# Agent Framework Orchestrations
Orchestration patterns for Microsoft Agent Framework. This package provides high-level builders for common multi-agent workflow patterns.
## Installation
```bash
pip install agent-framework-orchestrations
```
## Orchestration Patterns
### SequentialBuilder
Chain agents/executors in sequence, passing conversation context along:
```python
from agent_framework_orchestrations import SequentialBuilder
workflow = SequentialBuilder().participants([agent1, agent2, agent3]).build()
```
### ConcurrentBuilder
Fan-out to multiple agents in parallel, then aggregate results:
```python
from agent_framework_orchestrations import ConcurrentBuilder
workflow = ConcurrentBuilder().participants([agent1, agent2, agent3]).build()
```
### HandoffBuilder
Decentralized agent routing where agents decide handoff targets:
```python
from agent_framework_orchestrations import HandoffBuilder
workflow = (
HandoffBuilder()
.participants([triage, billing, support])
.with_start_agent(triage)
.build()
)
```
### GroupChatBuilder
Orchestrator-directed multi-agent conversations:
```python
from agent_framework_orchestrations import GroupChatBuilder
workflow = (
GroupChatBuilder()
.with_orchestrator(selection_func=my_selector)
.participants([agent1, agent2])
.build()
)
```
### MagenticBuilder
Sophisticated multi-agent orchestration using the Magentic One pattern:
```python
from agent_framework_orchestrations import MagenticBuilder
workflow = (
MagenticBuilder()
.participants([researcher, writer, reviewer])
.with_manager(agent=manager_agent)
.build()
)
```
## Usage with agent_framework
You can also import orchestrations through the main agent_framework package:
```python
from agent_framework.orchestrations import SequentialBuilder, ConcurrentBuilder
```
