Create, update, refactor, explain, or review Microsoft Agent Framework solutions using shared guidance plus language-specific references for .NET and Python.
npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill microsoft-agent-framework --agent copilot
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Microsoft Agent Framework Use this skill when working with applications, agents, workflows, or migrations built on Microsoft Agent Framework. Microsoft Agent Framework is the unified successor to Semantic Kernel and AutoGen, combining their strengths with new capabilities. Because it is still in public preview and changes quickly, always ground implementation advice in the latest official documentation and samples rather than relying on stale knowledge. ## Determine the target language first Choose the language workflow before making recommendations or code changes: 1. Use the **.NET** workflow when the repository contains `.cs`, `.csproj`, `.sln`, `.slnx`, or other .NET project files, or when the user explicitly asks for C# or .NET guidance. Follow [references/dotnet.md](references/dotnet.md). 2. Use the **Python** workflow when the repository contains `.py`, `pyproject.toml`, `requirements.txt`, or the user explicitly asks for Python guidance. Follow [references/python.md](references/python.md). 3. If the repository contains both ecosystems, match the language used by the files being edited or the user's stated target. 4. If the language is ambiguous, inspect the current worksp

What does the microsoft-agent-framework skill do?
Create, update, refactor, explain, or review Microsoft Agent Framework solutions using shared guidance plus language-specific references for .NET and Python.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill microsoft-agent-framework --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
