+# Single Agent Sample
+
+This sample demonstrates how to use the Durable Agent Framework (DAFx) to create a simple Azure Functions app that hosts a single AI agent and provides direct HTTP API access for interactive conversations.
+
+## Key Concepts Demonstrated
+
+- Using the Microsoft Agent Framework to define a simple AI agent with a name and instructions.
+- Registering agents with the Function app and running them using HTTP.
+- Conversation management (via session IDs) for isolated interactions.
+
+## Environment Setup
+
+See the [README.md](../README.md) file in the parent directory for more information on how to configure the environment, including how to install and run common sample dependencies.
+
+## Running the Sample
+
+With the environment setup and function app running, you can test the sample by sending an HTTP request to the agent endpoint.
+
+You can use the `demo.http` file to send a message to the agent, or a command line tool like `curl` as shown below:
+
+Bash (Linux/macOS/WSL):
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: text/plain" \
+    -d "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post `
+    -Uri http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run `
+    -ContentType text/plain `
+    -Body "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+You can also send JSON requests:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me a joke about a pirate."}'
+```
+
+To continue a conversation, include the `thread_id` in the query string or JSON body:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run?thread_id=your-thread-id" \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me another one."}'
+```
+
+The response from the agent will be displayed in the terminal where you ran `func start`. The expected `text/plain` output will look something like:
+
+```text
+Why don't pirates ever learn the alphabet? Because they always get stuck at "C"!
+```
+
+The expected `application/json` output will look something like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "status": 200,
+  "thread_id": "ee6e47a0-f24b-40b1-ade8-16fcebb9eb40",

+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    ],
+    "Usage": {
+      "InputTokenCount": 78,
+      "OutputTokenCount": 36,
+      "TotalTokenCount": 114
+    }
+  }
+}

+You can use the `demo.http` file to send a message to the agent, or a command line tool like `curl` as shown below:
+
+Bash (Linux/macOS/WSL):
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: text/plain" \
+    -d "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post `
+    -Uri http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run `
+    -ContentType text/plain `
+    -Body "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+You can also send JSON requests:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me a joke about a pirate."}'
+```
+
+To continue a conversation, include the `thread_id` in the query string or JSON body:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run?thread_id=your-thread-id" \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me another one."}'
+```
+
+The response from the agent will be displayed in the terminal where you ran `func start`. The expected `text/plain` output will look something like:
+
+```text
+Why don't pirates ever learn the alphabet? Because they always get stuck at "C"!
+```
+
+The expected `application/json` output will look something like:

+# Single Agent Sample
+
+This sample demonstrates how to use the Durable Agent Framework (DAFx) to create a simple Azure Functions app that hosts a single AI agent and provides direct HTTP API access for interactive conversations.
+
+## Key Concepts Demonstrated
+
+- Using the Microsoft Agent Framework to define a simple AI agent with a name and instructions.
+- Registering agents with the Function app and running them using HTTP.
+- Conversation management (via session IDs) for isolated interactions.
+
+## Environment Setup
+
+See the [README.md](../README.md) file in the parent directory for more information on how to configure the environment, including how to install and run common sample dependencies.
+
+## Running the Sample
+
+With the environment setup and function app running, you can test the sample by sending an HTTP request to the agent endpoint.
+
+You can use the `demo.http` file to send a message to the agent, or a command line tool like `curl` as shown below:
+
+Bash (Linux/macOS/WSL):
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: text/plain" \
+    -d "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post `
+    -Uri http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run `
+    -ContentType text/plain `
+    -Body "Tell me a joke about a pirate."
+```
+
+You can also send JSON requests:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me a joke about a pirate."}'
+```
+
+To continue a conversation, include the `thread_id` in the query string or JSON body:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "http://localhost:7071/api/agents/Joker/run?thread_id=your-thread-id" \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -H "Accept: application/json" \
+    -d '{"message": "Tell me another one."}'
+```
+
+The response from the agent will be displayed in the terminal where you ran `func start`. The expected `text/plain` output will look something like:
+
+```text
+Why don't pirates ever learn the alphabet? Because they always get stuck at "C"!

