Starter projects and reference patterns for building agents with the Microsoft Agent Framework, including RAG, tools, multi-agent orchestration, MCP, and more.
Learn more about the framework: https://learn.microsoft.com/agent-framework/
This repository provides a curated collection of focused starter projects designed to help developers quickly explore common agentic patterns and bootstrap new solutions.
Each sample isolates a specific capability and is intentionally minimal so it can be easily understood, extended, or reused.
The repository is intended for:
- Learning and experimentation
- Workshops and hackathons
- Rapid prototyping
- Internal knowledge sharing
- Clone the repository
- Open the solution
- Configure User Secrets to populate the required
appsettingsvalues for each project - Run any sample project
- Browse:
- /docs → OpenAPI UI allowing you to run and test the endpoints
- /devui → Launches the Microsoft Agent Framework DevUI to test agents or workflows
These starters are designed to be:
- Focused — one concept per sample
- Minimal — low setup and cognitive overhead
- Practical — runnable out of the box
- Consistent — shared structure and conventions
They are not meant to replace official samples, but to provide scenario-driven entry points aligned with real development workflows.
This repository is expected to evolve over time as new patterns emerge.
Additional starters, improvements, and refinements are encouraged.
