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.

- 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.

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.
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
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: clarify MCP trace-context propagation scope for hosted/toolbox tools (#5547)
Automatic W3C trace-context injection via params._meta applies only to
MCP sessions opened by the agent process (MCPStreamableHTTPTool,
MCPStdioTool, MCPWebsocketTool). Hosted MCP tools
(FoundryChatClient.get_mcp_tool) and toolbox-fetched tools
(FoundryChatClient.get_toolbox) execute inside the Foundry agent service
runtime; the framework never issues the tools/call for those and
therefore cannot inject traceparent/tracestate. The previous wording
("for all transports") implied coverage that does not exist.
The updated section:
- removes the inaccurate "for all transports" claim
- adds a Scope paragraph naming the three client-opened transports that
are covered
- explicitly states that propagation across the agent-to-toolbox-to-MCP
boundary is the responsibility of the Foundry service runtime
- documents the workaround (use MCPStreamableHTTPTool directly) for
users who need end-to-end distributed tracing today

* docs: broaden MCP _meta scope note to cover all provider-managed transports (#5547)
- List OpenAIChatClient.get_mcp_tool() and AnthropicClient.get_mcp_tool()
alongside FoundryChatClient.get_mcp_tool() as hosted/provider-managed
exceptions; restricting the carve-out to Foundry was misleading for
readers using other providers
- Fix get_toolbox() wording: use 'await client.get_toolbox(...)' and note
that toolbox.tools is passed into Agent(tools=...) so it reads as an
async instance method call, not a static/class method call
- Add parenthetical '(or any other client-opened MCPTool subclass)' to
future-proof the list of covered transports

* docs: add GeminiChatClient to MCP scope note and add learn-site observability doc (#5547)
- Add GeminiChatClient.get_mcp_tool(...) to the hosted/provider-managed
list in the MCP trace propagation scope note; Gemini's get_mcp_tool()
returns a types.Tool with an McpServer entry executed by the Gemini
service runtime, so it belongs alongside FoundryChatClient,
OpenAIChatClient, and AnthropicClient in that list.
- Create docs/features/observability/README.md as the learn-site
documentation surface for observability, covering telemetry setup and
MCP trace propagation with the same scope note (including
GeminiChatClient) so that both doc surfaces are consistent.

* Add azure-monitor-opentelemetry to dev deps
Fixes Samples & Markdown CI failure. The PR's new transitive dep on
azure-monitor-opentelemetry-exporter (via azure-ai-agentserver-core) makes
pyright resolve the azure.monitor.opentelemetry namespace, flipping the
check_md_code_blocks diagnostic for `configure_azure_monitor` from
reportMissingImports (filtered) to reportAttributeAccessIssue (not filtered).
Installing the umbrella azure-monitor-opentelemetry package in dev makes
pyright resolve the symbol correctly, matching the install guidance the
observability README already gives users.

* [BREAKING] Refactor middleware layering and raw clients
Reorder chat client layers so function invocation wraps chat middleware, and chat middleware stays outside telemetry while still running for each inner model call. Add middleware pipeline caching, refresh docs and samples, and split Anthropic into raw and public clients to match the standard layering model.

* Fix categorize_middleware to unpack tuple/Sequence and use relative MRO assertions
- Broaden isinstance check in categorize_middleware from list to Sequence
so tuples and other Sequence types are properly unpacked instead of

- Replace fragile hardcoded MRO index assertions in anthropic test with
relative ordering via mro.index().
- Add regression tests for categorize_middleware with tuple, list, and
None inputs.

and merge it into client_kwargs before categorization, fixing the
inconsistency where only OpenAIChatClient supported this parameter

OpenTelemetry is a hard dependency of agent-framework-core (per
pyproject.toml), so the try/except ImportError guard was dead code.
Move the import to the top of the file to fail fast on missing
dependencies instead of silently hiding installation issues.

