Microsoft's new Agent Framework unifies AutoGen's simplicity with Semantic Kernel's enterprise features into a production-ready platform for building AI agents and workflows. You get stateful conversational agents, graph-based orchestration with conditional routing, and proper tooling like middleware, telemetry, and human-in-the-loop approvals. It's available in both Python and C#, which matters if you're working in .NET shops. The framework is still in preview (0.1.0) but already has 5.1k stars on GitHub. Use this when you need multi-agent systems with actual production concerns like logging and approval workflows, not just research prototypes. The skill includes integration guidance for deciding when to use Agent Framework versus simpler alternatives.
