Bumps the released 1.6.0 packages agent-framework, agent-framework-core, agent-framework-foundry, and agent-framework-openai to 1.7.0, with root continuing to exactly pin agent-framework-core[all]. Bumps the changed prerelease packages agent-framework-a2a, agent-framework-chatkit, agent-framework-declarative, agent-framework-devui, and agent-framework-foundry-hosting to the 260528 date stamp, raises core floors on the packages included in this release, raises Foundry's OpenAI floor alongside OpenAI, and raises ChatKit's openai-chatkit floor to the minimum version required by the current typed API usage. No beta cohort bump was applied; the absent mistal/mistral package was intentionally not bumped because no such package exists in this branch.
* 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.
* 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.

- Slice 4 should tighten workflow.as_agent() mapping for hidden emissions and streaming-only update payloads; Slice 5 should replace orchestration intermediate_outputs with participant-oriented designation.
* 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.

- Slice 5 should replace orchestration intermediate_outputs with participant-oriented designation.
* Add orchestration participant output designation
Key decisions
- Replace orchestration intermediate_outputs with participant-oriented output_participants and intermediate_participants across Sequential, Concurrent, GroupChat, Magentic, and Handoff builders.
- Keep synthetic final executors terminal by default for Concurrent, GroupChat, and Magentic; keep Sequential's final participant terminal by default; keep Handoff participants terminal by default.
- Centralize participant designation validation for empty explicit designation, duplicates, overlaps, and unknown participants, then map validated participants to workflow output/intermediate executors.

* 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.

Key decisions

* 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.

Blockers/notes:
- all_other intermediate-output selection remains for issue 003.
- Workflow-as-agent/orchestration parity remains for issue 004.
* 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.

Blockers/notes:

- Full documentation updates remain for issue 005.
* Add orchestration output selection parity
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.

- Existing tests that intentionally use final_output_from now emit the new deprecation warning.
* 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.

