* .NET: Add Hosted-MemoryAgent sample with isolation key plumbing (#5692)

Adds HostedSessionContext + HostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider in Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry.Hosting so AIContextProviders (notably FoundryMemoryProvider) can scope per user via the platform's x-agent-user-isolation-key / x-agent-chat-isolation-key headers.

- New types: HostedSessionContext (sealed), HostedSessionContextExtensions (public Get, internal Set), abstract HostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider (async), internal PlatformHostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider mapping ResponseContext.Isolation.

- AgentFrameworkResponseHandler now resolves the provider, tags fresh sessions, and validates resumed sessions against the live request (strict 403 'Hosted session identity context mismatch' on any mismatch; 500 on null keys).

- New shared sample project Hosted_Shared_Contributor_Setup hosts DevTemporaryTokenCredential and DevTemporaryLocalSessionIsolationKeyProvider plus AddDevTemporaryLocalContributorSetup. All 9 existing responses samples migrated to consume it so local runs keep working under the strict isolation contract.

- New Hosted-MemoryAgent sample: travel assistant wired through FoundryMemoryProvider with stateInitializer reading session.GetHostedContext().UserId. Includes Dockerfile, smoke.ps1, agent.yaml/manifest.

- New IT scenario 'memory' in Foundry.Hosting.IntegrationTests + MemoryHostedAgentFixture + MemoryHostedAgentTests. Verified end to end against the tao Foundry project.

- ADR 0026 captures the design tree.

* Address PR review feedback

- Dockerfile: add header noting it targets NuGet builds; contributors must use Dockerfile.contributor for ProjectReference source builds.

- PlatformHostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider: doc said 'returns context with empty values'; corrected to 'returns null' which the handler treats as 500.

- FakeHostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider: doc clarifies that null configurations are allowed for testing the handler error path.

- HostedSessionContextExtensions.SetHostedContext: enforce write-once with InvalidOperationException; doc + xml exception updated.

- AgentFrameworkResponseHandler: cache PlatformHostedSessionIsolationKeyProvider as static readonly to avoid per-request allocation.

- MemoryHostedAgentTests: tighten waits from 20s to 5s (FoundryMemoryProvider defaults UpdateDelay=0; ingestion ~3s).

- Sample Program.cs imports reordered to satisfy IDE0005.

* Add HostedFoundryMemoryProviderScopes built-in helpers (#5692)

Addresses review feedback from @lokitoth on Hosted-MemoryAgent/Program.cs:54.

- New HostedFoundryMemoryProviderScopes static class with PerUser, PerChat, PerUserAndChat factories returning Func<AgentSession?, FoundryMemoryProvider.State>.

- All helpers throw InvalidOperationException when GetHostedContext() is null, with a message pointing at writing a custom stateInitializer for non-hosted scenarios.

- New HostedFoundryMemoryScope enum and AddHostedFoundryMemoryProvider DI extension (two overloads: explicit AIProjectClient and DI-resolved). Singleton lifetime. Default scope = PerUser.

- Hosted-MemoryAgent sample and the memory IT scenario container both swap their inline lambdas for HostedFoundryMemoryProviderScopes.PerUser().

- 14 new unit tests (241/241 hosting unit tests pass).

* Replace HostedFoundryMemoryScope enum with Func<...> parameter (#5692)

Address PR review feedback from @westey-m: enums are a breaking-change hazard when extended, and the enum was redundant with the existing HostedFoundryMemoryProviderScopes static class.

- Delete HostedFoundryMemoryScope.cs.

- AddHostedFoundryMemoryProvider DI extensions now take Func<AgentSession?, FoundryMemoryProvider.State>? stateInitializer = null. When null, default to HostedFoundryMemoryProviderScopes.PerUser().

- Callers pick a built-in helper (PerUser/PerChat/PerUserAndChat) or pass a custom delegate. New built-ins are a single static method addition with zero impact on existing callers.

- Tests updated; 244/244 hosting unit tests pass.

* Fix isolation context resume for externally-created conversations (#5692)

Branch on the session's existing hosted-context (not on conversation_id presence) so a conversation provisioned externally (e.g. via conversations.CreateProjectConversationAsync) is treated as fresh on first hosted-agent request and stamped, rather than rejected with 403 hosted_session_identity_mismatch. Strict equality is preserved on real resume of an already-stamped session.

Also tighten dotnet/global.json to version 10.0.204 + rollForward latestPatch so local builds match the CI Docker image SDK and avoid 10.0.300 dotnet format stripping required usings.

* Revert global.json SDK pin to upstream (#5692)

The 10.0.204 + latestPatch pin from the previous commit broke the dotnet-format CI job (hostfxr_resolve_sdk2 could not find a compatible SDK in the mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:10.0 image). Restore upstream 10.0.200 + minor; local Release builds with SDK 10.0.300 should set GITHUB_ACTIONS=true to bypass the auto-format-on-build target.

Hosted-McpTools

A hosted agent demonstrating two layers of MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool integration:

  1. Client-side MCP (Microsoft Learn) — The agent connects directly to the Microsoft Learn MCP server via McpClient, discovers tools, and handles tool invocations locally within the agent process.

  2. Server-side MCP (Microsoft Learn) — The agent declares a HostedMcpServerTool which delegates tool discovery and invocation to the LLM provider (Azure OpenAI Responses API). The provider calls the MCP server on behalf of the agent with no local connection needed.

How the two MCP patterns differ

Client-side MCP Server-side MCP
Connection Agent connects to MCP server directly LLM provider connects to MCP server
Tool invocation Handled by the agent process Handled by the Responses API
Auth Agent manages credentials Provider manages credentials
Use case Custom/private MCP servers, fine-grained control Public MCP servers, simpler setup
Example Microsoft Learn (McpClient + HttpClientTransport) Microsoft Learn (HostedMcpServerTool)

Prerequisites

  • .NET 10 SDK
  • An Azure AI Foundry project with a deployed model (e.g., gpt-4o)
  • Azure CLI logged in (az login)

Configuration

Copy the template and fill in your values:

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env:

AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT=https://<your-account>.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/<your-project>
AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=gpt-4o

Running directly (contributors)

cd dotnet/samples/04-hosting/FoundryHostedAgents/responses/Hosted-McpTools
dotnet run

Test it

Using the Azure Developer CLI:

# Uses GitHub MCP (client-side)
azd ai agent invoke --local "Search for the agent-framework repository on GitHub"

# Uses Microsoft Learn MCP (server-side)
azd ai agent invoke --local "How do I create an Azure storage account using az cli?"

Running with Docker

1. Publish for the container runtime

dotnet publish -c Debug -f net10.0 -r linux-musl-x64 --self-contained false -o out

2. Build and run

docker build -f Dockerfile.contributor -t hosted-mcp-tools .

export AZURE_BEARER_TOKEN=$(az account get-access-token --resource https://ai.azure.com --query accessToken -o tsv)

docker run --rm -p 8088:8088 \
  -e AGENT_NAME=mcp-tools \
  -e AZURE_BEARER_TOKEN=$AZURE_BEARER_TOKEN \
  --env-file .env \
  hosted-mcp-tools

NuGet package users

Use the standard Dockerfile instead of Dockerfile.contributor. See the commented section in HostedMcpTools.csproj for the PackageReference alternative.
