Microsoft Agent Framework
Microsoft's framework for building and running production-grade agent systems.
Definition
Microsoft Agent Framework is Microsoft's framework for building production agent systems — applications where language models plan, call tools, and carry out multi-step tasks. It provides orchestration, tool integration, and the plumbing needed to run agents reliably at scale. It consolidates patterns Microsoft developed across earlier agent tooling into a single supported foundation for enterprise use.
