Full Changelog: v10.9.0...v10.10.0

Version 10.9.0 is headlined by changes in these areas:

• AI: New experimental routing APIs center on the abstract RoutingChatClient base class, with SemanticRoutingChatClient as a concrete semantic-routing implementation. Separately, the abstract FailoverChatClient specialization and its concrete OrderedFailoverChatClient implementation add failover routing.
• AI Evaluation: The generated report gains redesigned Overview, Cases, History, and Comparison views.
• ASP.NET Core and HTTP diagnostics: The release adds HTTP request latency log enrichment and fixes configuration binding, response-body logging, request-path redaction, and resilience package version handling.
• Source-generated logging and service discovery: Fixes cover classification type qualification, thread-local state cleanup, and DNS query suffix handling.

Experimental API Changes

New Experimental APIs

• New experimental API: HTTP request latency log enrichment (EXTEXP0013) #7602
• New experimental API: Chat client routing and failover (MEAI001) #7662

What's Changed

AI (Microsoft.Extensions.AI, Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Abstractions, and Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI)

• Add extensible chat client routing #7662 by @joshuajyue (co-authored by @Copilot)
• Pass the request's options to the selected client #7685 by @joshuajyue (co-authored by @jozkee @Copilot)
• AI.Abstractions: fix ExcludeFromSchema dropped under concurrent AIFunction creation #7677 by @jozkee (co-authored by @Copilot)
• Cap OpenAI dependency version (b10f9c0) by @jeffhandley (co-authored by @Copilot)

Note: Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI constrains its dependency for OpenAI to 2.12.x, preventing OpenAI updates to 2.13.0+ due to an incompatibility. We expect to release Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI version 10.9.1 during the week of August 17 to address this issue.

Experimental API Changes

Experimental API behavior updates

• Updated serialization behavior for experimental ToolApprovalRequestContent.RequiresConfirmation so it no longer leaks into consumer source-generated AIContent JSON metadata unless approval APIs are intentionally used (#7659).

What's Changed

AI abstractions and serialization

• Fixed MEAI001 leakage from RequiresConfirmation in source-generated AIContent contexts by using an internal JSON-included backing member while keeping the public experimental member ignored for source-generation metadata (#7659).

Test Improvements

• Added stabilization regression coverage to verify consumer source-generated List<AIContent> contexts compile and round-trip without requiring MEAI001 suppression (#7659).

Full Changelog

• v10.8.2...v10.8.3

This servicing release updates the Microsoft.Extensions.AI, Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Abstractions, and Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI packages to 10.8.1 with two targeted fixes: correct tool-call/tool-result ordering when resuming approval-gated functions with service-managed chat history, and preservation of the OpenAI Responses reasoning item id for stateless (store=false) encrypted reasoning.

Full Changelog: v10.7.0...v10.8.0

v10.7.0 graduates the Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.ResourceMonitoring.Kubernetes package to stable. The package registers a Kubernetes-aware ResourceQuotaProvider that reads the pod's CPU and memory requests and limits and exposes them to Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.ResourceMonitoring as baseline and maximum quotas, which then feed the request and limit dimensions of the published resource utilization metrics. The companion ResourceQuota and ResourceQuotaProvider types in Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.ResourceMonitoring graduate to stable in the same change so that consumers can implement custom quota providers without taking an experimental dependency.

On the AI side, Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI moves to OpenAI 2.11.0 and fixes a deserialization bug in ToolJson.AdditionalProperties so that JSON Schema additionalProperties values shaped as sub-schema objects (for example {"type":"string"}) are preserved instead of throwing during deserialization. HostedFileContent.SizeInBytes and HostedFileContent.CreatedAt graduate to stable since both values are consistently available across hosted-file providers, while Purpose and Scope remain experimental as provider-shaped vocabulary. FunctionInvokingChatClient drops a backward-compat path that auto-marked ToolApprovalResponseContent entries with InformationalOnly: true; consumers that need to continue accepting sessions serialized before #7468 can use the sample ApprovalHistoryNormalizingChatClient middleware added in the test project.

Experimental API Changes

Now Stable

• Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.ResourceMonitoring.Kubernetes package is now stable #7253
• Resource Monitoring ResourceQuota and ResourceQuotaProvider APIs are now stable (previously EXTEXP0008) #7253
• HostedFileContent.SizeInBytes and HostedFileContent.CreatedAt are now stable (previously MEAI001) #7513

What's Changed

• Upgrade OpenAI package from 2.10.0 to 2.11.0 #7544 by @jozkee (co-authored by @Copilot)
• Fix ToolJson.AdditionalProperties to accept sub-schema objects #7546 by @jozkee (co-authored by @Copilot)

Full Changelog: v10.5.2...v10.6.0

This patch release ships a single fix to Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData.Abstractions, correcting StorageName resolution when external serialization is enabled. Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData.ConformanceTests, Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Abstractions, Microsoft.Extensions.AI, and Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI are published alongside it for version coherency — they contain no code changes from 10.5.1.

What's Changed

Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData.Abstractions

• Minor fixes to MEVD.Abstractions: correct StorageName behavior when external serialization is enabled, and disable a warning for net462. (by @roji in #7475)

Full Changelog: v10.5.1...v10.5.2

Version 10.5.1 of the Microsoft.Extensions.AI packages stabilizes CodeInterpreter, WebSearch, and ImageGeneration tool content types. The release adds new experimental tool search and OpenAI request policy hooks. And the OpenTelemetry gen-ai semantic conventions are updated to align with v1.41.

The 'aiagent-webapi' project template in Microsoft.Agents.AI.ProjectTemplates is updated to align with v1.3.0 of Agent Framework, updating the OpenTelemetry dependencies within the template projects as well.

Experimental API Changes

Now Stable

The following types previously emitted the MEAI001 experimental diagnostic and are now stable.

• CodeInterpreter and WebSearch tool content types are now stable #7493
  • CodeInterpreterToolCallContent
  • CodeInterpreterToolResultContent
  • WebSearchToolCallContent
  • WebSearchToolResultContent
• ImageGeneration tool content types and tool are now stable #7476
  • ImageGenerationToolCallContent
  • ImageGenerationToolResultContent
  • HostedImageGenerationTool
  • ImageGenerationOptions
  • ImageGenerationResponseFormat (the Hosted enum value remains experimental)
  • IImageGenerator and the rest of the image generation infrastructure also remain experimental

New Experimental APIs

The following new APIs emit the MEAI001 experimental diagnostic.

• New experimental API: HostedToolSearchTool with DeferredTools for tool-search-driven deferred tool loading #7471
• New experimental API: OpenAIRequestPolicies extension hook for appending System.ClientModel.PipelinePolicy instances to outgoing OpenAI requests #7495

Breaking Changes to Experimental APIs

• WebSearchToolResultContent.Results was renamed to Outputs as part of the stabilization in #7493, aligning with CodeInterpreterToolResultContent.Outputs. The original Results property was included in version 10.4.0 and 10.5.0; this is a binary breaking change and consumers need to update to consume the updated property.

  WebSearchToolResultContent content = ...;
  - IList<AIContent>? items = content.Results;
  + IList<AIContent>? items = content.Outputs;