* PR2: Wire context provider pipeline and update all internal consumers
- Replace AgentThread with AgentSession across all packages
- Replace ContextProvider with BaseContextProvider across all packages
- Replace context_provider param with context_providers (Sequence)
- Replace thread= with session= in run() signatures
- Replace get_new_thread() with create_session()
- Add get_session(service_session_id) to agent interface
- DurableAgentThread -> DurableAgentSession
- Remove _notify_thread_of_new_messages from WorkflowAgent
- Wire before_run/after_run context provider pipeline in RawAgent
- Auto-inject InMemoryHistoryProvider when no providers configured
* fix: update all tests for context provider pipeline, fix lazy-loaders, remove old test files
* refactor: update all sample files for context provider pipeline (AgentThread→AgentSession, ContextProvider→BaseContextProvider)
* fix: update remaining ag-ui references (client docstring, getting_started sample)
* fix: make get_session service_session_id keyword-only to avoid confusion with session_id
* refactor: rename _RunContext.thread_messages to session_messages
* refactor: remove _threads.py, _memory.py, and old provider files; migrate devui to use plain message lists
* rename: remove _new_ prefix from test files
* refactor: rewrite SlidingWindowChatMessageStore as SlidingWindowHistoryProvider(InMemoryHistoryProvider)
* fix: read full history from session state directly instead of reaching into provider internals
* fix: update stale .pyi stubs, sample imports, and README references for new provider types
* fix: remove stale message_store, _notify_thread_of_new_messages, and session_id.key references in samples
* refactor: merge context_providers and sessions sample folders into sessions, remove aggregate_context_provider
* refactor: UserInfoMemory stores state in session.state instead of instance attributes
* feat: add Pydantic BaseModel support to session state serialization
Pydantic models stored in session.state are now automatically serialized
via model_dump() and restored via model_validate() during to_dict()/from_dict()
round-trips. Models are auto-registered on first serialization; use
register_state_type() for cold-start deserialization.
Also export register_state_type as a public API.
* fix mem0
* Update sample README links and descriptions for session terminology
- Replace 'thread' with 'session' in sample descriptions across all READMEs
- Update file links for renamed samples (mem0_sessions, redis_sessions, etc.)
- Fix Threads section → Sessions section in main samples/README.md
- Update tools, middleware, workflows, durabletask, azure_functions READMEs
- Update architecture diagrams in concepts/tools/README.md
- Update migration guides (autogen, semantic-kernel)
* Fix broken Redis README link to renamed sample
* Fix Mem0 OSS client search: pass scoping params as direct kwargs
AsyncMemory (OSS) expects user_id/agent_id/run_id as direct kwargs,
while AsyncMemoryClient (Platform) expects them in a filters dict.
Adds tests for both client types.
Port of fix from #3844 to new Mem0ContextProvider.
* Fix rebase issues: restore missing _conversation_state.py and checkpoint decode logic
- Add back _conversation_state.py (encode/decode_chat_messages) lost in rebase
- Fix on_checkpoint_restore to decode cache/conversation with decode_chat_messages
- Fix on_checkpoint_restore to use decode_checkpoint_value for pending requests
- Add tests/workflow/__init__.py for relative import support
- Fix test_agent_executor checkpoint selection (checkpoints[1] not superstep)
* Add STORES_BY_DEFAULT ClassVar to skip redundant InMemoryHistoryProvider injection
Chat clients that store history server-side by default (OpenAI Responses API,
Azure AI Agent) now declare STORES_BY_DEFAULT = True. The agent checks this
during auto-injection and skips InMemoryHistoryProvider unless the user
explicitly sets store=False.
* Fix broken markdown links in azure_ai and redis READMEs
* Fix getting-started samples to use session API instead of removed thread/ContextProvider API
* updates to workflow as agent
* fix group chat import
* Rename Thread→Session throughout, fix service_session_id propagation, remove stale AGUIThread
- Fix: Propagate conversation_id from ChatResponse back to session.service_session_id
in both streaming and non-streaming paths in _agents.py
- Rename AgentThreadException → AgentSessionException
- Remove stale AGUIThread from ag_ui lazy-loader
- Rename use_service_thread → use_service_session in ag-ui package
- Rename test functions from *_thread_* to *_session_*
- Rename sample files from *_thread* to *_session*
- Update docstrings and comments: thread → session
- Update _mcp.py kwargs filter: add 'session' alongside 'thread'
- Fix ContinuationToken docstring example: thread=thread → session=session
- Fix _clients.py docstring: 'Agent threads' → 'Agent sessions'
* Fix broken markdown links after thread→session file renames
* fix azure ai test
* restructure: Python samples into progressive 01-05 layout
- 01-get-started/: 6 numbered steps (hello agent → hosting)
- 02-agents/: all agent concept samples (tools, middleware, providers, etc.)
- 03-workflows/: ALL existing workflow samples preserved as-is
- 04-hosting/: azure-functions, durabletask, a2a
- 05-end-to-end/: demos, evaluation, hosted agents
- Old files moved to _to_delete/ for review
- Added AGENTS.md with structure documentation
- autogen-migration/ and semantic-kernel-migration/ preserved at root
* fix: switch to AzureOpenAI Foundry, fix CI failures
- Switch all 01-get-started samples to AzureOpenAIResponsesClient with
Azure AI Foundry project endpoint (AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT +
AZURE_OPENAI_RESPONSES_DEPLOYMENT_NAME + AzureCliCredential)
- Add _to_delete/ and 05-end-to-end/ to pyrightconfig.samples.json excludes
- Fix test paths in packages/ that referenced old getting_started/ dirs:
durabletask conftest + streaming test, azurefunctions conftest,
devui conftest + capture_messages + openai_sdk_integration
- Fix workflow_as_agent_human_in_the_loop.py import (sibling import)
- Update hosting READMEs and tool comment paths
- Replace root README.md with new structure overview
- Update AGENTS.md to document Azure OpenAI Foundry as default provider
* cleanup: remove _to_delete folder, copy resource files to active dirs
All files in _to_delete/ were either:
- Exact duplicates of files in the new structure (240 files)
- Same file with only comment path updates (100 files)
- One import-fix diff (workflow_as_agent_human_in_the_loop.py)
- One superseded minimal_sample.py
Resource files (sample.pdf, countries.json, employees.pdf, weather.json)
copied to 02-agents/sample_assets/ and 02-agents/resources/ since active
samples reference them.
* fix: address PR review comments, centralize resources, remove root duplicates
- Fix type annotation in 04_memory.py (string union -> proper types)
- Fix old sample paths in observability files
- Fix grammar/spelling in observability samples
- Move sample_assets/ and resources/ to shared/ folder
- Remove 8 duplicate observability files from 02-agents root
- Update resource path references in multimodal_input and provider samples
* fix: update broken links from old getting_started paths to new structure
- Update relative paths in READMEs: getting_started/ → 01-get-started/,
02-agents/, 03-workflows/, 04-hosting/, 05-end-to-end/
- Fix absolute GitHub URLs in package READMEs
- Fix broken link in ollama package README
* fix: convert absolute GitHub URLs to relative paths for link checker
Absolute URLs to python/samples/ on main branch 404 until PR merges.
Converted to relative paths that linkspector can verify locally.
* fix: update link for handoff sample moved to orchestrations/
* fix: update chatkit-integration README path from demos/ to 05-end-to-end/
* fix: update broken links in orchestrations README to match flat directory structure
