Event-driven conversation between agents; asynchronous messages and group chats. Architecture: Event-driven message passing; very flexible for debates and negotiations. Best suited: Multi-agent debates, negotiations, and code reviews via conversation. Watch out: Chat histories drive high token consumption; no built-in persistence. Microsoft folded AutoGen in…
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Technical building block: can be automated, integrated, or operated.
Concrete cog in the system that works inside larger relationships.
AutoGen and AG2 are frameworks for coordinating multiple AI agents through messages, roles, and tools.
Microsoft Research released AutoGen in 2023 as a research framework for conversations between agents. Open development led to AG2 in 2024 as an independent, community-driven branch.
Several specialized roles sit at a digital table: one plans, one uses a tool, and one checks the result. The framework manages messages and lifecycle; quality comes from clear tasks, checkpoints, and limits.
A role processes context and performs tasks or uses tools.
Agents coordinate through structured communication.
Approvals and stop rules constrain autonomous flows.
The frameworks suit prototypes and workflows with clearly separable agent roles. More agents add coordination, cost, and failure risks, so tests and human approval remain necessary.