* Python: bump package versions for 1.2.2 release
PATCH bump (1.2.1 -> 1.2.2) for the released cohort. Five PRs land in this
window:
- agent-framework-openai: fix file_search citations breaking the assistant-
message history roundtrip (#5557) — drives the released-tier PATCH
- agent-framework-orchestrations: [BREAKING] standardize orchestration
terminal outputs as AgentResponse (#5301)
- agent-framework-core, agent-framework-declarative: preserve Workflow.run()
shared state across calls, accept list[Message] in declarative start
executor, and coerce Enum values when serializing PowerFx symbols (#5531)
- agent-framework-foundry-hosting: add hosted Durable Workflow support
(#5531)
- agent-framework-azure-contentunderstanding: new alpha package — Azure AI
Content Understanding context provider (#4829)
- dependencies: workspace package dependency refresh (#5555)
Per lockstep convention, all 21 beta packages stamp 1.0.0b260429 and all 4
alpha packages (now including the new contentunderstanding) stamp
1.0.0a260429. Date stamp reflects 2026-04-29 Pacific. Every non-core package
floor on agent-framework-core is raised to >=1.2.2; the new
contentunderstanding package's stale >=1.0.0 floor is brought into line.
Two follow-on fixes bundled to keep validate-dependency-bounds-test green
at lowest-direct resolution:
- Bump agent-framework-azure-contentunderstanding's azure-ai-content
understanding lower bound from >=1.0.0 to >=1.0.1 (1.0.0 ships without
proper typing — pyright reports 65 unknown-type errors)
- Add pyright ignore comments to core/foundry/__init__.pyi for the new
alpha package's type-stub imports, since alpha packages are not in
core's [all] extra and therefore aren't installed at lowest-direct
* Python: add #5552 to 1.2.2 CHANGELOG
Add the streaming-span observability fix to the Fixed section. PR is on
upstream/main but not yet pulled into origin/main; the code itself will
land via the PR merge.
* Python: address PR #5561 review feedback on dependency bounds
Two packaging fixes flagged in review:
1. agent-framework-azure-contentunderstanding: add agent-framework-foundry
as a runtime dependency. The package's README directs users to
`pip install agent-framework-azure-contentunderstanding --pre` and the
basic example imports `FoundryChatClient` from `agent_framework.foundry`,
so the documented install path was failing with ImportError. Pulling
agent-framework-foundry into deps makes the advertised entry path
self-contained.
2. agent-framework-foundry: bump agent-framework-openai lower bound from
>=1.1.0 to >=1.2.2,<2. Foundry imports private modules from
agent_framework_openai (`_chat_client.py:22`, `_agent.py:34`), so
resolvers were free to pair foundry==1.2.2 with older OpenAI versions
that lack this release's coordinated Responses/history fix. Lockstep the
floor with the released cohort to prevent mismatched installs.
Both changes pass `validate-dependency-bounds-test` lower + upper at
their respective packages.
* Python: bump package versions for 1.2.1 release
PATCH bump (1.2.0 -> 1.2.1) for the released cohort. The release window
covers two PRs, no new public APIs:
- agent-framework-core: prevent inner_exception from being lost in
AgentFrameworkException (#5167)
- samples: add requirements.txt and .env.example to the a2a/ hosting
sample for pip-based setup (#5510)
Per lockstep convention, all 21 beta packages stamp 1.0.0b260428 and all
3 alpha packages stamp 1.0.0a260428, regardless of per-package code
churn. Every non-core package floor on agent-framework-core is raised to
>=1.2.1 to keep cohort signaling consistent. Date stamp reflects the
local (Asia) cut date 2026-04-28.
* Python: silence pyright unknown-type warnings in hosted-env detection
`azure.ai.agentserver.core` is probed at runtime via `importlib.util.find_spec`
and is not a declared dependency. The existing `# pyright: ignore[reportMissingImports]`
suppresses the missing-import warning, but at `lowest-direct` resolution pyright
still reports the imported symbol (`AgentConfig`) and its members (`from_env`,
`is_hosted`) as unknown, breaking `validate-dependency-bounds-test` for
`packages/core`.
Extend the existing ignore to cover `reportUnknownVariableType` on the import
and `reportUnknownMemberType` on the call site so the bounds check returns to
green. Behavior is unchanged.
Latent since #5455 (shipped in 1.2.0).
* Python: raise agent-framework-gemini lower bound to google-genai>=1.65.0
The Gemini chat client references several `google.genai.types` symbols
(`FileSearch`, `ThinkingLevel`, `SearchTypes`, `McpServer`,
`StreamableHttpTransport`, plus call-site keyword args `mcp_servers` and
`search_types`) that are not present at the lower bound of `google-genai>=1.0.0`.
At `lowest-direct` resolution this caused `validate-dependency-bounds-test` to
fail for `packages/gemini` with eleven `reportAttributeAccessIssue` /
`reportUnknownVariableType` errors.
Walking the upstream `google.genai.types` API:
- `GoogleMaps`, `AuthConfig`: present from 1.40.0
- `FileSearch`: introduced in 1.49.0
- `ThinkingLevel`: introduced in 1.55.0
- `SearchTypes`, `McpServer`, `StreamableHttpTransport`: introduced in 1.65.0
Bump the lower bound to 1.65.0 — the minimum version that exposes every symbol
the package actually uses. Keep the `<2.0.0` upper cap unchanged. With this
bump `validate-dependency-bounds-test` passes for both lower and upper
resolution scenarios across all 27 workspace packages.
Latent since #4847 (Gemini package introduction in 1.1.0); aggravated by
subsequent feature additions that pulled in newer `types.*` symbols.
* Python: add dependabot bumps to 1.2.1 CHANGELOG
Catalog the 15 dependabot dependency updates that merged on `upstream/main`
between python-1.2.0 and the 1.2.1 cut window under a new Changed section:
- Workspace dev/runtime deps: `rich`, `prek`, `python-multipart`, `pyasn1`,
`pytest` (ag-ui, devui, lab), `uv` (lab)
- Frontend deps: `vite` (devui, chatkit), `postcss` (devui, chatkit, handoff),
`picomatch` (devui, handoff)
CHANGELOG-only — no source or pyproject.toml changes. PRs themselves merged
upstream independently of this release branch and will be brought in via the
PR merge.
* Bump Python package versions for 1.2.0 release
Released tier bumps 1.1.1 -> 1.2.0 (core, openai, foundry, root) to
reflect additive public APIs landed since 1.1.0: functional workflow API
(#4238) and FunctionTool SKIP_PARSING sentinel (#5424). All beta packages
stamped 1.0.0b260424, alpha packages 1.0.0a260424. All 26 non-core
agent-framework-core floors raised to >=1.2.0,<2. CHANGELOG consolidates
the never-tagged 1.1.1 entries with the post-merge additions into [1.2.0].
* Update CHANGELOG footer links for 1.2.0
Advance [Unreleased] comparison base from python-1.1.0 to python-1.2.0
and add a [1.2.0] reference link comparing python-1.1.0...python-1.2.0

