  • Python: feat(a2a): use non-streaming transport and return_immediately for background ops (#5963)
    * feat(a2a): use non-streaming transport and return_immediately for background ops
    
    When stream=False, use a client configured with streaming=False so the
    SDK sends a single HTTP POST to message/send instead of opening an SSE
    connection via message/stream. This matches the A2A protocol's design:
    non-streaming calls use direct request/response, streaming calls use
    Server-Sent Events.
    
    Also sets return_immediately=background on SendMessageConfiguration so
    the server respects the caller's intent for background operations.
    
    Changes:
    - Create separate streaming and non-streaming internal clients (sharing
      the same httpx connection pool) to match protocol transport semantics
    - Select non-streaming client for run(stream=False) calls
    - Add SendMessageConfiguration with return_immediately=background
    - Fallback to streaming client when non-streaming unavailable (e.g. user
      provides their own client via constructor)
    - Add tests for client selection and return_immediately behavior
    
    Resolves microsoft/agent-framework#5936

    * fix: address PR review feedback
    
    - Initialize last_request in MockA2AClient.__init__ for explicit state
    - Use 'is not None' instead of truthiness for _non_streaming_client check
    - Assert return_immediately propagates through non-streaming client path

    * fix: only set configuration when background=True
    
    Only attach SendMessageConfiguration to the request when background=True,
    keeping requests minimal and preserving server-side defaults for normal
    (foreground) operations. This follows the framework pattern of only
    setting optional fields when they have meaningful values.

    * fix: only set return_immediately for non-streaming background ops
    
    Per the A2A spec, return_immediately only applies to message/send
    (non-streaming). It has no effect on streaming operations. Only set
    the configuration field when both background=True and stream=False.
    
    Adds test verifying streaming+background does not set return_immediately.

  • Python: feat(foundry): add experimental hosted tool factories on FoundryChatClient (#5958)
    * feat(foundry): add experimental hosted tool factories on FoundryChatClient
    
    Adds eight new `@experimental` static factory methods on `FoundryChatClient`
    covering Foundry-hosted tools that previously had no helper:
    
    - get_azure_ai_search_tool
    - get_sharepoint_tool
    - get_fabric_tool
    - get_memory_search_tool
    - get_computer_use_tool
    - get_browser_automation_tool
    - get_bing_custom_search_tool
    - get_a2a_tool
    
    All factories are marked with the new `ExperimentalFeature.FOUNDRY_TOOLS` tag
    and resolve the underlying `azure-ai-projects` preview classes lazily through
    a `_require_sdk_class` helper so older SDK versions still import cleanly and
    fail with a clear `ImportError` only on use.
    
    Tests cover each factory's return type and field wiring, the experimental
    metadata, and the missing-SDK-class fallback.
    
    Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
    
    * test(foundry): address review comments on tool-factory tests
    
    * Skip preview-tool tests gracefully (`_skip_if_sdk_class_missing`) when
      the installed `azure-ai-projects` does not expose the required preview
      class, matching the lazy-import guard in production code so the test
      suite stays green on older SDK installs.
    * Add `filterwarnings("ignore::FutureWarning")` to each new tool-factory
      test (and the parametrized metadata test) so they remain stable under
      strict warning configurations \u2014 the global dedup in
      `_feature_stage._WARNED_FEATURES` makes `pytest.warns` brittle across
      ordered runs.
    * Use `monkeypatch.setattr(..., None, raising=False)` instead of
      `delattr` in the missing-SDK-class test so it works for modules that
      implement PEP 562 `__getattr__`.
    * Split the long `get_bing_custom_search_tool` return into two lines for
      readability.

    * fix(foundry): harden tool-factory kwargs against silent override
    
    * Reorder the dict-literal kwargs assembly in get_azure_ai_search_tool,
      get_memory_search_tool, and get_bing_custom_search_tool so explicit
      parameters always take precedence over **kwargs (matching the safe
      pattern already used in get_a2a_tool). This prevents a caller
      passing `project_connection_id`, `index_name`, `memory_store_name`,
      `scope`, or `instance_name` through `**kwargs` from silently
      overriding the explicit security-sensitive arguments.
    * Update the README experimental note to reflect once-per-feature-id
      dedup semantics of `_feature_stage._WARNED_FEATURES` rather than
      claiming a per-factory "first use" warning.

    * feat(foundry): split FOUNDRY_TOOLS / FOUNDRY_PREVIEW_TOOLS, add bing-grounding
    
    - Add ExperimentalFeature.FOUNDRY_PREVIEW_TOOLS to distinguish wrappers around
      preview Foundry SDK tool classes (Sharepoint/Fabric/Memory/ComputerUse/
      BrowserAutomation/BingCustomSearch/A2A) from FOUNDRY_TOOLS, which is for
      GA-SDK wrappers that are simply new in agent-framework-foundry
      (AzureAISearch, BingGrounding).
    - Add get_bing_grounding_tool factory and a 'Choosing a web grounding tool'
      comparison block on get_web_search_tool / get_bing_grounding_tool /
      get_bing_custom_search_tool docstrings.
    - Drop the _require_sdk_class lazy resolver: every guarded class is available
      at azure-ai-projects>=2.1.0 (the package floor), so import them eagerly.
      Concrete return types replace 'Any'.
    - README: split the experimental factories into two tables, one per feature
      flag, with a note explaining the distinction.
    - Tests: split into FOUNDRY_TOOLS / FOUNDRY_PREVIEW_TOOLS factory cases;
      drop the obsolete missing-SDK-class ImportError test.

  • Python: Show more authentication methods in Foundry Toolbox MCP (#5719)
    * Show more authentication methods in Foundry Toolbox MCP
    
    * Remove hardcoded toolbox version num
    
    * Add Foundry MCP OAuth consent handling
    
    * Use message instead of the dedicated item type
    
    * Go back to using OAuthConsentRequestOutputItem
    
    * WIP: sample testing
    
    * Update error code
    
    * Address review on Foundry Toolbox MCP samples
    
    Reviewed feedback addressed:
    
    - Drop the branch-pinned `git+https://...@feature/...` entries from
      `04_foundry_toolbox/requirements.txt`; restore the simple comment + `mcp`
      runtime dep. The git pins were only useful while iterating on the PR and
      shouldn't ship. (eavanvalkenburg)
    
    - Fix the `/toolsets/` typo in both `04_foundry_toolbox/README.md` and
      `06_files/README.md`. Verified empirically against the
      research_toolbox in the test workspace: the toolbox MCP gateway lives at
      `/toolboxes/{name}/mcp?api-version=v1` and requires the
      `Foundry-Features: Toolboxes=V1Preview` header. `/toolsets/{name}/mcp`
      returns 403 with `preview_feature_required: Toolsets=V1Preview` (a
      different opt-in feature).
    
    - Wrap `httpx.AsyncClient(...)` in `async with ... as http_client:` in both
      samples so the connection pool is cleaned up. (Copilot reviewer)
    
    - Make the `TOOLBOX_NAME` env var consistent in both samples. Previously the
      tool name silently fell back to `"toolbox"` when `TOOLBOX_NAME` was unset,
      but `resolve_toolbox_endpoint()` still required `TOOLBOX_NAME` and would
      raise `KeyError`. The samples now resolve the endpoint once and derive the
      tool name from the resolved URL when `TOOLBOX_NAME` isn't set, so the
      local tool name always matches the upstream toolbox identity regardless
      of which env var the user set. (Copilot reviewer)
    
    - Rename `_responses.is_consent_error` to `consent_url_from_error`: the
      helper returns `str | None` (the consent URL), not a bool, so the new
      name matches behavior. Update the test class accordingly. (eavanvalkenburg)
    
    - Tighten `_handle_inner_agent`'s lazy-entry catch from `Exception` to
      `AgentFrameworkException`, the type the MCP layer actually wraps consent
      errors in via `MCPStreamableHTTPTool.__aenter__` →
      `ToolExecutionException(inner_exception=mcp_error)`. Network failures,
      cancellations, and other non-framework exceptions now propagate normally
      instead of being briefly caught and re-raised. The test helper
      `_make_consent_error` is updated to use `ToolExecutionException` so it
      matches the real-world wrapping. (eavanvalkenburg)
    
    - Clarify the `github_pat` description in `agent.manifest.yaml` to note
      it's only needed when the PAT-based connection (`github-mcp-pat-conn`)
      is chosen; users selecting the OAuth2 connection (`github-mcp-oauth-conn`)
      can leave it empty. (Copilot reviewer)
    
    Validation: ran both samples end-to-end against a real Foundry toolbox
    (`research_toolbox`) -- the samples connect successfully and the agent
    lists the toolbox's MCP tools (`api_specs___fetch_azure_rest_api_docs`,
    etc.). `uv run poe test -P foundry_hosting` passes (119 tests), pyright +
    mypy clean.

    The previous URL pointed to an old location of the toolbox supported-scenarios
    doc; the doc moved to /samples/python/hosted-agents/SUPPORTED_TOOLBOX_SCENARIOS.md
    and the old /samples/python/toolbox/azd path now 404s.

