Microsoft Agent Framework GA Confirmed for Late March 2026: Final Migration Window Open for AutoGen and Semantic Kernel Projects
Microsoft Agent Framework hit RC1 for Python (February 19) with API surface locked and all v1.0 features complete; GA is confirmed for late March. The framework is the production-ready merger of AutoGen and Semantic Kernel, providing unified Python/.NET support for single and multi-agent orchestration with multi-provider model support. Microsoft published migration guides specifically for AutoGen and Semantic Kernel projects — with GA days away, teams that haven't evaluated migration are now in the final window before v1.0 is the canonical Microsoft agent standard.
