+# Code-Defined Agent Skills Sample
+
+This sample demonstrates how to define **Agent Skills entirely in code** using `AgentInlineSkill`.
+
+## What it demonstrates
+
+- Creating skills programmatically with `AgentInlineSkill` — no SKILL.md files needed
+- **Static resources** via `AddResource` with inline content
+- **Dynamic resources** via `AddResource` with a factory delegate (computed at runtime)
+- **Code scripts** via `AddScript` with a delegate handler
+- Using the `AgentSkillsProvider` constructor with inline skills
+
+## Skills Included
+
+### unit-converter (code-defined)
+
+Converts between common units using multiplication factors. Defined entirely in C# code:
+
+- `conversion-table` — Static resource with factor table
+- `conversion-policy` — Dynamic resource with formatting rules (generated at runtime)
+- `convert` — Script that performs `value × factor` conversion
+
+## Running the Sample
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- .NET 10.0 SDK
+- Azure OpenAI endpoint with a deployed model
+
+### Setup
+
+```bash
+export AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="https://your-endpoint.openai.azure.com/"
+export AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"
+```
+
+### Run
+
+```bash
+dotnet run
+```
+
+### Expected Output
+
+```
+Converting units with code-defined skills
+------------------------------------------------------------
+Agent: Here are your conversions:
+
+1. **26.2 miles → 42.16 km** (a marathon distance)
+2. **75 kg → 165.35 lbs**

 # AgentSkills Samples

-Samples demonstrating Agent Skills capabilities.
+Samples demonstrating Agent Skills capabilities. Each sample shows a different way to define and use skills.

 | Sample | Description |
 |--------|-------------|
 | [Agent_Step01_FileBasedSkills](Agent_Step01_FileBasedSkills/) | Define skills as `SKILL.md` files on disk with reference documents. Uses a unit-converter skill. |
+| [Agent_Step02_CodeDefinedSkills](Agent_Step02_CodeDefinedSkills/) | Define skills entirely in C# code using `AgentInlineSkill`, with static/dynamic resources and scripts. |
+
+## Key Concepts
+
+### File-Based vs Code-Defined Skills
+
+| Aspect | File-Based | Code-Defined |
+|--------|-----------|--------------|
+| Definition | `SKILL.md` files on disk | `AgentInlineSkill` instances in C# |
+| Resources | All files in skill directory (filtered by extension) | `AddResource` (static value or delegate-backed) |
+| Scripts | Supported via script executor delegate | `AddScript` delegates |
+| Discovery | Automatic from directory path | Explicit via constructor |
+| Dynamic content | No (static files only) | Yes (factory delegates) |
+| Reusability | Copy skill directory | Inline or shared instances |
+
+For single-source scenarios, use the `AgentSkillsProvider` constructors directly. To combine multiple skill types, use the `AgentSkillsProviderBuilder`.

+When an agent uses tools, the `FunctionInvokingChatClient` loops multiple times (service call → tool execution → service call → …). By enabling `SimulateServiceStoredChatHistory = true`, chat history is persisted after each service call via the `ServiceStoredSimulatingChatClient` decorator:

- A `ChatHistoryPersistingChatClient` decorator is automatically inserted into the chat client pipeline
+- A `ServiceStoredSimulatingChatClient` decorator is inserted into the chat client pipeline
+- Before each service call, the decorator loads history from the `ChatHistoryProvider` and prepends it to the request
 - After each service call, the decorator notifies the `ChatHistoryProvider` (and any `AIContextProvider` instances) with the new messages
 - Only **new** messages are sent to providers on each notification — messages that were already persisted in an earlier call within the same run are deduplicated automatically

-To opt into end-of-run persistence instead (atomic run semantics), set `PersistChatHistoryAtEndOfRun = true` on `ChatClientAgentOptions`. In that mode, the decorator marks messages with metadata rather than persisting them immediately, and `ChatClientAgent` persists only the marked messages at the end of the run.
+By default (without `SimulateServiceStoredChatHistory`), chat history is persisted at the end of the full agent run instead. To use per-service-call persistence, set `SimulateServiceStoredChatHistory = true` on `ChatClientAgentOptions`.
+
+With `SimulateServiceStoredChatHistory` = true, the behavior matches that of chat history stored in the underlying AI service exactly.

 Per-service-call persistence is useful for:

+# Creating and Running a Basic Agent with the Responses API
+
+This sample demonstrates how to create and run a basic AI agent using the `ChatClientAgent`, which uses the Microsoft Foundry Responses API directly without creating server-side agent definitions.
+
+## What this sample demonstrates
+
+- Creating a `ChatClientAgent` with instructions and a model
+- Running a simple single-turn conversation
+- No server-side agent creation or cleanup required
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
+
+- .NET 10 SDK or later
+- Microsoft Foundry service endpoint and deployment configured
+- Azure CLI installed and authenticated (for Azure credential authentication)
+
+**Note**: This demo uses Azure CLI credentials for authentication. Make sure you're logged in with `az login` and have access to the Microsoft Foundry resource. For more information, see the [Azure CLI documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/cli/azure/authenticate-azure-cli-interactively).