  • [BREAKING] Python: Enable instrumentation by default (#5865)
    * Enable instrumentation by default
    
    * Update samples
    
    * Optimization when span is not recording
    
    * Address Copilot comments
    
    * Revert uv.lock
    
    * Add warning
    
    * Formatting
    
    * Fix mypy
    
    * Add disable_instrumentation() with sticky user-intent semantics
    
    Add a public disable_instrumentation() entry point so users can explicitly opt
    out of Agent Framework telemetry, with a sticky-disable flag that makes the
    user's intent "leading" — no framework code path (foundry's
    configure_azure_monitor, configure_otel_providers, enable_instrumentation,
    enable_sensitive_telemetry, or direct OBSERVABILITY_SETTINGS.enable_*
    writes) can re-enable instrumentation until the user explicitly clears the
    disable with enable_instrumentation(force=True) /
    enable_sensitive_telemetry(force=True).
    
    Also addresses the two remaining unresolved review threads on the PR:
    1. test_observability_settings_defaults_instrumentation_true pins the new
       "ENABLE_INSTRUMENTATION defaults to True when env unset" behavior.
    2. test_enable_instrumentation_reads_env_sensitive_data restores coverage
       for the post-import load_dotenv() fallback path.
    
    Implementation:
    - ObservabilitySettings.enable_instrumentation / enable_sensitive_data become
      properties backed by _enable_*. While _user_disabled is True, the getters
      return False and the setters drop True writes (defense in depth so third-
      party writes can't subvert the disable).
    - Public is_user_disabled read-only property lets integrations (e.g. foundry's
      configure_azure_monitor) cheaply check the disable state without poking at
      privates.
    - enable_instrumentation() and enable_sensitive_telemetry() short-circuit with
      an info log when disabled; gain a force=True kwarg that clears the disable.
    - configure_otel_providers() still creates providers / exporters / views so a
      later force-enable can use them, but logs an info message when called while
      disabled.
    - Foundry's FoundryChatClient.configure_azure_monitor and
      FoundryAgent.configure_azure_monitor early-return when the user has
      disabled, so Azure Monitor's global providers aren't installed unnecessarily.
    
    Tests: 11 new tests covering default-on, env re-read at call time, sticky
    behavior against each re-enable surface (enable_instrumentation,
    enable_sensitive_telemetry, configure_otel_providers, direct attribute
    writes), force=True override, re-arming the disable, and the __all__ export.

    * docs: document disable_instrumentation() and force=True paths
    
    Add a "Disabling instrumentation" section to the observability sample README
    that walks through:
    
    - The distinction between the ENABLE_INSTRUMENTATION env var (initial,
      non-sticky) and disable_instrumentation() (process-wide, sticky).
    - Why the sticky semantics matter: framework integrations like
      FoundryChatClient.configure_azure_monitor() can call
      enable_instrumentation() as part of their setup, and the user's opt-out
      needs to win.
    - All five surfaces guarded by the sticky disable (property reads, public
      enable functions, configure_otel_providers, direct attribute writes,
      is_user_disabled-aware integrations).
    - The force=True escape hatch on both enable_instrumentation() and
      enable_sensitive_telemetry().
    - How third-party integrations should consult OBSERVABILITY_SETTINGS.is_user_disabled.
    - The limits of the disable (does not tear down existing providers /
      in-flight spans / third-party instrumentation, does not persist across
      processes).
    
    Cross-links the new section from the ENABLE_INSTRUMENTATION row in the env
    vars table.

    * docs: soften disable_instrumentation() overclaim about telemetry guarantees
    
    Replace 'no telemetry will be emitted no matter what' (which is too strong,
    since callers can still pass force=True or mutate private attributes) with
    language framing the disable as a user-intent contract that library and
    framework code is expected to honor: the framework actively short-circuits
    the public enable paths, force=True and private-attribute writes are
    acknowledged as out-of-contract escape hatches that integrations should
    not use on the user's behalf.

    * docs: correct observability Dependencies section
    
    - opentelemetry-sdk is no longer a hard dependency; it is lazily imported by
      create_resource(), create_metric_views(), and configure_otel_providers()
      with a clear ImportError when missing. Day-to-day instrumentation works
      with opentelemetry-api alone provided some other component configures the
      global OpenTelemetry providers (Azure Monitor, an APM agent, application
      bootstrap, etc.).
    - opentelemetry-semantic-conventions-ai is no longer used anywhere in the
      source; remove it from the listed dependencies.

    * docs: replace stale observability migration guide with current PR's only relevant migration
    
    The old guide documented the move away from setup_observability(otlp_endpoint=...)
    which was an earlier-release API change unrelated to this PR and stale enough that
    it's more confusing than helpful at this point. Replace it with a short note on the
    single migration this PR introduces: callers of
    enable_instrumentation(enable_sensitive_data=True) should switch to
    enable_sensitive_telemetry(). Cross-link to the Disabling instrumentation section
    for the rare 'force on without enabling sensitive data' use case where
    enable_instrumentation() still applies.

  • Python: Skip MCP prompt loading when unsupported (#5370)
    * Python: Skip MCP prompt loading when unsupported
    
    * Fix MCP pagination pyright checks
    
    * Simplify MCP support flag checks
  • Python: feat: add agent-framework-monty (Monty-backed CodeAct provider) (#5915)
    * Python: feat: add agent-framework-monty (Monty-backed CodeAct)
    
    New alpha package that wraps pydantic-monty (a Rust-based Python
    interpreter) behind the same CodeAct API surface as
    agent-framework-hyperlight, so users can swap providers with minimal
    code change.
    
    Public API (agent_framework_monty):
    - MontyCodeActProvider — ContextProvider that injects a run-scoped
      execute_code tool plus dynamic CodeAct instructions.
    - MontyExecuteCodeTool — standalone FunctionTool for mixed-tool agents
      or manual static wiring.
    - FileMount / FileMountInput / MountMode — public types mirroring the
      Hyperlight names, with Monty's mode (read-only/read-write/overlay)
      and write_bytes_limit on FileMount.
    
    Constructor kwargs (both classes) mirror Hyperlight where possible:
    tools, approval_mode, workspace_root, file_mounts; plus a Monty-only
    resource_limits forwarding ResourceLimits to Monty.start().
    
    Filesystem flow:
    - workspace_root auto-mounts at /input (read-write), matching Hyperlight.
    - file_mounts accepts string shorthand, (host, mount) tuple, or
      FileMount with mode + write cap.
    - Files written under read-write mounts are scanned post-execution and
      returned as Content.from_data items (mirrors Hyperlight /output).
    - overlay mounts buffer writes in-memory; read-only mounts reject writes.
    
    Internals:
    - _monty_bridge.InlineCodeBridge ports the inline (non-durable) bridge
      from anthonychu/maf-codeact-monty-python; handles FunctionSnapshot /
      FutureSnapshot pause/resume, dispatches direct typed calls + the
      call_tool fallback, forwards mount/limits to Monty.start(...).
    - generate_type_stubs emits per-tool stubs so Monty's `ty` type-checker
      rejects bad calls before any host tool runs.
    
    Alpha-policy compliance (per python-package-management skill):
    - Added agent-framework-monty = { workspace = true } to root
      pyproject.toml.
    - Added row to python/PACKAGE_STATUS.md.
    - Added monty entry under Experimental in python/AGENTS.md.
    - NOT added to core[all]; NO agent_framework.monty lazy shim (deferred
      to beta promotion).
    
    Samples (three sets, import from agent_framework_monty directly):
    - samples/02-agents/context_providers/code_act/monty_code_act.py
      (provider pattern) + updated local README.
    - samples/02-agents/tools/monty_code_interpreter/ (standalone +
      manual-wiring + README).
    - samples/04-hosting/foundry-hosted-agents/responses/11_monty_codeact/
      (full hosted-agent layout with uv-based pyproject.toml + Dockerfile,
      Azure Monitor wiring via APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRING +
      enable_instrumentation, ENABLE_INSTRUMENTATION and
      ENABLE_SENSITIVE_DATA env vars). The alpha wheel is vendored into
      ./wheels/ (gitignored) via vendor-wheel.sh; new row added to the
      parent Responses-API README.
    
    Tests:
    - 28 hermetic unit tests (stubbed pydantic_monty).
    - 18 integration tests marked @pytest.mark.integration, auto-skipped
      when pydantic_monty is unimportable; exercise the real Monty
      runtime: print round-trip, last-expression value, direct typed
      tool dispatch, call_tool fallback, async tool, asyncio.gather
      parallelism, ty type-check rejection, OS blocked by default,
      workspace_root read+write capture, read-only / overlay mount
      semantics, resource_limits.max_duration_secs abort, approval
      gating end-to-end, full Agent run with a scripted chat client.

    * Python: fix: monty FileMount test compares against the normalized POSIX path
    
    The shorthand string mount goes through _normalize_mount_path, which
    rewrites Windows drive letters like 'C:\\Users\\...' into
    '/C:/Users/...' (POSIX-style). The Windows CI runners surfaced this
    because tmp_path resolves to a backslashed Windows path; the test was
    comparing against the raw str(host_a) instead of the normalized form.
    
