Python Package Status

This file tracks the current lifecycle state of the Python packages in this workspace. Some packages at later stages might have features within them that are not ready yet, these have feature stage decorators on the relevant APIs, and for experimental features warnings are raised. See the Feature-level staged APIs section below for details on which features are in which stage and where to find them.

Status is grouped into these buckets:

  • alpha - initial release and early development packages that are not yet ready for general use
  • beta - prerelease packages that are not currently release candidates
  • rc - release candidate packages, these are close to ready for release but may still have some breaking changes before the final release
  • released - stable packages without a prerelease suffix, these are stable packages that should not have breaking changes between versions
  • deprecated - removed or deprecated packages that should not be used for new work

Lifecycle state and membership in the root agent-framework meta-package are independent. The Meta package column records whether pip install agent-framework installs the workspace package:

  • yes - included directly or through agent-framework-core[all]; environment markers may still limit supported Python versions or platforms
  • no - installed separately when needed
  • n/a - the root meta-package itself

Feature-level staged APIs

The following feature IDs have explicit feature-stage decorators on public APIs in the packages listed below.

Experimental features

AGENT_HOOKS

  • agent-framework-core: create_agent_hooks_middleware and create_agent_hooks_middleware_from_emitter from agent_framework/_agent_hooks.py, the AGENT-HOOKS-0.1 enforcement middleware bundle, and the MiddlewareBundle container from agent_framework/_middleware.py that both factories produce (MiddlewareBundle itself needs no optional dependency). Requires installing the agent-hooks-sdk package separately. Known limitation: service-side (hosted) tool execution never passes through the framework's function-invocation seam, so the pre_tool_call/post_tool_call points cannot intercept it; hosted tool calls and outputs are surfaced in the post_model_call content projection instead.

DECLARATIVE_AGENTS

  • agent-framework-declarative: declarative agent loading APIs from agent_framework_declarative, including AgentFactory, DeclarativeLoaderError, ProviderLookupError, and ProviderTypeMapping from agent_framework_declarative/_loader.py

EVALS

  • agent-framework-core: exported evaluation APIs from agent_framework, including LocalEvaluator, evaluate_agent, evaluate_workflow, and the related evaluation types and helper checks defined in agent_framework/_evaluation.py
  • agent-framework-foundry: FoundryEvals, evaluate_traces, and evaluate_foundry_target

FILE_HISTORY

  • agent-framework-core: FileHistoryProvider from agent_framework/_sessions.py

FIDES

  • agent-framework-core: security labeling, content indirection, policy enforcement, and secure MCP APIs from agent_framework/security.py, including IntegrityLabel, ConfidentialityLabel, ContentLabel, ContentVariableStore, SecureAgentConfig, and SecureMCPToolProxy

FOUNDRY_TOOLS

  • agent-framework-foundry: released-service tool helpers on FoundryChatClient, currently get_bing_grounding_tool and get_azure_ai_search_tool

FOUNDRY_PREVIEW_TOOLS

  • agent-framework-foundry: preview-service tool helpers on FoundryChatClient, including Bing Custom Search, SharePoint, Fabric, Memory Search, Computer Use, Browser Automation, and A2A

FUNCTIONAL_WORKFLOWS

  • agent-framework-core: functional workflow APIs from agent_framework/_workflows/_functional.py, including RunContext, step, FunctionalWorkflowDefinition, FunctionalWorkflow, workflow, and FunctionalWorkflowAgent

HARNESS

  • agent-framework-core: experimental harness APIs for background agents, file access, looping, memory, and file-backed todo storage under agent_framework/_harness/

MCP_SKILLS

  • agent-framework-core: MCPSkillResource, MCPSkill, and MCPSkillsSource from agent_framework/_skills.py

PROGRESSIVE_TOOLS

  • agent-framework-core: FunctionInvocationContext.add_tools and FunctionInvocationContext.remove_tools from agent_framework/_middleware.py

SESSION_STORE

  • agent-framework-core: SessionStore and FileSessionStore from agent_framework/_sessions.py
  • agent-framework-foundry-hosting: FoundryAgentSessionStore from agent_framework_foundry_hosting/_state_store.py

TO_PROMPT_AGENT

  • agent-framework-foundry: to_prompt_agent from agent_framework_foundry/_to_prompt_agent.py
