Sample: Sequential workflow (agent-focused API) with shared conversation context
Build a high-level sequential workflow using SequentialBuilder and two domain agents.
The shared conversation (list[Message]) flows through each participant. Each agent
appends its assistant message to the context. The workflow outputs the final conversation
list when complete.
Note on internal adapters:
- Sequential orchestration includes small adapter nodes for input normalization
("input-conversation"), agent-response conversion ("to-conversation:<participant>"),
and completion ("complete"). These may appear as ExecutorInvoke/Completed events in
the stream—similar to how concurrent orchestration includes a dispatcher/aggregator.
You can safely ignore them when focusing on agent progress.
Prerequisites:
- AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT must be your Azure AI Foundry Agent Service (V2) project endpoint.
- Azure OpenAI access configured for AzureOpenAIResponsesClient (use az login + env vars)

Sample: Sequential Workflow with Tool Approval Requests
This sample demonstrates how to use SequentialBuilder with tools that require human
approval before execution. The approval flow uses the existing @tool decorator
with approval_mode="always_require" to trigger human-in-the-loop interactions.
This sample works as follows:
1. A SequentialBuilder workflow is created with a single agent that has tools requiring approval.
2. The agent receives a user task and determines it needs to call a sensitive tool.
3. The tool call triggers a function_approval_request Content, pausing the workflow.
4. The sample simulates human approval by responding to the .
5. Once approved, the tool executes and the agent completes its response.
6. The workflow outputs the final conversation with all messages.
Purpose:
Show how tool call approvals integrate seamlessly with SequentialBuilder without
requiring any additional builder configuration.
Demonstrate:
- Using @tool(approval_mode="always_require") for sensitive operations.
- Handling request_info events with function_approval_request Content in sequential workflows.
- Resuming workflow execution after approval via run(responses=..., stream=True).
Prerequisites:
- AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT must be your Azure AI Foundry Agent Service (V2) project endpoint.
- OpenAI or Azure OpenAI configured with the required environment variables.
- Basic familiarity with SequentialBuilder and streaming workflow events.

Their electric assistance reduces physical strain and allows riders to cover longer distances quickly,
minimizing travel time and fatigue. Budget models are low-cost to maintain and operate, making them accessible
for a wider range of people. Additionally, eBikes help reduce traffic congestion and carbon emissions,
supporting greener urban environments. Overall, budget eBikes provide cost-effective, efficient, and
sustainable transportation for daily commuting needs.
