What tools are available in the Azure AI Agents .NET SDK?

It supports a wide range of tools including Code Interpreter, File Search, Bing Grounding, Azure AI Search, OpenAPI, Azure Functions, and MCP (Model Context Protocol).

What is the difference between the Persistent and Projects SDKs?

The Persistent SDK (Azure.AI.Agents.Persistent) is a low-level SDK providing granular control over agents, threads, and runs, whereas the Projects SDK offers a higher-level abstraction for Azure AI project management.

Does this skill support RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?

Absolutely. It includes implementation guides for File Search via Vector Stores and direct integration with Azure AI Search indexes for grounding agent responses.

Can I implement real-time streaming with this skill?

Yes, the skill provides patterns for using CreateRunStreamingAsync and handling various StreamingUpdate types like MessageContentUpdate for real-time text delivery.

How do I handle function calling in .NET using this SDK?

The skill demonstrates how to define FunctionToolDefinitions and manage the RequiresAction run status to execute local code and submit tool outputs back to the agent.

Builds and manages persistent AI agents with threads, streaming, and advanced tool integration using the Azure AI Agents .NET SDK.

This skill provides specialized guidance for implementing the Azure AI Agents Persistent SDK within .NET environments. It enables developers to architect sophisticated, stateful AI agents that utilize persistent conversation threads, execute complex logic via Code Interpreter and Bing Search tools, and deliver real-time feedback through streaming responses. By providing optimized implementation patterns for agent CRUD, vector store management, and function calling, this skill helps developers leverage Azure's low-level agentic capabilities to build production-grade AI assistants.
