Copilot 4b3df9ad89 .NET: Add Foundry Evaluation samples (Safety + Quality) (#3697)
* Initial plan

* Add Foundry evaluation samples for Red Teaming and Self-Reflection

Co-authored-by: rogerbarreto <19890735+rogerbarreto@users.noreply.github.com>

* Refactor evaluation samples with real implementations in local functions

Co-authored-by: rogerbarreto <19890735+rogerbarreto@users.noreply.github.com>

* Uncomment function signatures and bodies, keep only invocations commented

* Update Foundry evaluation samples with observability support

* Restructure evaluation samples to follow FoundryAgents naming convention

- Rename Evaluation/Evaluation_StepXX to FoundryAgents_Evaluations_StepXX
- Add evaluation projects to slnx
- Fix var usage, apply dotnet format, use DefaultAzureCredential
- Add try/finally for agent cleanup
- Fix evaluator deployment name separation in Step02
- Update README references

* Rewrite Step01 to use Azure.AI.Projects RedTeam API and address review comments

- Replace safety evaluator sample with actual Red Teaming using AIProjectClient.RedTeams
- Use AttackStrategy (Easy, Moderate, Jailbreak) and RiskCategory from Azure.AI.Projects
- Remove Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Evaluation.Safety dependency from Step01
- Add DefaultAzureCredential warning comments to Step02
- Remove unused bestResponse variable in Step02
- Add session isolation comments in self-reflection loop
- Fix stale directory references in READMEs
- Fix misleading evaluation overview link in main README

* Add note about agent-targeted red teaming limitations in README

The .NET RedTeam API currently only supports model deployment targets
via AzureOpenAIModelConfiguration. Agent-targeted red teaming with
AzureAIAgentTarget is documented in concept docs but not yet available
in the SDK's RedTeam constructor. Results appear in classic portal view.

* Add classic Foundry disclaimer to red teaming sample README

Clarify that this sample uses the classic Azure AI Foundry red teaming
API (/redTeams/runs). The new Foundry portal uses a separate evaluation-
based API not yet available in the .NET SDK. AzureAIAgentTarget exists
in the SDK but is consumed by the Evaluation Taxonomy API, not RedTeam.

* Address PR review comments on Step02 SelfReflection

- Pass full prompt (with context) to evaluator messages instead of just
  the question, so evaluator input matches what the agent received
- Include previous response text in self-reflection refinement prompt
  so the LLM can meaningfully improve its answer across iterations
- Inline CreateKnowledgeAgent helper (single use, single statement)
- Add comment clarifying why RunCombinedQualityAndSafetyEvaluation
  intentionally passes only the question (no context)

Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework for C# Developers

Samples

Quickstart

Basic Agent - .NET

using System;
using Azure.AI.OpenAI;
using Azure.Identity;
using Microsoft.Agents.AI;

var endpoint = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")!;
var deploymentName = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME")!;

var agent = new AzureOpenAIClient(new Uri(endpoint), new AzureCliCredential())
    .GetOpenAIResponseClient(deploymentName)
    .AsAIAgent(name: "HaikuBot", instructions: "You are an upbeat assistant that writes beautifully.");

Console.WriteLine(await agent.RunAsync("Write a haiku about Microsoft Agent Framework."));
