* test: Split out Handoff Orchestration tests
* fix: Synthesized Handoff FunctionResult is never sent to agent
When we receive a handoff request from the agent, we need to service it outside of the Agent Loop to terminate the loop. What this means is that we take ownership of terminating the call by feeding the result back into the agent on a subsequent invocation.
When we refactored Handoff to support HITL and make use of AgentSession, we inadvertantly removed this step, causing subsequent invocations to the Handoff agent to fail (first works, but breaks the state).
The fix is to be more precise about the agent's bookmark when concatenating the result of agent invocation to the shared conversation history.
* test: Add unit tests for Handoff FunctionCall/Result matching fix
Some providers, e.g. Gemini, do not use the CallId mechanism to disambiguate simultaneous function calls. This can result in message lists containing multiple turn to fail to filter properly.
The fix is to take advantage of the expectation that Handoff Orchestration is a "single-speaker" flow, which only has a single active AIAgent per "turn" and an agent's turn is not finished until all outstanding function calls are finished.
This allows us to expect that any ambiguous-CallId FunctionCallContent are either in separate turns or will have had a response before the next issued call with the same Id.
* fix: Add session support for Handoff-hosted Agents
In order to better support using `Workflows` hosted as `AIAgents` inside of Handoff workflows, we need to make proper use of AgentSession. This causes potential issues around checkpointing and making sure that we properly compute only the new incoming messages for each agent invocation.
* fix: AgentSession checkpointing using AIAgent's Serialize/Deserialize methods
We cannot rely on implicit serialization through `HandoffHostState` because we are missing type information.
* fix: Thread safety issue in `MultiPartyConversation.AllMessages`
* fix: Enable unwrapping of FunctionResultContent when ExternalRequest was wrapped into FunctionCallContent
* feat: Refactor Handoff Orchestration and add HITL support
* Change HandoffAgentExecutor to use factory-based instantiation
* Extract shared request collection logic in AIAgentUnservicedRequestsCollector
* Refactor HandoffAgentExecutor to use the "ContinueTurn" pattern as in AIAgentHostExecutor
* fix: Remove '$' from exception strings
* feat: Implement return-to-previous routing in handoff workflow
- Also obsoletes HandoffsWorkflowBuilder => HandoffWorkflowBuilder (no "s")
* refactor: Remove instance-shared current agent tracking in handoffs
Because the tracker was instance-shared between the start and end executors, it would be shared between all sessions, resulting in incorrect behaviour.
The corect way to do this is to keep the data in a shared executor scope, which is per-session.
* fix: Fix test logic for Handoff to correctly use checkpointing for multiturn
* fix: HandoffAgentExecutor does not output any reponse when non-streaming
* fix: Ensure Workflow outputs persisted in chat history when hosted AsAgent
* fix: Remove duplicate history entry creation and ad test
* test: Add streaming tests for AsAgent to smoke tests
* feat: Add output configurability to Handoffs
* Fix handoff orchestration not passing user message to handoff target agent (#3161)
Filter out internal handoff function call and tool result messages before
passing conversation history to the target agent's LLM. These messages
confused the model into ignoring the original user question.
* Add handoff tool call filtering behavior and enhance workflow builder
- Introduced HandoffToolCallFilteringBehavior enum to specify filtering behavior for tool call contents in handoff workflows.
- Updated HandoffsWorkflowBuilder to support customizable handoff instructions and tool call filtering behavior.
- Enhanced HandoffAgentExecutor to utilize new filtering options for improved message handling during agent handoffs.
* Enhance handoff message filtering logic and add unit tests for filtering behaviors
* Refactor HandoffMessagesFilter to remove unused handoff function names and enhance filtering logic for non-handoff function calls
* Refactor HandoffMessagesFilter to streamline FilterCandidateState initialization and improve clarity
* Refactor HandoffMessagesFilter to improve filtering logic and add integration tests for handoff workflows

* Rename WorkflowOutputEvent.SourceId to ExecutorId for Python consistency
- Rename SourceId property to ExecutorId in WorkflowOutputEvent
- Add [Obsolete] SourceId property for backward compatibility
- Update all test usages to use ExecutorId
Resolves part of #2938
* Unify AgentResponse events with WorkflowOutputEvent (#2938)
- Change AgentResponseEvent and AgentResponseUpdateEvent to inherit from
WorkflowOutputEvent instead of ExecutorEvent
- Update AIAgentHostExecutor and HandoffAgentExecutor to use YieldOutputAsync()
instead of AddEventAsync() for agent outputs
- Add special-casing in InProcessRunnerContext.YieldOutputAsync() to create
specific event types for AgentResponse and AgentResponseUpdate, bypassing
OutputFilter for backwards compatibility
- Update TestRunContext and TestWorkflowContext with same special-casing
- Add regression tests in AgentEventsTests
* refactor: Seal AgentResponse events
Concurrent run support was recently added to workflows, but Orchestrations did not fully update to support it. A few executors were missing Cross-Run Shareable annotations, and the ConcurrentEnd executor needed to be factory-instantiated.
This also ports the fix for #1613 from #1637, to avoid waiting on that PR.
* Fix handoff function naming
We don't need the agent's name or a guid in the handoff name... we can just use simple numbering. There's a possibility that someone built an agent with a built-in function tool named "handoff_to_x"; if that turns out to be an issue, we could add back some longer bit of randomness.
* Update dotnet/src/Microsoft.Agents.AI.Workflows/Specialized/HandoffAgentExecutor.cs
