Python: Add Cosmos DB NoSQL Checkpoint Storage for Python Workflows (#4916 )

* Add CosmosCheckpointStorage for Python workflow checkpointing

Add native Cosmos DB NoSQL support for workflow checkpoint storage in the
Python agent-framework-azure-cosmos package, achieving parity with the
existing .NET CosmosCheckpointStore.

New files:
- _checkpoint_storage.py: CosmosCheckpointStorage implementing the
  CheckpointStorage protocol with 6 methods (save, load, list_checkpoints,
  delete, get_latest, list_checkpoint_ids)
- test_cosmos_checkpoint_storage.py: Unit and integration tests
- workflow_checkpointing.py: Sample demonstrating Cosmos DB-backed
  workflow checkpoint/resume

Auth support:
- Managed identity / RBAC via Azure credential objects
  (DefaultAzureCredential, ManagedIdentityCredential, etc.)
- Key-based auth via account key string or AZURE_COSMOS_KEY env var
- Pre-created CosmosClient or ContainerProxy

Key design decisions:
- Partition key: /workflow_name for efficient per-workflow queries
- Serialization: Reuses encode/decode_checkpoint_value for full Python
  object fidelity (hybrid JSON + pickle approach)
- Container auto-creation via create_container_if_not_exists

Python: Strip tools from FoundryAgent request when agent_reference is present (#5101 )

_prepare_options() now removes tools, tool_choice, and parallel_tool_calls
from run_options after injecting agent_reference. The Foundry API rejects
requests containing both fields. FunctionTools are still invoked client-side
by the function invocation layer.

Python: Fix response_format crash on background polling with empty text (#5146 )

* Guard against empty text in _parse_structured_response_value (#5145)

When using response_format with background=True (Responses API), polling
an in-progress response produces empty text. _parse_structured_response_value
unconditionally passed this to model_validate_json/json.loads, causing
ValidationError or JSONDecodeError.

Add an early return of None when text is empty, matching the existing
guard for response_format=None. This allows .value to safely return None
for in-progress background responses.

Python: Raise clear handler registration error for unresolved TypeVar annotations (#4944 )

* Raise clear handler registration error for unresolved TypeVar (#4943)

Detect unresolved TypeVar in message parameter annotations during handler
registration in both _validate_handler_signature (Executor) and
_validate_function_signature (FunctionExecutor). Raises a ValueError with
an actionable message recommending @handler(input=..., output=...) or
@executor(input=..., output=...) instead of letting TypeVar leak through
to a confusing TypeCompatibilityError during workflow edge validation.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Address review feedback for #4943: reorder checks and harden function executor

- Move TypeVar check before validate_workflow_context_annotation in
  _executor.py so users see the more actionable error first
- Wrap get_type_hints in try/except in _function_executor.py matching
  the defensive pattern in _executor.py
- Repurpose duplicate test to cover bounded TypeVar rejection
- Add test_function_executor_allows_concrete_types for test symmetry

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Narrow get_type_hints except clause and add missing tests (#4943)

- Narrow `except Exception` to `except (NameError, AttributeError, RecursionError)`
  in both _executor.py and _function_executor.py so unexpected failures in
  get_type_hints are not silently swallowed.
- Add test_handler_unresolvable_annotation_raises to test_function_executor_future.py
  exercising the except branch of get_type_hints in the function executor path.
- Add test_function_executor_rejects_bounded_typevar_in_message_annotation to
  test_function_executor.py for parity with the Executor bounded TypeVar test.

* Python: Fix image content serialization sending null file_id to Foundry API

Omit file_id from input_image dict when not present instead of including
it as null, which Azure AI Foundry's stricter schema validation rejects.

* Python: Fix Foundry API rejecting rich content in function_call_output

Azure AI Foundry does not support list-format output in function_call_output
items. Add SUPPORTS_RICH_FUNCTION_OUTPUT flag (default True) to
RawOpenAIChatClient, set to False in RawFoundryChatClient so Foundry
falls back to string output for tool results with images/files.

