Instead of <topic> use YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>, which is the pattern used by other agents

How much of this logic is PF-specific? Could it be put into utils for other interactive A2A agents to use in the future?

I also got some comments for the PR of the PF a2a endpoint impl, so I will merge this once the other (PF) PR is merged and deployed; most likely on Sunday/Monday.

asta literature interactive— a stateful, multi-turn literature search commandthat talks to the mabool paper-finder A2A endpoint over JSON-RPC + SSE. Runs the full
paper-finder agent (planning + reasoning/verification loop + conversation state) on top
of the same retrieval pipeline used by
asta literature find.Highlights:
--thread-dir DIRpersists a session: each turn writesDIR/<-o stem>.NNN.<ext>and appends to
DIR/index.json(ordered turn metadata +thread_id). Subsequentinvocations auto-resume the conversation — no copying ids between calls.
--thread-id <id>kept as a lower-level escape hatch.LiteratureSearchResult(compatible withfind) plus optionalthread_idandnarrativefields.asta authtoken /ASTA_A2A_API_KEY. Server URL via--serverorASTA_PAPER_FINDER_A2A_URL.Skills updated:
find-literature— documentsfindvsinteractiveat the session level (defaultto
interactivefor any literature-focused session;findfor embedded searchsub-steps in unrelated multi-step flows). Documents
--thread-diras therecommended multi-turn pattern.
semantic-scholar— cross-references find-literature for the "lookup vs. gradedretrieval" decision.