    Compare against _normalize_mount_path(str(host_a)) so the assertion is
    platform-independent.

    * Python: fix: address PR #5915 review feedback
    
    - _execute_code_tool docstring: clarify that the Monty backend supports
      scoped filesystem access via workspace_root / file_mounts (blocked by
      default).
    - _to_monty_mount: import pydantic_monty lazily through load_monty so
      missing-dependency errors surface as the same actionable RuntimeError
      the rest of the package raises (not a bare ImportError at module load).
      Renamed _load_monty -> load_monty for the same reason.
    - _python_type_repr: emit None for type(None) instead of Any, and
      normalize both typing.Union[...] and PEP-604 X | Y to PEP-604 syntax
      so Optional[X] / Union[..., None] / -> None signatures round-trip
      correctly through ty validation. Added a regression test.
    - _PrintCollector: track a running character count instead of
      recomputing sum(len(c) for c in self.chunks) per callback. Eliminates
      the O(n^2) cost on print-heavy code.
    - Instructions: mention that the value of the final expression is also
      returned alongside captured stdout (matches actual behavior).
    - 11_monty_codeact Dockerfile: pin ghcr.io/astral-sh/uv to 0.11.6
      instead of :latest for reproducible builds.
    - 11_monty_codeact README: replace the bare "see parent README" pointer
      with sample-specific steps (./vendor-wheel.sh + uv sync + uv run),
      since the sample uses pyproject.toml + a vendored wheel rather than
      requirements.txt.

    * Python: sample: 11_monty_codeact installs agent-framework-monty from PyPI
    
    Drop the vendored-wheel scaffolding now that agent-framework-monty is on
    PyPI as an alpha (1.0.0a*) release:
    
    - pyproject.toml: remove [tool.uv.sources] override; keep [tool.uv]
      prerelease = "allow" so uv pulls the alpha automatically.
    - Dockerfile: drop the COPY wheels/ step.
    - README: drop the ./vendor-wheel.sh setup step and the
      not-yet-on-PyPI warning.
    - Delete vendor-wheel.sh and the gitignored wheels/ directory.

    * Python: fix(monty): harden post-execution file capture against symlink escape
    
    Same class of issue as the MSRC-reported Hyperlight finding: the
    post-execution capture walked workspace_root with Path.rglob() +
    is_file() + read_bytes() - all of which follow symlinks. An attacker
    who controls the workspace (cloned repo, extracted archive, shared
    workspace) could pre-place `workspace/leak.txt -> /etc/passwd` or
    `workspace/outside_dir -> /etc/` and have host files surface as
    captured Content items.
    
    Monty's mount layer already rejects symlink reads from inside the
    sandbox across all three modes (verified empirically), so the runtime
    path was safe. This commit closes the post-execution scan path.
    
    Changes:
    - New `_iter_real_files(root)` walker that uses iterdir() +
      is_symlink() to skip symlinks at every directory level and yields
      only real files. Replaces the previous `host_root.rglob("*")` calls
      in both `_snapshot_writable_mounts` and `_capture_written_files`.
    - Use `Path.lstat()` instead of `Path.stat()` so size/mtime can never
      be taken from a symlink target.
    - Three new integration tests reproducing the MSRC attack shape
      against the workspace_root flow: symlink-to-file outside workspace,
      symlink-to-directory outside workspace, and a guard ensuring
      legitimate sandbox writes are still captured when symlinks are
      present.
    
    Per user request, hyperlight is untouched in this commit (separate fix).

    * Python: fix(monty): skip symlink regression tests when unsupported
    
    Apply the same Windows-CI safety guard as the hyperlight fix in PR #5919:
    the three symlink integration tests create symlinks via Path.symlink_to(),
    which fails with OSError / NotImplementedError on unprivileged Windows
    runners. Add a local _symlinks_supported helper (mirroring the one in
    packages/core/tests/core/test_skills.py) and pytest.skip when symlinks
    aren't available, so the tests no longer fail for environment reasons.

    * Python: fix(monty): address PR #5915 follow-up review feedback
    
    - _invoke_tool: drop the inspect.iscoroutinefunction(...) branch and
      always `await self.tool_map[name](**kwargs)`. Every entry in
      tool_map is `partial(FunctionTool.invoke, skip_parsing=True)` and
      FunctionTool.invoke is `async def`, so the branching was dead code -
      and on Python versions affected by cpython#98590,
      iscoroutinefunction(partial(bound_async_method, ...)) returns False,
      causing the bridge to take the asyncio.to_thread path, return an
      unawaited coroutine, and surface it as a JSON-serialization failure
      for every tool call. Added a regression test
      test_invoke_tool_awaits_partial_wrapped_async_method.
    
    - generate_type_stubs: skip tools whose name is not a valid Python
      identifier or is a Python keyword. FunctionTool.name has no upstream
      validation, so a name like "weird-name" produced a syntax error in
      the stubs and a name like "broken\n    pass\nasync def injected"
      would inject arbitrary stub source. Non-identifier names stay
      reachable via `call_tool("weird-name", ...)` at runtime; they just
      don't get type-checked stubs. Added regression test
      test_generate_type_stubs_skips_non_identifier_tool_names.

  • Python: Bump Python package versions for a release (#5964)
    * Bump Python package versions to 1.5.0 for a release
    
    * Promote orchestrations to 1.0.0rc1
    
    * ci(python-setup): merge dynamic exclude into existing workspace exclude
    
    The python-setup action injected exclude = [...] verbatim into
    [tool.uv.workspace], producing a duplicate 'exclude' key when the
    section already had a static exclude. Scope the rewrite to the
    [tool.uv.workspace] section and append the package to the existing
    array when present; idempotent if the package is already excluded.
    
    * Address Copilot review feedback: raise inter-package floors to 1.5.0
    
    - foundry, foundry-local: agent-framework-openai >=1.4.0 -> >=1.5.0
    - azure-contentunderstanding: agent-framework-foundry >=1.4.0 -> >=1.5.0
    - azurefunctions: pin agent-framework-durabletask to >=1.0.0b260519,<2
    
    Keeps lockstep cohort consistent and avoids mixed 1.4.x / 1.5.0 installs.
    
    * Re-include azurefunctions and durabletask in the uv workspace
    
    The pinned durabletask>=1.4.0 floor is enough to make resolution succeed;
    the workspace exclude was over-correction and broke CI samples and pyright
    type-checking (re-exports in agent_framework/azure/__init__.pyi plus
    samples/04-hosting/{azure_functions,durabletask}/ could not resolve their
    imports). Dropping them from agent-framework-core[all] still stands so the
    metapackage does not pull them.
    
    * Restore azurefunctions and durabletask in agent-framework-core[all]
    
    The durabletask floor pin keeps users on the safe 1.4.0, so they are once
    again included in the metapackage. Update CHANGELOG to reflect the pin
    rather than an [all] removal.
    
    * Raise uvicorn ceiling in ag-ui and devui to allow 0.42+
    
    The root override-dependencies pins uvicorn[standard]>=0.34.0 (no upper)
    and the workspace lock resolves to 0.47.0. The package ceiling <0.42.0
    meant the workspace was no longer testing the declared supported range.
    Bump to <1 so the lock fits within the declared bounds.
    
    Also picked up by validate-dependency-bounds: refresh stale orchestrations
    RC pin in devui dev deps.
  • Remove duplicate pop in InMemoryCacheProvider.remove (#5795)
    The second self._cache.pop(key, None) call is a guaranteed no-op: the first pop has already removed the key (or returned None), and there is no await between the two statements that could allow another coroutine to re-add it. Removing the dead line clarifies intent without changing behavior.
  • Python: fix: hyperlight skips symlinks when staging sandbox input (#5919)
    * Python: fix(hyperlight): skip symlinks when staging files into the sandbox
    
    The helpers that populate the sandbox input tree (``_copy_path`` and the
    ``_path_tree_signature`` walker used for cache invalidation) relied on
    ``Path.is_file()``, ``Path.is_dir()`` and ``shutil.copy2`` - all of which
    follow symlinks by default. When the source tree contains symlinks, that
    let entries from outside the configured input source surface inside the
    sandbox.
    
    Harden both code paths to never follow symlinks:
    
    - ``_copy_path`` now bails out via ``Path.is_symlink()`` before any
      ``is_dir()`` / ``is_file()`` check, skips non-regular files, and uses
      ``shutil.copy2(..., follow_symlinks=False)`` as defense in depth.
    - New ``_iter_real_entries`` walker replaces the previous ``Path.rglob``
      call inside ``_path_tree_signature`` (rglob follows directory symlinks).
    - ``_path_tree_signature`` switches to ``Path.lstat()`` so size/mtime are
      never read through a symlink target.
    
    Added regression tests covering:
    
    - A pre-placed file symlink in ``workspace_root`` (top level).
    - A pre-placed directory symlink in ``workspace_root``.
    - A nested file symlink inside a real subdirectory.
    - ``_path_tree_signature`` ignoring symlinks so the cache key reflects only
      what is actually staged.

