* Refactor project files to use TargetFrameworks instead of TargetFramework for multi-targeting support; add optional port property to DevUIResource class.
* Add unit tests for DevUIAggregatorHostedService; refactor project files for TargetFrameworks support
* Refactor project files to use TargetFrameworks for multi-targeting support in DevUIIntegration samples
* Remove unnecessary using directive for Aspire.Hosting in DevUIAggregatorHostedServiceTests
* merge
* fixes Conversation routing for non-first backends
* add documentation for devui integration sample
* update project references in solution file for improved integration
* fixes package versions post merge
* move Aspire.Hosting.AgentFramework.DevUI to dotnet/src
Move the project from aspire-integration/ to src/ to be consistent
with the location of all other projects in the repo.
* move DevUI sample to samples/05-end-to-end/DevUIAspireIntegration
Move the sample from samples/DevUIIntegration/ to
samples/05-end-to-end/DevUIAspireIntegration/ to match the location
of other end-to-end samples.
* remove unnecessary net472 framework condition from sample csproj files
These projects only target net10.0, so the
Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' != 'net472'" on ItemGroup is unnecessary.
* update sample model name from gpt-4.1 to gpt-5.4
Use a more up-to-date model name in the DevUI integration samples.
* Revert "remove unnecessary net472 framework condition from sample csproj files"
This reverts commit 08cf41253b.
* fix: use TargetFrameworks to override multi-targeting from Directory.Build.props
The parent Directory.Build.props sets TargetFrameworks to net10.0;net472,
which overrides the singular TargetFramework in each csproj. Use the plural
TargetFrameworks property set to net10.0 only to properly override it, and
remove the now-unnecessary net472 condition on ItemGroup.
* fixes aspire config
* fix: update Microsoft.Extensions packages to version 10.0.1
* Address Copilot review feedback on DevUI Aspire integration
- Fix request body dropping in ProxyConversationsAsync: always read the
body when ContentLength > 0 before routing, then pass it through to
all proxy calls (previously null was passed when backend was resolved
from query param or conversation map)
- Fix resource leak: dispose aggregator on startup failure in catch block
- Fix XML docs: accurately describe embedded resource serving behavior
- Remove reflection from DevUIResourceTests (InternalsVisibleTo already set)
- Make sensitive telemetry conditional on Development environment in samples

Agent Framework Samples
The agent framework samples are designed to help you get started with building AI-powered agents from various providers.
The Agent Framework supports building agents using various inference and inference-style services.
All these are supported using the single ChatClientAgent class.
The Agent Framework also supports creating proxy agents, that allow accessing remote agents as if they
were local agents. These are supported using various AIAgent subclasses.
Sample Structure
| Folder | Description |
|---|---|
01-get-started/ |
Progressive tutorial: hello agent → hosting |
02-agents/ |
Deep-dive by concept: tools, middleware, providers, orchestrations |
03-workflows/ |
Workflow patterns: sequential, concurrent, state, declarative |
04-hosting/ |
Deployment: Azure Functions, Durable Tasks, A2A |
05-end-to-end/ |
Full applications, evaluation, demos |
Getting Started
Start with 01-get-started/ and work through the numbered files:
- 01_hello_agent — Create and run your first agent
- 02_add_tools — Add function tools
- 03_multi_turn — Multi-turn conversations with
AgentSession - 04_memory — Agent memory with
AIContextProvider - 05_first_workflow — Build a workflow with executors and edges
- 06_host_your_agent — Host your agent via Azure Functions
Additional Samples
Some additional samples of note include:
- Agents: Basic steps to get started with the agent framework.
These samples demonstrate the fundamental concepts and functionalities of the agent framework when using the
AIAgentand can be used with any underlying service that provides anAIAgentimplementation. - Agent Providers: Shows how to create an AIAgent instance for a selection of providers.
- Agent Telemetry: Demo which showcases the integration of OpenTelemetry with the Microsoft Agent Framework using Azure OpenAI and .NET Aspire Dashboard for telemetry visualization.
- Durable Agents - Azure Functions: Samples for using the Microsoft Agent Framework with Azure Functions via the durable task extension.
- Durable Agents - Console Apps: Samples demonstrating durable agents in console applications.
Migration from Semantic Kernel
If you are migrating from Semantic Kernel to the Microsoft Agent Framework, the following resources provide guidance and side-by-side examples to help you transition your existing agents, tools, and orchestration patterns.
The migration samples map Semantic Kernel primitives (such as ChatCompletionAgent and Team orchestrations) to their Agent Framework equivalents (such as ChatClientAgent and workflow builders).
For an in-depth migration guide, see the official migration documentation.
Prerequisites
For prerequisites see each set of samples for their specific requirements.
