Evan Mattson acec9caa2f Python: Bump Python package versions for a release. (#5432)
* Bump Python version for a release.

* Revert lockstep bumps on unchanged connectors

Per PR review: only connectors that changed (or whose published metadata
changed) should get new versions. Keeps released tier at 1.1.1, a2a/ag-ui
at 1.0.0b260422, foundry-hosting at 1.0.0a260422; reverts the 19 unchanged
betas and 2 unchanged alphas to 1.0.0b260421/1.0.0a260421. Reverts all 26
non-core agent-framework-core floors to >=1.1.0,<2 since no connector
actually depends on a 1.1.1 API or bug fix.

* Restore lockstep prerelease bumps and raise core floors to >=1.1.1

Reverses the lean-revert: all beta packages stamped 1.0.0b260423 and alpha
packages stamped 1.0.0a260423 (Asia date, matching release cut time). All
26 non-core packages raise agent-framework-core lower bound from >=1.1.0,<2
to >=1.1.1,<2 to signal the validated cohort for this release. CHANGELOG
date updated to 2026-04-23.

Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework Gemini

Install the provider package:

pip install agent-framework-gemini --pre

Gemini Integration

The Gemini integration enables Microsoft Agent Framework applications to call Google Gemini models with familiar chat abstractions, including streaming, tool/function calling, and structured output.

Authentication

The connector supports both google-genai authentication modes.

Gemini Developer API

Obtain an API key from Google AI Studio and set either the package-prefixed or SDK-standard environment variable:

export GEMINI_API_KEY="your-api-key"
# or: export GOOGLE_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export GEMINI_MODEL="gemini-2.5-flash-lite"
# or: export GOOGLE_MODEL="gemini-2.5-flash-lite"

Vertex AI

Set the standard Vertex AI environment variables used by google-genai:

export GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI=true
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT="your-project-id"
export GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION="global"
export GOOGLE_MODEL="gemini-2.5-flash-lite"

Examples

See the Google Gemini samples for runnable end-to-end scripts covering:

  • Basic agent with tool calling and streaming
  • Extended thinking with ThinkingConfig
  • Google Search grounding
  • Google Maps grounding
  • Built-in code execution