    * Python: fix(hyperlight): address PR #5919 review feedback
    
    - _iter_real_entries now yields directories and regular files only,
      skipping non-regular entries (sockets/FIFOs/devices). Keeps the
      cache-key signature consistent with what _copy_path actually stages.
    - The four new symlink regression tests skip when the platform does not
      support symlink creation (e.g. unprivileged Windows runners), via a
      local _symlinks_supported helper modelled on the one in
      packages/core/tests/core/test_skills.py. Prevents OSError /
      NotImplementedError from failing CI jobs that have nothing to do with
      the change under test.

    * Python: fix(hyperlight): address PR #5919 follow-up review feedback
    
    - _copy_path docstring: narrow the scope to "symlink entries present in
      the source tree at rest" and explicitly call out that the copy is NOT
      atomic with respect to concurrent mutation of the source tree.
      Callers who need that stronger guarantee should snapshot their
      workspace before passing it in. Avoids overpromising on a TOCTOU
      window that pathlib cannot express; closing it properly would need
      fd-based traversal (O_NOFOLLOW | O_DIRECTORY + os.scandir(fd)) with
      a separate Windows story, which is out of scope for this targeted
      fix.
    
    - _path_tree_signature: drop the `if path.is_symlink(): return ()`
      short-circuit. Resolve a symlink root to its real target before
      walking instead. The public construction flow already resolves
      workspace_root / file_mounts[].host_path up front so this never
      affected user-facing code, but the short-circuit was misleading and
      would have produced an empty, stable signature for any direct
      caller that builds a _RunConfig without going through the public
      constructor. Defense in depth: even if a future call site forgets
      to resolve the root, the cache key still reflects real contents.
    
    - Added regression test
      test_path_tree_signature_walks_through_symlinked_root: a symlinked
      workspace root must produce a non-empty signature, AND the signature
      must change when the real target's contents change so the cache key
      actually invalidates.

  • Python: Record actual served model from Azure OpenAI (#5910)
    * Record actual served model as response model for Azure OpenAI
    
    * Formatting
    
    * Fix tests
    
    * Fix pipeline error
    
    * Comments
    
    * Address review: surface served model via ChatResponse.model
    
    Apply blocking review feedback from PR #5910:
    
    - Use ChatResponse.model / ChatResponseUpdate.model as the source of truth
      for the Azure x-ms-served-model header value, instead of stashing it in
      additional_properties and overriding it again in observability.
      Observability already reads response.model; the chat client now overwrites
      it post-parse when the served-model header is present. Empirically the
      Azure Responses API returns the deployment alias in body.model and the
      actual snapshot (e.g. gpt-5-nano-2025-08-07) in this header.
    
    - Move the AZURE_OPENAI_SERVED_MODEL_HEADER constant out of observability.py
      and into RawOpenAIChatClient (as the SERVED_MODEL_HEADER ClassVar). The
      header is Azure-OpenAI-Responses-API-specific so observability does not
      need to know about it.
    
    - Revert the streaming text_format path to client.responses.stream(...) and
      drop the _pydantic_model_to_text_format_param helper. That helper imported
      from openai.lib._parsing._responses (a private SDK path) and the swap to
      responses.create(stream=True) dropped client-side output_parsed for
      structured-output streaming. The streaming-with-text_format path is the
      only one that does not surface the served-model header - documented inline.
    
    - Wrap the raw streaming responses in async with so the underlying socket
      closes deterministically (continuation_token retrieve + create paths).
    
    - Fix the empty-string / whitespace-only header at the source by stripping
      in _extract_served_model and returning None when nothing remains.
    
    - Revert unrelated formatting-only churn in _skills.py and test_mcp.py.
    
    - Update unit tests to assert against chat_response.model / update.model
      and add an aggregated streaming assertion plus a pin that the
      streaming-with-text_format path does not get the header.
    
    Verified end-to-end against Azure OpenAI Responses API: deployment alias
    gpt-5-nano now reports gpt-5-nano-2025-08-07 as ChatResponse.model in both
    the non-streaming and streaming paths.

    matches the pattern already used in the streaming paths and folds the
    explanatory docstring onto `_extract_served_model` (which is now the
    single place that knows about the header).

  • Python: Improve the handling of intermediate outputs for workflows and orchestrations (#5623)
    * Improve the handling of intermediate outputs for workflows and orchestrations
    
    * Address PR review feedback on intermediate output forwarding
    
    - Switch workflow.as_agent() forwarding to an explicit allowlist of {output,
      intermediate, data, request_info} so orchestration-internal events
      (group_chat, handoff_sent, magentic_orchestrator) stay inside the workflow
      instead of leaking into agent responses via str(data) coercion.
    - Stop raising on intermediate AgentResponseUpdate in non-streaming run();
      surface the partial as a Message with text_reasoning content. The defensive
      raise still applies to terminal output events, where Update payloads would
      corrupt message ordering.
    - Extend the DevUI workflow-event mapper so intermediate yields wrapping
      plain strings, Messages, and list[Message] render as visible output items
      instead of generic completed-trace events.
    - Add orchestration coverage for GroupChat, Handoff, and Magentic builders
      (default vs intermediate_outputs=True; structural where end-to-end is heavy).
    
    * Lift output-designation policy into a value type
    
    Replace the ``Workflow._output_executors`` list and the
    ``RunnerContext.should_label_as_intermediate`` Protocol method with a single
    immutable ``OutputDesignation`` value type owned by ``Workflow``. Thread the
    designation as a parameter through the existing call chain (Runner ->
    EdgeRunner -> Executor -> WorkflowContext) so ``yield_output`` consults the
    threaded snapshot directly rather than calling back into the runner context.
    
    Removes the ``InProcRunnerContext._workflow`` back-reference and the
    ``WorkflowBuilder.build()`` assignment that wired it up. Adds the public
    predicate ``Workflow.is_terminal_executor(executor_id)`` for external
    observers; ``OutputDesignation`` itself stays package-internal.
    
    Key decisions
    - ``OutputDesignation.designated`` is ``frozenset[str] | None`` -- ``None``
      preserves legacy "every yield is type='output'" behavior, any frozenset
      (including empty) opts into strict mode. The ``DeprecationWarning`` for
      legacy mode at build time is unchanged.
    - ``output_designation`` is an optional parameter on ``Runner``,
      ``EdgeRunner.send_message``, ``EdgeRunner._execute_on_target``,
      ``Executor.execute``, ``Executor._create_context_for_handler``, and
      ``WorkflowContext.__init__``. Each defaults to legacy ``OutputDesignation()``
      so direct callers (Azure Functions ``CapturingRunnerContext``,
      ``test_runner`` recording fixtures) keep working without ceremony.
    - The workflow-level filter in ``_run_core`` reads ``self._output_designation``
      live, preserving today's semantics where mutating the designation after
      build still affects subsequent runs (used by two existing tests).
    - ``Workflow.to_dict()`` continues to emit ``"output_executors":
      list[str] | None`` (sorted from the frozenset). Checkpoint format unchanged.
    
    Files changed
    - _workflow.py: add ``OutputDesignation`` dataclass; replace
      ``_output_executors`` with ``_output_designation``; add
      ``is_terminal_executor``; delete ``_should_yield_output_event``.
    - _runner_context.py: drop ``should_label_as_intermediate`` Protocol method
      and ``InProcRunnerContext`` impl; drop ``_workflow`` back-reference.
    - _workflow_builder.py: remove ``context._workflow = workflow`` assignment.
    - _runner.py, _edge_runner.py, _executor.py, _workflow_context.py: thread
      ``output_designation`` parameter through the call chain.
    - tests/workflow/test_output_designation.py (new): three-state coverage of
      the value type plus the public predicate delegation.
    - tests/workflow/test_workflow_builder.py, test_validation.py,
      test_workflow.py, test_runner.py and
      orchestrations/tests/test_orchestration_intermediate_vs_terminal.py:
      switch probes from ``_output_executors`` set checks to
      ``get_output_executors`` / ``is_terminal_executor``; update two
      post-build mutation tests to set ``_output_designation`` instead.
    
    Verification
    - core/tests/workflow/, orchestrations/tests/, azurefunctions/tests/:
      1119 passed, 42 skipped, 2 xfailed.
    - ``uv run poe lint``: clean.
    - ``uv run poe typing``: only the pre-existing
      ``_AGENT_FORWARDED_EVENT_TYPES`` pyright warning from 394bcd607 remains.
    
    Notes for next iteration
    - The builder's own ``_output_executors`` attribute (``list[Executor |
      SupportsAgentRun]``) is intentionally untouched; the issue scoped the
      rename to the workflow attribute.
    - Adjacent review candidates (twin ``WorkflowAgent`` translators,
      ``_AGENT_FORWARDED_EVENT_TYPES`` kind classifier,
      ``_event_origin_context`` ContextVar removal, ``WorkflowEvent`` ADT
      split, legacy-mode removal) remain out of scope.
    
    * Add explicit workflow output designation
    
    Key decisions
    
    - Extend the internal OutputDesignation value type from terminal-only membership to output/intermediate/hidden classification. Legacy mode remains outputs=None, so workflows built without output_executors or intermediate_executors still label every yield_output as type='output'.
    
