public class ContentTypeNotSupportedError
extends A2AProtocolError

A2A Protocol error indicating incompatibility between requested content types and agent capabilities.

This error is returned when the input or output modes requested by a client are not supported by the agent. Agents declare their supported content types via AgentCard.defaultInputModes() and AgentCard.defaultOutputModes(), and clients can request specific modes via MessageSendConfiguration.

Common scenarios:

• Client requests audio input but agent only supports text
• Client requires video output but agent only produces text and images
• Incompatible combinations of input and output modes

Corresponds to A2A-specific error code -32005.

Usage example:

 if (!agentCard.defaultInputModes().contains(requestedInputMode)) {
     throw new ContentTypeNotSupportedError(
         null,
         "Input mode " + requestedInputMode + " not supported",
         null
     );
 }
