Roger Barreto 628bb1af48 .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

Workflow Getting Started Samples

The workflow samples demonstrate the fundamental concepts and functionality of workflows in Agent Framework.

Samples Overview

Foundational Concepts - Start Here

Please begin with the Start Here samples in order. These three samples introduce the core concepts of executors, edges, agents in workflows, streaming, and workflow construction.

The folder name starts with an underscore (_StartHere) to ensure it appears first in the explorer view.

Sample Concepts
Streaming Extends workflows with event streaming
Agents Use agents in workflows
Agentic Workflow Patterns Demonstrates common agentic workflow patterns
Multi-Service Workflows Shows using multiple AI services in the same workflow
Sub-Workflows Demonstrates composing workflows hierarchically by embedding workflows as executors
Mixed Workflow with Agents and Executors Shows how to mix agents and executors with adapter pattern for type conversion and protocol handling
Writer-Critic Workflow Demonstrates iterative refinement with quality gates, max iteration safety, multiple message handlers, and conditional routing for feedback loops

Once completed, please proceed to the other samples listed below.

Agents

Sample Concepts
Foundry Agents in Workflows Demonstrates using Microsoft Foundry agents in a workflow through ChatClientAgent
Custom Agent Executors Shows how to create a custom agent executor for more complex scenarios
Workflow as an Agent Illustrates how to encapsulate a workflow as an agent
Group Chat with Tool Approval Shows multi-agent group chat with tool approval requests and human-in-the-loop interaction

Concurrent Execution

Sample Concepts
Fan-Out and Fan-In Introduces parallel processing with fan-out and fan-in patterns

Loop

Sample Concepts
Looping Shows how to create a loop within a workflow

Workflow Shared States

Sample Concepts
Shared States Demonstrates shared states between executors for data sharing and coordination

Conditional Edges

Sample Concepts
Edge Conditions Introduces conditional edges for dynamic routing based on executor outputs
Switch-Case Routing Extends conditional edges with switch-case routing for multiple paths
Multi-Selection Routing Demonstrates multi-selection routing where one executor can trigger multiple downstream executors