    - WorkflowBuilder now accepts intermediate_executors. Providing either designation enters explicit mode; output executors emit output, intermediate executors emit intermediate, and unlisted yield_output payloads are hidden from caller-facing events while remaining in executor_completed data.
    
    - Empty explicit designation, duplicate entries, overlaps, unknown executors, and designated executors without workflow output annotations fail build validation. Existing orchestration builders pass intermediate-capable participants through intermediate_executors to preserve current intermediate_outputs behavior until participant-oriented designation lands.

    * Tighten workflow-as-agent output mapping
    
    Key decisions
    
    - Treat AgentResponseUpdate as a streaming-only payload across the workflow.as_agent() adapter, so non-streaming agent runs now reject both terminal output and intermediate workflow events carrying updates.
    - Keep streaming classification behavior explicit: terminal update payloads remain normal text content, while intermediate update payloads are rewritten to text_reasoning content.
    - Add explicit-mode coverage proving hidden yield_output emissions do not appear in non-streaming AgentResponse messages or streaming AgentResponseUpdate chunks.

    * Migrate samples to explicit output designation
    
    Key decisions
    
    - Replace sample usage of the removed orchestration intermediate_outputs boolean with participant-oriented intermediate_participants designation.
    - Update raw workflow guidance to show output_executors together with intermediate_executors, and document that unlisted yields are hidden in explicit designation mode.
    - Keep orchestration final outputs terminal while streaming designated participant responses as intermediate progress, including workflow.as_agent() samples where intermediates map to text_reasoning content.
    - Refresh workflow and orchestration README guidance plus the changelog reference so public docs no longer point users at intermediate_outputs.

    * Render DevUI intermediate workflow outputs
    
    Key decisions
    
    - Preserve workflow output designation metadata on visible DevUI output messages and text deltas so intermediate/data emissions remain distinguishable from terminal output.
    - Render intermediate workflow message items in the execution timeline using executor metadata, while excluding them from the final workflow result aggregation.

    * Fix mypy
    
    * Clarify orchestration participant output config
    
    * Rename participant output kwargs for clarity
    
    output_participants -> final_output_from, intermediate_participants ->
    intermediate_output_from. The old names read like categories of
    participant; the new names make it clear the kwarg designates which
    participants' outputs surface as final vs. intermediate events.
    
    * Rename core workflow output kwargs with deprecation shim
    
    Adds final_output_from / intermediate_output_from as canonical kwargs on
    Workflow and WorkflowBuilder. Old output_executors / intermediate_executors
    kwargs continue to work but emit DeprecationWarning via a shared coalesce
    helper that also rejects supplying both. Wire-format keys in to_dict()
    stay as output_executors / intermediate_executors so checkpoint
    compatibility is preserved.
    
    Internal call sites in orchestrations and samples updated to the new
    names so users following sample code learn the canonical vocabulary;
    legacy callers still work with a one-shot warning.
    
    * Suppress pyright reportPrivateUsage on cross-module sentinel import
    
    * Update docstrings
    
    * Propagate sub-workflow intermediate outputs, fix handoff/sequential intermediate-only designation, and shore up tests, sample, and docstrings around the intermediate output contract.
    
    * Add canonical workflow output_from selection
    
    Key decisions:\n- Make output_from the canonical workflow-output allow-list and keep output_executors/final_output_from as deprecated compatibility aliases.\n- Treat empty output_from/intermediate_output_from lists as explicit selections and keep validation responsible for empty, duplicate, overlap, and unknown selections.\n- Remove the branch-only public intermediate_executors WorkflowBuilder kwarg while preserving legacy wire keys in to_dict().\n\nFiles changed:\n- packages/core/agent_framework/_workflows/_workflow.py\n- packages/core/agent_framework/_workflows/_workflow_builder.py\n- packages/core/agent_framework/_workflows/_workflow_context.py\n- packages/core/agent_framework/_workflows/_agent.py\n- packages/core/agent_framework/_workflows/_agent_executor.py\n- packages/core/tests/workflow/* output-selection coverage updates\n- packages/core/AGENTS.md\n- issues/done/001-canonical-list-based-output-selection.md\n\nBlockers/notes:\n- Orchestration builders still pass final_output_from internally; follow-up issue 004 should migrate them to output_from.\n- Legacy omitted-selection behavior and explicit all/all_other literals are left for issues 002 and 003.
    
    * Add explicit all workflow output selection
    
    Key decisions:
    - Treat output_from='all' as an explicit workflow-output selection sentinel and expand it at build time to executors with declared workflow output types.
    - Keep omitted output selections in legacy all-output mode with a deprecation warning that names output_from and intermediate_output_from and points to output_from='all'.
    - Reject intermediate_output_from='all' at construction because the all-output literal is output-only for this issue.

    * Add all-other intermediate output selection
    
    Key decisions:
    - Treat intermediate_output_from='all_other' as an explicit intermediate-output selection sentinel and expand it at build time after the workflow graph is complete.
    - Expand all_other to output-capable executors not selected by output_from; omitted or empty output_from selects no workflow outputs, while output_from='all' leaves an empty intermediate selection.
    - Keep output_from='all_other' invalid so all_other remains intermediate-output-only and runtime classification still receives concrete executor-id sets.

    Key decisions:
    - Expose output_from on sequential, concurrent, group chat, handoff, and magentic builders while keeping final_output_from as a deprecated compatibility alias.
    - Resolve orchestration participant selections through the same explicit rules as workflows: output_from='all', intermediate_output_from='all_other', hidden unselected participant payloads, and overlap/duplicate/unknown/invalid-literal validation.
    - Continue preserving documented orchestration defaults by always designating each pattern's terminal internal executor where applicable.

    * Document workflow output selection contract
    
    Key decisions:
    - Use Workflow Output and Intermediate Output as the developer-facing terms for selected caller-facing emissions.
    - Document output_from and intermediate_output_from as the canonical API, with output_from as an allow-list and unselected payloads hidden unless explicitly selected as intermediate.
    - Add scenario and invalid-selection tables for workflow and orchestration docs, including legacy omission warnings, output_from='all', intermediate_output_from='all_other', list selections, invalid literals, overlap, duplicates, unknown selections, and empty explicit selections.
    - Migrate samples away from final_output_from and output_executors except where compatibility aliases are explicitly documented.

    tools) to CopilotClient.create_session, dropping any tools contributed by
    context providers via session_context.extend_tools() during before_run.
    
    Merge provider-contributed tools into runtime_options in both _run_impl and
    _stream_updates before session creation, mirroring how RawAgent handles the
    merge at lines 1435-1440 in _agents.py. Update _create_session and
    _resume_session to combine self._tools with the merged runtime tools.

  • Python: Parse YAML block scalars in SKILL.md frontmatter (#5863)
    The frontmatter parser previously matched only single-line `key: value` pairs, so block scalar indicators (`|` literal, `>` folded, with chomping `-`/`+`) were silently truncated to the indicator character. Multi-line descriptions like `description: >\n  ...` lost their content.
    
    Add `_parse_yaml_scalar_value()` which detects block scalar indicators, collects indented continuation lines, strips the common leading indentation, joins per scalar style (newlines for `|`, spaces for `>`), and applies chomping per the YAML 1.2 spec. Update `_extract_frontmatter()` to use the helper for unquoted values.
    
    Adds 15 unit tests covering literal/folded styles, all chomping variants, indentation handling, content containing colons, non-description fields, tab indentation, blank-line preservation, and a regression test for plain values.
    
    Fixes #5713.

  • Python: Support list[str] arguments for file-based skill scripts (#5850)
    Port of .NET PR #5475. Broadens the args type from dict[str, Any] | None
    to dict[str, Any] | list[str] | None across the skill script API surface,
    enabling CLI-style argv forwarding to subprocess scripts.
    
    Changes:
    - SkillScript.run(), InlineSkillScript.run(), FileSkillScript.run(): widen
      args type; InlineSkillScript rejects list with TypeError
    - FileSkillScript.parameters_schema: returns array-of-strings schema
    - FileSkill.content: appends <scripts> block with parameters_schema
    - SkillScriptRunner protocol: widen args type
    - SkillsProvider._run_skill_script: widen args type
    - run_skill_script tool schema: accept object, array, or null
    - subprocess_script_runner sample: accept list[str], reject dict
    - class_based_skill sample: fix missing SkillFrontmatter wrapper

  • [BREAKING] Python: Align file skill folder discovery with agentskills.io spec (#5807)
    * Align Python FileSkillsSource with agentskills.io spec
    
    Update FileSkillsSource to scan spec-defined subdirectories instead of
    recursive rglob for resource and script discovery:
    
    - Resources: scan 'references/' and 'assets/' (was: entire skill tree)
    - Scripts: scan 'scripts/' (was: entire skill tree)
    - Add resource_directories and script_directories parameters for
      customization, with '.' root indicator for skill root files
    - Add directory validation: reject '..' traversal, absolute paths, empty
      names; normalize separators and deduplicate directories
    - Non-recursive scanning within each configured directory (top-level only)
    - Containment check validates files against target directory, not just
      skill root, for stronger path-traversal defense
    - Case-insensitive directory deduplication via os.path.normcase()
    - Cross-platform absolute path rejection in directory validation
    - Sort discovery results for stable ordering
    - Update SkillsProvider.from_paths() to pass new parameters through

  • [BREAKING] Python: DevUI: tighten default access controls and CORS posture (#5740)
    * Python: DevUI: tighten default access controls and CORS posture
    
    Adjusts the default configuration of the DevUI server so the out-of-the-box
    posture matches what most callers expect when running locally. Adds explicit
    opt-outs for callers who need the previous behavior.
    