Victor DibiaandGitHub	2e1189ca65	Python: Improve DevUI, add Context Inspector view as new tab under traces (#2742 ) * Improve DevUI, add Context Inspector view as new tab under traces * fix mypy errors * fix: Handle stale MCP connections in DevUI executor MCP tools can become stale when HTTP streaming responses end - the underlying stdio streams close but `is_connected` remains True. This causes subsequent requests to fail with `ClosedResourceError`. Add `_ensure_mcp_connections()` to detect and reconnect stale MCP tools before agent execution. This is a workaround for an upstream Agent Framework issue where connection state isn't properly tracked. Fixes MCP tools failing on second HTTP request in DevUI. fixes #1476 #1515 #2865 * fix #1572 report import dependency errors more clearly * Ensure there is streaming toggle where users can select streaming vs non streaming mode in devui . Fixes .NET: [Python] DevUI tool call rendering in non-streaming mode? * remove unused dead code * improve ux - workflows with agents show a chat component in execution timelien, also ensure magentic final output shows correctly * update ui build * update devui to use instrumentation instead of tracing, other instrumentation and type/instance check fixes	2026-01-07 08:26:08 +00:00
claude89757andGitHub	db283cd396	Python: Fix MCP tool result serialization for list[TextContent] (#2523 ) * Fix MCP tool result serialization for list[TextContent] When MCP tools return results containing list[TextContent], they were incorrectly serialized to object repr strings like: '[<agent_framework._types.TextContent object at 0x...>]' This fix properly extracts text content from list items by: 1. Checking if items have a 'text' attribute (TextContent) 2. Using model_dump() for items that support it 3. Falling back to str() for other types 4. Joining single items as plain text, multiple items as JSON array Fixes #2509 * Address PR review feedback for MCP tool result serialization - Extract serialize_content_result() to shared _utils.py - Fix logic: use texts[0] instead of join for single item - Add type annotation: texts: list[str] = [] - Return empty string for empty list instead of '[]' - Move import json to file top level - Add comprehensive unit tests for serialization * Address PR review feedback: fix type checking and double serialization - Add isinstance(item.text, str) check to ensure text attribute is a string - Fix double-serialization issue by keeping model_dump results as dicts until final json.dumps (removes escaped JSON strings in arrays) - Improve docstring with detailed return value documentation - Add test for non-string text attribute handling - Add tests for list type tool results in _events.py path * Simplify PR: minimal changes to fix MCP tool result serialization Addresses reviewer feedback about excessive refactoring: - Reset _events.py to original structure - Only add import and use serialize_content_result in one location - All review comments addressed in serialize_content_result(): - Added isinstance(item.text, str) check - Use model_dump(mode="json") to avoid double-serialization - Improved docstring with explicit return value documentation - Empty list returns "" instead of "[]" * Refactor: Move MCP TextContent serialization to core prepare_function_call_results Per reviewer feedback, moved the TextContent serialization logic from ag-ui's serialize_content_result to the core package's prepare_function_call_results function. Changes: - Added handling for objects with 'text' attribute (like MCP TextContent) in _prepare_function_call_results_as_dumpable - Removed serialize_content_result from ag-ui/_utils.py - Updated _events.py and _message_adapters.py to use prepare_function_call_results from core package - Updated tests to match the core function's behavior * Fix failing tests for prepare_function_call_results behavior - test_tool_result_with_none: Update expected value to 'null' (JSON serialization of None) - test_tool_result_with_model_dump_objects: Use Pydantic BaseModel instead of plain class * Fix B903 linter error: Convert MockTextContent to dataclass The ruff linter was reporting B903 (class could be dataclass or namedtuple) for the MockTextContent test helper classes. This commit converts them to dataclasses to satisfy the linter check.	2026-01-07 00:47:26 +00:00