+Set the following environment variables:
+
+```powershell
+$env:AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="https://your-foundry-service.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/your-foundry-project"
+$env:AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"

+
+Navigate to the AgentsWithFoundry sample directory and run:
+
+```powershell
+cd dotnet/samples/02-agents/AgentsWithFoundry
+dotnet run --project .\Agent_Step01_Basics
+```
+
+## Alternative: Composable approach
+
+You can also create the same agent by composing the underlying `IChatClient` directly. This gives you full control over the chat client pipeline:
+
+```csharp
+using Azure.AI.Projects;
+using Azure.Identity;
+using Microsoft.Agents.AI;
+using Microsoft.Extensions.AI;
+
+AIProjectClient aiProjectClient = new(new Uri(endpoint), new DefaultAzureCredential());
+
+AIAgent agent = new ChatClientAgent(
+    chatClient: aiProjectClient.GetProjectOpenAIClient().GetProjectResponsesClient().AsIChatClient(deploymentName),
+    instructions: "You are good at telling jokes.",
+    name: "JokerAgent");
+```
+
+This approach is useful when you need to customize the chat client pipeline or swap providers (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI) while keeping the same agent code.

+# Using Function Tools with the Responses API
+
+This sample demonstrates how to use function tools with the `ChatClientAgent`, allowing the agent to call custom functions to retrieve information.
+
+## What this sample demonstrates
+
+- Creating function tools using `AIFunctionFactory`
+- Passing function tools to a `ChatClientAgent`
+- Running agents with function tools (text output)
+- Running agents with function tools (streaming output)
+- No server-side agent creation or cleanup required
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
+
+- .NET 10 SDK or later
+- Microsoft Foundry service endpoint and deployment configured
+- Azure CLI installed and authenticated (for Azure credential authentication)
+
+**Note**: This demo uses Azure CLI credentials for authentication. Make sure you're logged in with `az login` and have access to the Microsoft Foundry resource. For more information, see the [Azure CLI documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/cli/azure/authenticate-azure-cli-interactively).
+
+Set the following environment variables:
+
+```powershell
+$env:AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="https://your-foundry-service.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/your-foundry-project"
+$env:AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"
+```
+
+## Run the sample

+# Bing Custom Search with the Responses API
+
+This sample shows how to use the Bing Custom Search tool with a `ChatClientAgent` using the Responses API directly.
+
+## What this sample demonstrates
+
+- Configuring `BingCustomSearchToolParameters` with connection ID and instance name
+- Using `FoundryAITool.CreateBingCustomSearchTool()` with `ChatClientAgent`
+- Processing search results from agent responses
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- .NET 10 SDK or later
+- Microsoft Foundry service endpoint and deployment configured
+- Azure CLI installed and authenticated (`az login`)
+- Bing Custom Search resource configured with a connection ID
+
+Set the following environment variables:
+
+```powershell
+$env:AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="https://your-foundry-service.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/your-foundry-project"
+$env:AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"
+$env:AZURE_AI_CUSTOM_SEARCH_CONNECTION_ID="your-connection-id"  # The full ARM resource URI, e.g., "/subscriptions/.../connections/your-bing-connection"
+$env:AZURE_AI_CUSTOM_SEARCH_INSTANCE_NAME="your-instance-name"  # The Bing Custom Search configuration name (from Azure portal)
+```
+
+### Finding the connection ID and instance name
+
+- **Connection ID** (`AZURE_AI_CUSTOM_SEARCH_CONNECTION_ID`): The full ARM resource URI including the `/projects/<name>/connections/<connection-name>` segment. Find the connection name in your Foundry project under **Management center** → **Connected resources**.
+- **Instance Name** (`AZURE_AI_CUSTOM_SEARCH_INSTANCE_NAME`): The **configuration name** from your Bing Custom Search resource (Azure portal → your Bing Custom Search resource → **Configurations**). This is _not_ the Azure resource name or the connection name — it's the name of the specific search configuration that defines which domains/sites to search against.

+# Memory Search with the Responses API
+
+This sample demonstrates how to use the Memory Search tool with a `ChatClientAgent` using the Responses API directly.
+
+## What this sample demonstrates
+
+- Configuring `MemorySearchPreviewTool` with a memory store and user scope
+- Using memory search for cross-conversation recall
+- Inspecting `MemorySearchToolCallResponseItem` results
+- User profile persistence across conversations
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- .NET 10 SDK or later
+- Microsoft Foundry service endpoint and deployment configured
+- Azure CLI installed and authenticated (`az login`)
+- A memory store created beforehand via Azure Portal or Python SDK
+
+Set the following environment variables:
+
+```powershell
+$env:AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="https://your-foundry-service.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/your-foundry-project"
+$env:AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"
+$env:AZURE_AI_MEMORY_STORE_ID="your-memory-store-name"
+```
+
+## Run the sample
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run
+```