    - DevServer gains auth_enabled and auth_token constructor params; auth is on by
      default. Auto-generates and logs a token when none provided.
    - CORS default is an empty allowlist on every host. Callers wanting cross-origin
      pass cors_origins explicitly.
    - Streaming /v1/responses no longer sets Access-Control-Allow-Origin directly;
      CORSMiddleware owns all CORS decisions.
    - Loopback binds enforce a Host-header allowlist.
    - /meta moved out of the auth bypass list (was alongside /health and /).
    - serve() default flipped to auth_enabled=True; passes auth args through to
      DevServer instead of using env-var indirection.
    - CLI: --auth opt-in replaced with --no-auth opt-out; --auth-token preserved.
    - Tests cover the eight behaviors above in test_server.py.
    
    * Python: DevUI: address PR review comments
    
    - /meta now derives auth_required from self.auth_enabled instead of
      reading DEVUI_AUTH_TOKEN, so the auto-generated and explicit
      auth_token paths report correctly.
    - Reorder middleware so the loopback Host-header allowlist is registered
      last; Starlette wraps later-added middleware around earlier-added ones,
      so the host check now runs outermost (before CORS/auth) as intended.
    - Rework comments to describe the behavior rather than threat scenarios.
    - Streaming-headers and CORS tests now construct the server with an
      explicit auth_token and send a Bearer header, so the assertions
      actually exercise the streaming/CORS path instead of short-circuiting
      in the auth middleware.
  • Python: Strip server-issued response item IDs under storage (#3295) (#5690)
    Fixes microsoft/agent-framework#3295. When the OpenAI Responses chat
    client sends a request that carries previous_response_id / conversation_id
    / conversation, the server already has the prior turn's response items
    and rejects duplicates with "Duplicate item found with id fc_xxx". The
    chat client was re-sending them inline whenever the input messages still
    carried the items in additional_properties (workflow replay, history
    providers, etc.), which broke any tool-using agent with persistent
    history.
    
    Decisions:
    - Single chokepoint: _prepare_message_for_openai. When the resulting
      request uses service-side storage, drop function_call, reasoning,
      approval-request/response, and local-shell-call items from the wire
      input. Keep function_result with its call_id; the server pairs it to
      the prior function_call via that key.
    - function_result is preserved unconditionally except for the local-shell
      variant, which carries its own server-issued item id.
    - No public API change. Wire format change is subtractive and only on
      requests that would otherwise 400.
    - Re-pointed the strict-xfail in test_full_conversation.py from #4047 to
      #3295. Kept xfail because the test asserts executor-level session-id
      clearing, which is the defense-in-depth half tracked by 3295-03; this
      slice closes the wire-level half.
    
    Files:
    - python/packages/openai/agent_framework_openai/_chat_client.py: strip
      rule applied alongside the existing reasoning-item branch.
    - python/packages/openai/tests/openai/test_openai_chat_client.py: four
      new tests pin the contract (function_call, approval, local-shell-call
      stripped under storage; everything kept without storage). Updated
      pre-existing tests that exercised the storage-on path to either pass
      request_uses_service_side_storage=False explicitly or assert the new
      strip behavior.
    - python/packages/foundry/tests/foundry/test_foundry_chat_client.py:
      same explicit storage-off opt-in for the inherited test.
    - python/packages/core/tests/workflow/test_full_conversation.py:
      re-pointed xfail reason to #3295 and the executor-level follow-up.
    
    Notes for next iteration:
    - 3295-01 (HITL wire-format validation against live OpenAI/Foundry) was
      not run; it requires the user's API credentials. The PRD design is
      locked but the empirical confirmation is still pending. If script 3
      fails on either provider, this slice may need to be revisited.
    - 3295-03 (clear service_session_id in AgentExecutor on full-history
      replay) remains open. After it lands the xfail in
      test_full_conversation.py can be removed.
    - pytest was not run in this iteration because uv-based pytest commands
      required interactive approval. Validation rests on careful reading;
      next iteration should run the openai + core test suites.

  • Python: fix: prevent MCP message_handler deadlock on notification reload (#4866)
    * fix(python): prevent MCP message_handler deadlock on notification reload
    
    When an MCP server sends a notifications/tools/list_changed or
    notifications/prompts/list_changed notification, the message_handler
    previously awaited load_tools()/load_prompts() directly. Since the
    handler runs on the MCP SDK's single-threaded receive loop, this
    caused a deadlock: load_tools() sends a list_tools request and waits
    for its response, but the receive loop cannot deliver that response
    while blocked in the handler.
    
    This manifested as a timeout in call_tool(), which then surfaced as
    "Error: Function failed." to the model instead of the real tool
    output. The MATLAB MCP server reliably triggers this because it sends
    a tools/list_changed notification during tool execution.
    
    Fix: schedule reloads as background asyncio.Tasks via a new
    _schedule_reload() helper, freeing the receive loop immediately.

    Key decisions:
    - Add TOOL_RESULT_DISPLAY_KEY and make state_update accept optional state plus a tool_result display payload.
    - Keep text as the LLM-bound tool result while using the display marker only for ToolCallResultEvent.content.
    - Reuse one outer/inner Content additional_properties extraction helper for state and display markers, preserving fallback behavior when display is absent.

    - SamplesValidationBase: 60s -> 120s default timeout
    - ConsoleAppSamplesValidation: 90s -> 150s for long-running tests
    - AzureFunctions SamplesValidation: 2min -> 3min orchestration timeout,
      60s -> 90s per-step WaitForConditionAsync timeouts

    - Replace rigid 2-cycle assertion with flexible approval logic that handles
      extra review cycles from LLM non-determinism
    
    Fixes the two failure modes identified in #4971:
    1. Timeout: 120s/90s was insufficient for multiple LLM calls under CI load
    2. Extra notifications: Assert.Fail on 3rd+ review cycle was too rigid

    * Increase AzureFunctions LongRunningTools test timeouts from 90s to 180s
    
    The LongRunningToolsSampleValidationAsync test in the AzureFunctions integration
    tests was failing in CI with TimeoutException at the 'Content published
    notification is logged' step. The 90-second timeouts are too tight for CI
    environments where LLM calls and orchestration overhead can be slow.
    
    Increased all three WaitForConditionAsync timeouts from 90s to 180s:
    - Waiting for human feedback notification
    - Waiting for publish notification (the step that was failing)
    - Waiting for orchestration completion

    * Add RetryFact to DurableTask and AzureFunctions integration tests
    
    These tests interact with LLMs via stdin/stdout (DurableTask) or HTTP
    (AzureFunctions) and are inherently non-deterministic. Unlike the Python
    side which uses pytest-retry, the dotnet tests had no retry mechanism
    and a single transient failure would fail the entire CI run.
    
    Changes:
    - Switch [Fact] to [RetryFact(2, 5000)] on all LLM-dependent tests
      across ConsoleAppSamplesValidation, ExternalClientTests,
      WorkflowConsoleAppSamplesValidation, and AzureFunctions SamplesValidation
    - Add re-prompt mechanism to LongRunningToolsSampleValidationAsync:
      if the LLM doesn't invoke the tool within 60s, re-send the prompt
      (up to 2 retries) instead of burning the full timeout
    - Reduce LongRunningTools timeout from 240s to 180s (re-prompt makes
      the extra buffer unnecessary)
    - Leave simple/deterministic tests as [Fact] (SingleAgent, unit tests)

    * Fix temperature converter skill: make resource necessary for script
    
    Refactor TemperatureConverterSkill so the agent must read the
    formulas resource (factor/offset) before calling the script,
    aligning with the volume-converter pattern.
    
    - Resource: numeric factor/offset table instead of symbolic formulas
    - Script: generic linear transform (value * factor + offset)
    - Instructions: updated to reflect new workflow

  • Python: Fix MCPStreamableHTTPTool leaking asyncio.CancelledError when MCP server is unreachable (#5687)
    * fix: wrap asyncio.CancelledError in ToolException in _connect_on_owner (#5667)
    
    asyncio.CancelledError is a BaseException (not Exception) in Python 3.8+.
    When an MCP server is unreachable, the MCP library's internal anyio task
    group raises CancelledError, which escaped all three 'except Exception'
    handlers in _connect_on_owner(). This propagated through
    _run_lifecycle_owner -> _run_on_lifecycle_owner -> connect -> __aenter__,
    bypassing user except Exception blocks entirely.
    
