MAF v1 — Group Chat Orchestration (Python + .NET)
Use a centralized manager to pick speakers each round, compare round-robin and agent-driven strategies, and cap runaway loops.
MAF v1 — Magentic Orchestration (Python + .NET)
Use Magentic orchestration for autonomous planning: a manager keeps facts, delegates to workers, reassesses, and replans when stuck.
MAF v1 — Agents in Workflows (Python + .NET)
Wrap a ChatClientAgent as a workflow executor, chain two translators, and hide adapter plumbing behind AgentWorkflowBuilder.
MAF v1 — Sequential Orchestration (Python + .NET)
Use SequentialBuilder or BuildSequential to pass one conversation through Writer, Reviewer, and Finalizer agents without hand-built adapters.
MAF v1 — Concurrent Orchestration (Python + .NET)
Fan one input out to an expert panel, aggregate the responses, and keep wall-clock time bounded by the slowest branch cleanly.
MAF v1 — MCP Tools (Python + .NET)
Stand up a Python MCP server and consume it from Python and .NET MAF agents, including discovery and AITool wiring from one server.
MAF v1 — Workflow Executors and Edges (Python + .NET)
Model deterministic workflows with executors as nodes, edges as routes, and a Pregel-style scheduler in Python and .NET.
MAF v1 — Workflow Events and Builder (Python + .NET)
Two kinds of workflow events — lifecycle and custom. Subscribe to the stream in Python and .NET, filter by type, and wire a live progress indicator.
MAF v1 — Context Providers (Python + .NET)
Add per-request context with focused providers, compose them before each LLM call, and plug in TextSearchProvider for simple RAG.
MAF v1 — Middleware and the Agent Pipeline (Python + .NET)
Use middleware to wrap agent runs, intercept tool calls, and redact PII before the LLM sees it in both Python and .NET safely.
MAF v1 — Observability with OpenTelemetry (Python + .NET)
Wire OpenTelemetry spans for agent runs with GenAI attributes, using console export for dev and OTLP for production tracing.
AI Agents: Concepts and Your First Implementation
What AI agents actually are, how they differ from chatbots, and a hands-on walkthrough to build your first agent with Microsoft Agent Framework.
