex/lib/core/tracing/processors/sgp_tracing_processor.py	Same per-loop client cache pattern as the Agentex processor; also refactors disabled-check ordering (skip building spans when disabled), improving efficiency.
src/agentex/protocol/acp.py	New canonical location for ACP wire types (moved verbatim from lib/types/acp.py); uses standard pydantic BaseModel, consistent with the original.
src/agentex/protocol/json_rpc.py	New canonical location for JSON-RPC envelope types; correctly ports from_attributes=True and populate_by_name=True into an explicit ConfigDict after the switch from the custom BaseModel.
src/agentex/lib/types/acp.py	Reduced to a back-compat re-export shim; all original public symbols preserved including RPC_SYNC_METHODS and PARAMS_MODEL_BY_METHOD.
src/agentex/lib/types/json_rpc.py	Reduced to a back-compat re-export shim for JSONRPCError, JSONRPCRequest, JSONRPCResponse.
tests/test_protocol_shims.py	New tests asserting symbol parity, object identity between shim and canonical paths, and preservation of model_config flags on JSON-RPC types.
pyproject.toml	Version bump to 0.11.5; removes dev/test packages from runtime deps; opens openai-agents constraint to >=0.14.3,<0.15; adds wheel test-exclusion patterns.
src/agentex/types/task.py	Adds cleaned_at: Optional[datetime] = None field; straightforward API surface addition.