* Fix CHANGELOG: restore [1.1.1] section and add proper [1.2.0]
Previous commit incorrectly renamed the [1.1.1] header to [1.2.0], which
wiped the historical 1.1.1 entries and wrongly attributed them to 1.2.0.
This restores [1.1.1] to its origin/main content and adds a new [1.2.0]
section above containing only the commits in python-1.1.1..HEAD:
- #4238 functional workflow API
- #5142 GitHub Copilot OpenTelemetry
- #2403 A2A bridge support
- #5070 oauth_consent_request events in Foundry clients
- #5447 FoundryAgent hosted agent sessions
- #5459 hosting server dependency upgrade + types
- #5389 AG-UI reasoning/multimodal parsing fix
- #5440 stop [TOOLBOXES] warning spam
- #5455 user agent prefix fix
Also corrects the [1.2.0] compare base to python-1.1.1 (not 1.1.0) and
adds the missing [1.1.1] reference link.
* Bump Python version for a release.
* Revert lockstep bumps on unchanged connectors
Per PR review: only connectors that changed (or whose published metadata
changed) should get new versions. Keeps released tier at 1.1.1, a2a/ag-ui
at 1.0.0b260422, foundry-hosting at 1.0.0a260422; reverts the 19 unchanged
betas and 2 unchanged alphas to 1.0.0b260421/1.0.0a260421. Reverts all 26
non-core agent-framework-core floors to >=1.1.0,<2 since no connector
actually depends on a 1.1.1 API or bug fix.
* Restore lockstep prerelease bumps and raise core floors to >=1.1.1
Reverses the lean-revert: all beta packages stamped 1.0.0b260423 and alpha
packages stamped 1.0.0a260423 (Asia date, matching release cut time). All
26 non-core packages raise agent-framework-core lower bound from >=1.1.0,<2
to >=1.1.1,<2 to signal the validated cohort for this release. CHANGELOG
date updated to 2026-04-23.
* Python: Add allowed_checkpoint_types support to CosmosCheckpointStorage (#5200)
Add allowed_checkpoint_types parameter to CosmosCheckpointStorage for
parity with FileCheckpointStorage. This ensures both providers use the
same restricted pickle deserialization by default.
Changes:
- Accept allowed_checkpoint_types kwarg in __init__, stored as frozenset
- Convert _document_to_checkpoint from @staticmethod to instance method
- Forward allowed_types to decode_checkpoint_value on all load paths
- Update class docstring to describe the new parameter
- Add tests covering built-in safe types, app type opt-in/blocking,
and all load paths (load, list_checkpoints, get_latest)
- Add changelog entry noting the breaking behavior change
BREAKING CHANGE: CosmosCheckpointStorage now uses restricted pickle
deserialization by default. Checkpoints containing application-defined
types will require passing those types via allowed_checkpoint_types.

* Python: Add `allowed_checkpoint_types` support to `CosmosCheckpointStorage` for parity with `FileCheckpointStorage`
Fixes#5200
* Address PR review: add pickle security warning and fix docstring examples
- Reintroduce explicit security warning about pickle deserialization risks
- Convert Example:: block to .. code-block:: python with imports for
consistency with other docstring examples
- Note: PR title should be updated to include [BREAKING] prefix per
changelog convention (comment #3, requires GitHub UI change)
Fixes#5200
