File contents

Microsoft Agent Framework Python

Use the installed AGENTS.md for project structure and package documentation. Use the microsoft-agent-framework and matching Python skills for ordered procedures.

When changing the public root API surface (agent_framework/__init__.py), keep the lazy runtime export registry, explicit runtime __all__, and agent_framework/__init__.pyi synchronized. Runtime deprecation behavior for a public alias should live in the owning module, not as a special case in the root package.

Conventions

Rule	Rationale
Keep runtime exports, `__all__`, and type stubs synchronized.	Import and typing behavior must expose one public contract.
Resolve supported APIs and dependency versions from the owning manifest.	Imported examples can target a different SDK version than another runtime.
Keep deprecation behavior in the module that owns the public alias.	Root-package special cases drift from the implementation lifecycle.

Do / Do Not

Do	Do not
Follow the owning manifest and execute focused import and typing checks.	Assume another Agent Framework runtime uses the same dependency version.
Keep edits inside the imported Python example tree.	Turn passive conventions into an unrequested migration workflow.

Checklist Before Opening a PR

The change matches this instruction's applyTo scope.
Runtime exports, __all__, and type stubs agree.
Tests use dependencies resolved from the owning manifest.
Focused import, type, and package checks pass or blockers are recorded.
No unrelated edits or unresolved placeholders remain.
