Microsoft Agent Framework is an open-source Python and .NET framework for building production AI agents that connect to providers like Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, and Foundry. It orchestrates multi-agent systems via graph-based workflows with sequential, concurrent, handoff, and group-collaboration patterns, plus checkpointing, streaming, and OpenTelemetry observability. It unifies and supersedes Semantic Kernel and AutoGen, with migration guides from both.
