Abstract: For any reduced amalgamated free product $mathrm{C}^{*}$-algebra $(A,E)=(A_1,E_1)as{t}_D(A_2,E_2)$, we introduce and study a canonical ambient $mathrm{C}^{*}$-algebra $DeltamathbfT(A,E)$ of $A$ which generalizes the crossed product arising from the canonical action of an amalgamated free product group on the compactification of the associated Bass--Serre tree. Using an explicit identification of $DeltamathbfT(A,E)$ with a Cuntz--Pimsner algebra we prove two kinds of "amenability" results for $DeltamathbfT(A,E)$; nuclearity and universality. As applications of our framework, we provide new conceptual, and simpler proofs of several known theorems on approximation properties, embeddability, and $KK$-theory for reduced amalgamated free product $mathrm{C}^{*}$-algebras.