    Fix: change the three except-Exception clauses in _connect_on_owner to
    'except (Exception, asyncio.CancelledError)' so spurious CancelledErrors
    from the MCP transport layer are caught and wrapped in ToolException,
    consistent with the method's documented contract.

    * fix(mcp): propagate genuine task CancelledError in connect() (#5667)
    
    On Python >= 3.11, check task.cancelling() > 0 before wrapping
    CancelledError as ToolException in the three except blocks inside
    _connect_on_owner(). When the current task is being cancelled by its
    caller, the CancelledError now propagates after cleanup, consistent
    with the existing pattern at _mcp.py:560-564 and _runner.py:115-120.
    
    On Python < 3.11 task.cancelling() is unavailable, so MCP-internal
    CancelledErrors still cannot be reliably distinguished from
    caller-driven cancellation; they continue to be wrapped as
    ToolException with a comment documenting the trade-off.
    
    Tests:
    - Add cleanup assertion to transport-creation CancelledError test
    - Add MCPStdioTool variants exercising the 'command' message branches
      for both transport-creation and initialize CancelledError paths
    - Add Python 3.11+-gated tests verifying genuine task cancellation
      propagates (and still cleans up) for transport and initialize stages

    * fix(mcp): log CancelledError with exc_info before wrapping in ToolException (#5667)
    
    CancelledError inherits from BaseException (not Exception) on Python >= 3.8,
    so the 'inner_exception=ex if isinstance(ex, Exception) else None' guard
    always yields None for CancelledError. This means ToolException.__init__
    calls logger.log(level, message, exc_info=None), dropping the traceback.
    
    Add an explicit logger.debug(error_msg, exc_info=ex) before each
    raise ToolException(...) in the three CancelledError handlers so the
    full traceback is preserved in debug logs when MCP-internal cancellation
    is wrapped rather than propagated.

    - Fix session-creation ToolException message to include exception details
      (e.g. 'Failed to create MCP session: <ex>') matching the transport and
      initialize failure paths
    - Change exc_info=ex to exc_info=True in all three logger.debug() calls
      for idiomatic logging
    - Add tests for _should_propagate_cancelled_error helper
    - Add regression test asserting session error message includes exception text

    * refactor: factor out _close_and_check_cancelled helper in _connect_on_owner
    
    Addresses review comment on PR #5687:
    
    1. Add _close_and_check_cancelled() helper method that combines
       _safe_close_exit_stack() + _should_propagate_cancelled_error() into a
       single await-able call. This eliminates the duplicated close-then-check
       pattern that appeared identically in all three connect phases (transport,
       session, initialize), reducing future drift risk.
    
    2. Comments 2 and 3 (missing {ex} in session error message and non-idiomatic
       exc_info=ex) were already addressed in the current code: all error messages
       include {ex} and all logger.debug calls use exc_info=True.
    
    3. Add test_connect_genuine_cancellation_during_session_creation_propagates
       to cover the previously untested genuine-cancellation path in the
       session-creation phase (transport and initialize phases already had tests).

  • Python: Core: notify agent of external AgentModeProvider mode changes (#5650)
    When the operating mode is changed externally (e.g. via a slash-command handler
    calling set_agent_mode), the agent's chat history still shows the prior set_mode
    tool call near the end. Updating only the system instructions is insufficient —
    models tend to anchor on the recent tool call and ignore the new mode.
    
    Mirror the .NET AgentModeProvider behavior: when set_agent_mode detects an actual
    mode change, record the previous mode in provider state. On the next before_run,
    the provider pops that flag and injects a user-role notification message
    announcing the switch, so the most recent context unambiguously reflects the
    current mode. The agent-driven set_mode tool path bypasses this so it does not
    trigger a redundant notification on its own change.

    * Python: Remove bespoke Foundry toolbox helpers; standardize on MCP for toolbox consumption
    
    Fixes #5670
    
    * fix(#5670): resolve toolbox endpoint from TOOLBOX_NAME fallback; add namespace regression tests
    
    - Add _resolve_toolbox_endpoint() helper in 04_foundry_toolbox/main.py and
      06_files/main.py that prefers FOUNDRY_TOOLBOX_ENDPOINT but falls back to
      deriving the MCP URL from FOUNDRY_PROJECT_ENDPOINT + TOOLBOX_NAME — fixing
      the startup KeyError when agents are deployed via azd provision (which injects
      TOOLBOX_NAME, not FOUNDRY_TOOLBOX_ENDPOINT).
    - Update 04_foundry_toolbox/.env.example to use FOUNDRY_TOOLBOX_ENDPOINT
      (consistent with 06_files).
    - Add TOOLBOX_NAME env var to 06_files/agent.yaml so deployed agents have it
      available for the fallback derivation.
    - Update both READMEs to document the two ways to supply the toolbox endpoint.
    - Add test_foundry_namespace_no_longer_exposes_toolbox_helpers() with negative
      assertions for FoundryHostedToolType, get_toolbox_tool_name,
      get_toolbox_tool_type, and select_toolbox_tools — guarding against accidental

    Addresses review feedback for #5670:
    
    - In _resolve_toolbox_endpoint() (04_foundry_toolbox/main.py and
      06_files/main.py) change the walrus-operator check from a truthy
      test to an explicit 'is not None' guard.  An explicitly set empty
      string now raises ValueError immediately with a clear message
      instead of silently falling through to the fallback URL
      construction.
    
    - Add tests/samples/hosting/test_toolbox_endpoint.py covering both
      sample modules:
        (a) FOUNDRY_TOOLBOX_ENDPOINT set → returned as-is
        (b) FOUNDRY_TOOLBOX_ENDPOINT set to empty string → ValueError
        (c) fallback constructs URL from FOUNDRY_PROJECT_ENDPOINT + TOOLBOX_NAME,
            stripping trailing slashes

    BedrockChatClient was sending toolConfig.toolChoice even when no tools

    be present whenever toolChoice is specified, causing a 400 validation
    error.
    
    Only set toolChoice when tool_config has a 'tools' key present.

       necessary imports and would fail with NameError.
    
    2. Change tool_choice='required' handling to raise ValueError when no
       tools are configured instead of silently falling through. Using
       'required' without tools is a logical contradiction — the model
       must invoke a tool but none exist — so surfacing this as a
       ValueError helps callers catch the misconfiguration early.
    
    3. Update the corresponding test to expect ValueError instead of
       silently omitted toolConfig.

  • Python: Fix hyperlight WasmSandbox cross-thread Drop and harden hosted-agent sample (#5603)
    * update hyperlight to beta and move samples, add hosted agent sample
    
    * Python: Fix hyperlight WasmSandbox cross-thread Drop and harden sample
    
    Root cause: when a worker-side closure raised, the exception's __traceback__
    retained frame locals that included the partially constructed PyO3 sandbox.
    Future.result() re-raised that exception on the caller thread, and when the
    caller's exception was eventually GC'd the frame locals were released
    off-thread, dec_ref'ing the unsendable sandbox from the wrong thread and
    tripping the PyO3 panic
    '_native_wasm::WasmSandbox is unsendable, but is being dropped on another thread'.
    
    Fix:
    * Add _SandboxWorker._run_on_worker which catches every exception on the
      worker, drops __traceback__ there, deletes the original exception, and
      re-raises a fresh instance on the caller thread. initialize and execute
      route through it; dispose keeps its bare-submit semantics.
    * Add an opt-in diagnostic module _drop_diagnostic (no-op unless
      HYPERLIGHT_TRACE_DROPS=1) that installs a sys.unraisablehook and dumps
      owner-thread + per-thread stacks on any future cross-thread unsendable
      Drop. Useful for triaging similar PyO3 regressions.
    * Tests: cross-thread invocation, traceback-leak isolation, _SandboxEntry
      attribute-shape check, and a stale-reference stress test driven through
      asyncio.to_thread.
    
    Sample (samples/04-hosting/foundry-hosted-agents/responses/06_hyperlight_codeact):
    * Dockerfile installs agent-framework-* from in-tree source with python/ as
      build context so unreleased fixes can be validated end-to-end.
    * call_server.py pins the Responses API version.
    * main.py enables include_detailed_errors=True so future tool failures
      surface the actual exception text instead of a bare 'Error: Function
      failed.' string.
    * README.md documents the in-tree-package build and the Hyperlight
      hypervisor requirement (/dev/kvm on Linux, MSHV on Windows). Hosted
      environments without hypervisor passthrough surface 'No Hypervisor was
      found for Sandbox'; this is a hosting constraint, not a hyperlight bug.
    
    Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
    
    * Python: remove _drop_diagnostic from hyperlight package
    
    The diagnostic module was useful while bisecting the cross-thread Drop bug,
    but it is no longer needed now that _SandboxWorker._run_on_worker prevents
    the panic at the source.

    * Python: address PR review feedback on hyperlight

    - Align agent.yaml model deployment with manifest (gpt-4.1-mini).
    - Tighten Dockerfile requirements guard; drop dangling deploy.ps1 reference.
    - Preserve exception args when sanitizing tracebacks in _run_on_worker.
    - Add public _SandboxWorker.is_alive(); update test to avoid private attr.
    - Add namespace coverage tests for agent_framework.hyperlight lazy loader.
    - Add prominent note: Foundry hosted-agent runtime does not yet support
      Hyperlight (no hypervisor exposed); container works locally with /dev/kvm.

