How Microsoft Agent Framework + AG-UI Enable Agentic UX & Generative UI
Blog post from CopilotKit
Microsoft's Agent Framework (MAF) and AG-UI are open-source tools designed to create interactive, multi-step workflows and user interfaces for agents, leveraging .NET or Python. MAF provides the core elements for building agents with reasoning, tools, state management, and workflows, while AG-UI standardizes the communication between agents and user interfaces, making them compatible with various frontends like Microsoft's Blazor and CopilotKit. This combination transforms backend processes into stateful, user-facing agents by enabling seamless integration and interaction without the need for custom protocols or message schemas. The system supports transparency and usability by allowing users to see intermediate states, tool usage, and multi-agent interactions. Together, they offer developers a structured, maintainable path to build applications where agents can collaborate with users in real time, enhancing interpretability and trust without requiring additional engineering efforts.
