Microsoft Agent Framework

Welcome to the Private Preview of Agent Framework!

You're getting early access to Microsoft's comprehensive multi-language framework for building, orchestrating, and deploying AI agents with support for both .NET and Python implementations. This framework provides everything from simple chat agents to complex multi-agent workflows with graph-based orchestration.

📋 Important Setup Information

Package Availability: Public PyPI and NuGet packages are not yet available. You have two options:

Option 1: Run samples directly from this repository (no package installation needed)

  • Clone this repository
  • For .NET: Run samples with dotnet run from any sample directory (e.g., dotnet/samples/GettingStarted/Agents/Agent_Step01_Running)
  • For Python: Run samples from any sample directory (e.g., python/samples/getting_started/minimal_sample.py) after setting up the local dev environment following this guide.

Option 2: Install packages in your own project

Stay Updated: This is an active project - sync your local repository regularly to get the latest updates.

💬 We want your feedback!

Highlights

  • Flexible Agent Framework: build, orchestrate, and deploy AI agents and workflows
  • Multi-Agent Orchestration: group chat, sequential, concurrent, and handoff patterns
  • Graph-based Workflows: connect agents and deterministic functions using data flows with streaming, checkpointing, time-travel, and Human-in-the-loop.
  • Plugin Ecosystem: extend with native functions, OpenAPI, Model Context Protocol (MCP), and more
  • LLM Support: OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry, and more
  • Runtime Support: in-process and distributed agent execution
  • Multimodal: text, vision, and function calling
  • Cross-Platform: .NET and Python implementations

Below are the basics for each language implementation. For more details on python see here and for .NET see here.