    - TodoStore.load_state/save_state are now async; TodoFileStore performs
      disk I/O via asyncio.to_thread so the event loop is no longer blocked
      while the per-session mutation lock is held.
    - TodoSessionStore now raises ValueError for malformed top-level state
      (non-dict / non-list 'items' / non-int 'next_id') to match the
      TodoFileStore contract instead of silently re-defaulting.
    - Both stores now clamp next_id to max(item.id) + 1 after load to make
      ID collisions impossible after recovery or reconfiguration.
    - TodoFileStore writes atomically by writing a sibling temp file and
      os.replace-ing it so a crash mid-write cannot truncate the state file.
    - TodoFileStore.load_state no longer creates parent directories for
      sessions that never write; mkdir is deferred to save_state.
    - TodoProvider mutation locks now live in a weakref.WeakKeyDictionary
      keyed by AgentSession, so locks for GC'd sessions are evicted instead
      of leaking in long-running services.
    
    Tests cover each change including a TodoFileStore-backed end-to-end
    provider flow, atomic-write recovery, and lock GC eviction.

  • Python: Fix incorrect workflow timings in DevUI by adding created_at to executor events (#5615)
    * fix(devui): add created_at to custom output item events for correct workflow timings (#5545)
    
    CustomResponseOutputItemAddedEvent and CustomResponseOutputItemDoneEvent lacked a
    created_at field, causing the frontend to synthesize timestamps using integer-second
    precision with a forced +1s minimum gap between events. This made instant workflows
    appear to take 3+ seconds in the DevUI timeline.
    
    Fix:
    - Add optional created_at: float | None field to both custom event models
    - Populate created_at=float(time.time()) in the mapper for executor_invoked,
      executor_completed, and executor_failed events
    
    Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
    
    * fix(devui): use event created_at for accurate workflow timeline timings
    
    workflow-view.tsx synthesized _uiTimestamp using Math.max(baseTimestamp,
    lastTimestamp + 1) with integer-second precision, forcing a minimum 1-second
    gap between every sequential event. This made instant workflows appear to take
    several seconds in the DevUI timeline.
    
    The fix prefers event.created_at (a float Unix timestamp populated by the
    backend mapper for all executor events) and only falls back to the synthetic
    timestamp when created_at is absent. This matches the pattern already used in
    devuiStore.ts:addDebugEvent.
    
    Added a regression test in test_mapper.py verifying that the mapper attaches
    created_at to all executor lifecycle events (invoked, completed, failed).
    
    Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
    
    * fix(devui): address review feedback for issue #5545
    
    - Read data.timestamp (ISO string) and response.created_at in addition
      to top-level created_at when deriving _uiTimestamp, so
      response.workflow_event.completed events get a real server timestamp
      instead of a synthesized one
    - Change uniqueTimestamp tiebreaker: when a real server timestamp is
      available use Math.max(eventTimestamp, lastTimestamp) rather than
      lastTimestamp + 1, eliminating artificial 1-second gaps while still
      preserving monotonic ordering
    - Apply the same fix in the HIL streaming path (second setOpenAIEvents
      call in workflow-view.tsx)
    - Add assert event.created_at > 0 to regression test to guard against
      zero or negative timestamps
    - Add test_custom_output_item_event_models_have_created_at_field model-
      level test so removing the field produces a clear named failure rather
      than a downstream ValidationError

    * fix(#5545): guard NaN timestamps, fix fallback ID uniqueness, add regression tests
    
    - workflow-view.tsx (×2): Wrap data.timestamp ISO→number conversion in a
      Number.isFinite() guard.  Python's datetime.now().isoformat() emits
      microseconds without a trailing 'Z' (e.g. '2024-01-15T12:34:56.123456'),
      which some JS engines cannot parse, returning NaN.  NaN !== undefined is
      true so the eventTimestamp !== undefined guard did not catch it, poisoning
      _uiTimestamp and resetting the monotonic ordering seed (NaN || 0 → 0).
    
    - execution-timeline.tsx: Replace uiTimestamp in the fallback syntheticItemId
      with the per-executor runNumber counter.  Two runs of the same executor
      within the same second previously received identical _uiTimestamp values
      and therefore identical syntheticItemIds, causing their output buckets,
      state, and run entries to collide (execution-timeline.tsx:360–408).
    
    - Add missing test_workflow_timings_bug.py source file (only a stale .pyc
      existed).  Three regression tests:
        · test_custom_event_models_lack_created_at_field – model field guard
        · test_workflow_executor_events_lack_created_at – mapper populates created_at
        · test_rapid_workflow_events_have_no_top_level_timestamps – confirms
          data.timestamp format that requires the frontend NaN guard

  • fix(openai): drop completed continuation_token from shared options in tool loop (#5462)
    Fixes #5394.
    
    When `background=True` is combined with local function tools,
    `FunctionInvocationLayer` calls `_inner_get_response(options=mutable_options)`
    repeatedly with the same dict reference across loop iterations. Once the
    first poll retrieves a completed background response, `continuation_token`
    stays in `mutable_options`, so every subsequent iteration takes the
    `continuation_token is not None` branch and `GET`s the same completed
    response instead of `POST`ing the tool results. The loop exits after
    `max_iterations` with empty text and the model never sees any tool output.
    
    After the retrieve, if the returned `ChatResponse.continuation_token` is
    `None` (the background response is no longer in progress), pop
    `continuation_token` and `background` from the shared options dict in
    place. The next loop iteration then falls through to the normal
    `responses.create`/`parse` path and posts tool results.
    
    The diagnosis and a verified runtime monkeypatch are in the issue; this
    is the same fix moved in-tree.

  • Python: Support GPT-5 verbosity option and restore Foundry agent_reference (#5619)
    * Python: Support GPT-5 verbosity option and restore Foundry agent_reference
    
    Adds verbosity as a typed Literal["low","medium","high"] field on
    OpenAIChatOptions (Responses API) and OpenAIChatCompletionOptions (Chat
    Completions API), set in the same way as the existing reasoning options.
    For the Responses API, top-level verbosity is translated to the nested
    text.verbosity shape the OpenAI service expects. The same field flows
    through to FoundryChatClient via the existing FoundryChatOptions alias.
    
    Also fixes #5582: PR #5447 removed the agent_reference injection from
    RawFoundryAgentChatClient._prepare_options, so first-turn calls against
    a Foundry Prompt Agent went out without model and without agent_reference
    and were rejected by the Responses API with "Missing required parameter:
    'model'". Restores the injection on the non-preview path
    (allow_preview=False) and adds a guard test that asserts the preview
    path does not inject agent_reference, since the preview SDK injects it
    via project_client.get_openai_client(agent_name=...).

      Prompt Agents and HostedAgents on the non-preview path.
    - Add a Responses API test that locks in the documented precedence rule:
      when both top-level verbosity and text["verbosity"] are supplied, the
      top-level value wins.
    
    * Python: Drop redundant Foundry verbosity sample and list OpenAI sample in README
    
    - Remove samples/02-agents/providers/foundry/foundry_chat_client_verbosity.py

      OpenAI and Foundry clients (FoundryChatOptions is an alias of
      OpenAIChatOptions), so a single sample on the OpenAI side is sufficient.

    - namespace MemoryFileStore on-disk layout by source_id to avoid cross-provider collisions
    - before_run computes index_entries once and only rewrites MEMORY.md when content changes
    - asyncio locks around topic/state read-modify-write to avoid concurrent-write races

    * Address PR feedback: harden memory store IO + consolidation behavior
    
    - Atomic writes via os.replace + temp sibling for topic, state, and index files so
      crashes/disk-full failures cannot leave a truncated half-written file.
    - Stop creating directories on read paths: list_topics/read_state/search_transcripts
      and get_messages return empty when nothing has been written. mkdir is deferred to
      the actual save path (write_topic/write_state/save_messages).
    - Escape lines that look like markdown headings on render and unescape them on parse,
      so a memory or summary containing '## Summary'/'## Memories' cannot tamper with the
      topic file structure.
    - Narrow extraction/consolidation chat-client failure handling to ChatClientException,
      asyncio.TimeoutError, and OSError. Programmer errors (AttributeError, TypeError, ...)
      now propagate so misconfigured clients fail loudly.
    - Log a payload-prefix preview for every silent shape branch in _extract_memories and
      _consolidate_topic so unparsable extractor output is debuggable instead of invisible.
    - Restructure _run_consolidation: read maintenance state and topic snapshot under the
      state lock, run the LLM consolidation loop without holding the state lock, and only
      advance last_consolidated_at/sessions_since_consolidation if at least one topic
      succeeded. Transient consolidation failures now leave the maintenance window in
      place so the next after_run retries instead of silently sliding forward.
    - Add regression tests for: markdown-marker round-trip, atomic-write recovery on
      os.replace failure, no-mkdir on pure read paths, transient consolidation failure
      preserves state, and propagation of programmer errors.