Also omit file_id from input_image dicts when not set, since Foundry
rejects explicit nulls.

* Python: Surface rich tool content as user message when Foundry lacks support

When SUPPORTS_RICH_FUNCTION_OUTPUT is False, image/file items from tool
results are injected as a follow-up user message so the model can still
process the visual content via Foundry's supported user message format.

* Xfail Foundry image integration test for the meantime

Python: Fix GitHubCopilotAgent to invoke context provider before_run/after_run hooks (#5013 )

* Fix GitHubCopilotAgent not calling context provider hooks (#3984)

GitHubCopilotAgent accepted context_providers in its constructor but
never called before_run()/after_run() on them in _run_impl() or
_stream_updates(), silently ignoring all context providers.

Add _run_before_providers() helper to create SessionContext and invoke
before_run on each provider. Both _run_impl() and _stream_updates() now
run the full provider lifecycle: before_run before sending the prompt
(with provider instructions prepended) and after_run after receiving the
response. This follows the same pattern used by A2AAgent.

* Python: Fix GitHubCopilotAgent to invoke context provider before_run/after_run hooks

Fixes #3984

* fix(#3984): address review feedback for context provider integration

- Build prompt from session_context.get_messages(include_input=True) so
  provider-injected context_messages are included in both non-streaming
  and streaming paths (review comments #1, #2)
- Preserve timeout in opts (use get instead of pop) so providers can
  observe it via context.options (review comment #3)
- Eliminate streaming double-buffer: move after_run invocation to a
  ResponseStream result_hook (matching Agent class pattern) instead of
  maintaining a separate updates list in the generator (review comment #4)
- Improve _run_before_providers docstring

Add tests for:
- Context messages included in prompt (non-streaming + streaming)
- Error path: after_run NOT called when send_and_wait/streaming raises
- Multiple providers: forward before_run, reverse after_run ordering
- BaseHistoryProvider with load_messages=False is skipped
- Streaming after_run response contains aggregated updates
- Streaming with no updates still sets empty response
- Timeout preserved in session context options for providers

Note: _run_before_providers remains on GitHubCopilotAgent for now. A
follow-up PR should extract it to BaseAgent so subclasses can reuse it
without duplicating the provider iteration logic.

Move _run_before_providers from GitHubCopilotAgent into BaseAgent,

_prepare_session_and_messages now delegates to the shared base method,
eliminating the near-duplicate provider iteration logic that could
drift as the provider contract evolves.

* revert: keep _run_before_providers in GitHubCopilotAgent only

Undo the promotion of _run_before_providers to BaseAgent. The method
stays in GitHubCopilotAgent where it is needed, and _agents.py
retains its original inline provider iteration in RawAgent.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix: replace deprecated BaseContextProvider/BaseHistoryProvider with ContextProvider/HistoryProvider

Update imports and usages in GitHubCopilotAgent and its tests to use
the new non-deprecated class names from the core package.

* fix: address review feedback - reorder providers before session, wrap streaming after_run in try/except, assert after_run on skipped HistoryProvider

- Move _run_before_providers before _get_or_create_session so provider
  contributions can affect session configuration
- Wrap _run_after_providers in try/except in streaming _after_run_hook
  to prevent provider errors from replacing successful responses
- Add after_run assertion to test_history_provider_skip_when_load_messages_false

Python: Fix duplicate system message from instructions (#5049 ) (#5051 )

Add deduplication to `prepend_instructions_to_messages()` to skip
instructions that are already present as leading messages with the
same role and text. This prevents duplicate system messages when
instructions are injected by multiple layers (e.g. Agent + chat client).

Fixes #5049

.NET: Rename Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI to Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry and consolidate FoundryMemory (#5042 )

* Update Foundry Responses as ChatClientAgent

* Migrate obsolete AzureAI integration tests to versioned agent pattern

Replace obsolete CreateAIAgentAsync/GetAIAgentAsync calls with
Agents.CreateAgentVersionAsync() + AsAIAgent(AgentVersion) in all
AzureAI integration tests.

