Pull Request Overview
This PR refactors Azure AI persistent agent functionality by separating it into a dedicated Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistent project. The change creates a clearer separation of concerns between general Azure AI and persistent agent-specific functionality.
- Creates new
Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentproject with extension methods forPersistentAgentsClient - Updates all project references from
Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAItoMicrosoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentacross samples, tests, and workflows - Corrects the namespace in unit tests to match the new project structure

This caused unintuitive behaviour when passing a string as input without providing a runId, resulting in the input being misinterpreted as the runId and the workflow not executing. As well, the name caused confusion about why the Workflow was not running when using the input-less StreamAsync (since the Workflow cannot run without any messages to drive its execution). * Python: fix missing packaging dependency (#1929) * fix missing packaging dependency * add aiohttp to azureai * Bring back files * Address merge conflict * Address merge conflict+ --------- Co-authored-by: westey <164392973+westey-m@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Jeff Handley <jeffhandley@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Javier Calvarro Nelson <jacalvar@microsoft.com> Co-authored-by: Dmytro Struk <13853051+dmytrostruk@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Jacob Alber <jaalber@microsoft.com> Co-authored-by: Eduard van Valkenburg <eavanvalkenburg@users.noreply.github.com>

This pull request updates the codebase to use the new
Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentpackage instead of the previousMicrosoft.Agents.AI.AzureAIpackage. The change is applied consistently across solution, sample projects, and documentation, ensuring all references and dependencies are aligned with the new persistent package.Package and project reference updates:
Replaced all references to
Microsoft.Agents.AI.AzureAIwithMicrosoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentin project files throughout sample projects, includingA2AServer.csproj,AgentsInWorkflows.csproj, and various workflow-related samples. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]Updated the solution file
agent-framework-dotnet.slnxto reference the newMicrosoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentproject and its corresponding unit test project, removing the old AzureAI references. [1] [2]Documentation update:
.github/upgrades/prompts/SemanticKernelToAgentFramework.mdto instruct users to useMicrosoft.Agents.AI.AzureAI.Persistentinstead of the previous package.
