Semantic Kernel

Microsoft open-source SDK for integrating AI models into .NET, Python, and Java applications. Officially superseded by Microsoft Agent Framework 1.0 (April 2026), which merges AutoGen and Semantic Kernel. Existing applications stay supported; new builds should target Agent Framework.

Microsoft Agent Framework

Microsoft Agent Framework 1.0 (April 2026) is the official merger of AutoGen and Semantic Kernel into a single production-ready SDK for .NET and Python. Microsoft publishes a migration path from both predecessors; this is the recommended Microsoft path for new agentic applications.