- Rename AIProjectClient* test files to FoundryVersionedAgent*
- Register AIFunction tools in PromptAgentDefinition.Tools for
  server-side visibility via AsOpenAIResponseTool()
- Skip structured output tests (AzureAIProjectChatClient clears
  ResponseFormat for versioned agents)
- Remove all [Obsolete] attributes and #pragma warning disable CS0618

* Merge FoundryMemory package into AzureAI under Memory/ folder

Move all FoundryMemory source, unit tests, and integration tests into
the Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI package. Change namespace from
Microsoft.Agents.AI.FoundryMemory to Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.

- Add [Experimental] to FoundryMemoryProviderOptions and Scope
- Rename internal AIProjectClientExtensions to MemoryStoreExtensions
- Update AzureAI .csproj with Compliance.Abstractions, Redaction
- Remove FoundryMemory from solution and release filter
- Update sample to reference AzureAI instead of FoundryMemory
- Delete old Microsoft.Agents.AI.FoundryMemory project and tests

* Add EnsureMemoryStoreCreatedAsync and memory existence checks to integration tests

- Ensure memory store is created before testing memory operations
- Add AZURE_AI_EMBEDDING_DEPLOYMENT_NAME config setting
- Assert memories exist in store via SearchMemoriesAsync before cleanup
- Verify scope isolation with direct memory store queries

* Fix and rename AzureAI unit tests for RAPI vs Versioned clarity

- Rename AsAIAgentAsync_* to AsAIAgent_* (drop Async from method group)
- Add _Rapi_ prefix to non-versioned (Responses API) tests
- Add _Versioned_ prefix to versioned agent tests where needed
- Fix RAPI tests: assert GetService<AIProjectClient>() is null
- Fix Versioned tests: assert IsType<FoundryAgent> and
  GetService<AIProjectClient>() returns the client instance
- Fix UserAgent header tests: proper HTTP handler routing
- Fix ChatClient_UsesDefaultConversationIdAsync test setup
- All 153 unit tests pass with 0 failures

* Rename Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI to Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry

Rename the project, namespace, folder, and all references from
Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI to Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry.
Also rename Workflows.Declarative.AzureAI to .Foundry.

- Rename src, unit test, integration test, and workflow folders
- Update namespaces in all source and test .cs files
- Update ProjectReferences in ~47 sample and test .csproj files
- Update solution files (.slnx, .slnf)
- Update sample using statements
- Update READMEs, SKILL.md, ADRs in docs/
- Disable package validation baseline for renamed packages
- Fix UTF-8 BOM encoding on all affected .cs files
- AzureAI.Persistent left completely unchanged

* Fix format: remove ImplicitUsings, add explicit usings, fix BOM encoding

- Remove ImplicitUsings=enable from Foundry csproj to resolve IDE0005
  on shared ReplacingRedactor.cs
- Add explicit System usings to all source files that relied on them
- Sort usings alphabetically per editorconfig rules
- Fix UTF-8 BOM on 12 sample Program.cs files
- Rename Azure AI Foundry Agents to Microsoft Foundry Agents in docs

- foundry_chat_client_with_hosted_mcp: move store kwarg into options dict
- Add README.md for context_providers and conversations sample folders

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Python: Fix additional sample issues in context_providers

- mem0_basic: send preferences query before sleep so Mem0 can learn them,
  print result from new session recall
- mem0_sessions: add session for multi-turn conversation in agent-scoped
  example, remove user_id from agent-scoped provider (Mem0 API stores
  memories without user_id when agent_id is provided), use single message
  for storing preferences
- redis_basics: print retrieved context messages instead of raw object
- redis_sessions: add missing load_dotenv() call
- redis_basics/redis_sessions: fix docstrings referencing wrong client type
- azure_redis_conversation: replace duplicate copyright with load_dotenv()
