SemanticKernelAgenticChatWorkflowsExtension

Playing around with extending Semantic Kernel and implementing several agentic chat workflow patterns.

I wanted to implement some advanced patterns with Semantic Kernel and got stuck with some things I could not extend. Essentially some classes are sealed and do not have any interfaces to implement.

I have made an issue and a PR to get this in a better, more extensible state.

Semantic Kernel extensions

I have implemented some interfaces so to extend Semantic Kernel and implement several agentic chat workflow patterns.

• IAgentGroupChat & IAgentChat so I can create customized chat workflows.
• Implemented a wrapper for the AgentGroupChat, AgentGroupChatEx so I can inject any kind of IAgentGroupChat and extend it
• Created a AgentGroupChatExt which wraps the AgentGroupChat and implements IAgentGroupChat
• Created the BaseAgentGroupChat which is a base class for other AgentGroupChat implementations
• Implemented the SequAgentChat which is a sequential chat workflow.
• Implemented the TwoAgentChat which is a chat between two agents managed through code (fast).
• Implemented a SequeentialTwoAgentChat which is a sequential chat between several two agent workflows, through code (fast).
• Tried to implement a Middleware pattern as it is in AutoGen.NET but did not fully work. Got stuck with some things I could not extend...

Application

I have created a WPF application based on a sample from Marco Casalaina exhibited in the Cozy AI Kitchen series from John Maeda.

I have extended a bit to plug dynamically different chat workflows and to be able to change the chat workflow on the fly. Also improved the UI to my liking and needs.

Idea

I'd like to thank Chris Rickman, https://github.com/crickman, a Microsoft Principal Software Engineer working on the Semantic Kernel team, for the great discussions and his suggestions on how to extend Semantic Kernel which leaded to this repository.

Current implementations (in UI, and workflow providers)

• Code Crafter workflow (single - agent) - to improve or program some code
• Two Agent Chat Workflow - chat between two agents
• • Sequential Agent Chat Workflow - sequential chat between agents
• Sequential Two Agent Chat Workflow - sequential chat between a set of a number of two agent chats
• TestWorkflow - a test workflow to test the chat workflows with a "normal chat of X Agents"
• TestV2ChatWorkflow - IAgentGroupChat Chat group with termination function - just based on the AgentGroupChatExt wrapper
