Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework Redis

Please install this package via pip:

pip install agent-framework-redis --pre

Components

Memory Context Provider

The RedisProvider enables persistent context & memory capabilities for your agents, allowing them to remember user preferences and conversation context across sessions and threads.

Basic Usage Examples

Review the set of getting started examples for using the Redis context provider.

Redis Chat Message Store

The RedisChatMessageStore provides persistent conversation storage using Redis Lists, enabling chat history to survive application restarts and support distributed applications.

Key Features

  • Persistent Storage: Messages survive application restarts
  • Thread Isolation: Each conversation thread has its own Redis key
  • Message Limits: Configurable automatic trimming of old messages
  • Serialization Support: Full compatibility with Agent Framework thread serialization
  • Production Ready: Connection pooling, error handling, and performance optimized

Basic Usage Examples

See the complete Redis history provider examples including:

  • User session management
  • Conversation persistence across restarts
  • Session serialization and deserialization
  • Automatic message trimming
  • Error handling patterns
