CoreTemplate.AI
A modular, strategy-based AI abstraction layer for .NET that supports multiple AI providers like OpenRouter and Ollama, with support for real-time streaming, semantic memory, dynamic model validation, runtime provider switching, and now — Function Calling.
🔔 What's New in 1.4.0
🧠 Function Calling Support
This version introduces built-in support for AI Function Calling, enabling your .NET backend to handle function invocations requested by the AI model.
Whether using OpenRouter’s tool_calls or Ollama’s tools, your registered C# methods can now be discovered and executed in response to a prompt.
✨ Example Usage
1. Define your function
[Function("get_server_time", "Returns current server time")]
public static object GetServerTime() => new { time = DateTime.UtcNow };
2. Register Your Function Registry
Create a class implementing IFunctionRegistry:
public class MyFunctionRegistry : IFunctionRegistry
{
public IEnumerable<AiFunction> GetAll()
{
yield return new AiFunction(typeof(MyFunctions).GetMethod(nameof(MyFunctions.GetServerTime))!);
}
}
Then register it in Startup.cs or Program.cs:
services.AddSingleton<IFunctionRegistry, MyFunctionRegistry>();
3. Inject and Call the AI Service
Use the IAIService to invoke a prompt that will trigger your registered function:
var result = await _aiService.GetCompletionAsync("What time is it right now?");
Console.WriteLine(result);
4. Sample AI Response (JSON)
{
"Content": "Function get_server_time executed successfully.",
"FunctionExecuted": true,
"FunctionName": "get_server_time",
"FunctionResult": {
"time": "2025-08-20T10:14:28Z"
}
}
