AutoGen Core helps you build applications with multiple Agents that can work together. Think of it like creating a team of specialized workers (Agents) who can communicate and use tools to solve problems. The AgentRuntime acts as the manager, handling messages and agent lifecycles. Agents communicate using a Messaging System (Topics and Subscriptions), can use Tools for specific tasks, interact with language models via a ChatCompletionClient while managing conversation history with ChatCompletionContext, and remember information using Memory. Components provide a standard way to define and configure these building blocks.
