OpenHub.Agents

English | 简体中文 | 日本語 | Français


OpenHub.Agents is a task-oriented abstraction layer built on top of the Microsoft Agents SDK and the GitHub Copilot SDK. It wraps different AI backends behind a unified ITaskAgent API so callers can create tasks and consume streaming updates in one consistent way.

Features

  • Unified ITaskAgent abstraction for task creation and streaming subscriptions
  • Multi-targeting support for netstandard2.0, netstandard2.1, net8.0, net9.0, and net10.0
  • Two GitHub Copilot execution modes:
    • shared session with preserved conversation context
    • factory mode with a fresh session per task
  • Rx-based streaming model for reasoning, content, tool calls, media, and usage updates
  • Central package management with Directory.Packages.props

Installation

dotnet add package OpenHub.Agents.Abstractions
dotnet add package OpenHub.Agents.AIAgent
dotnet add package OpenHub.Agents.GitHubCopilot

Install only the packages you need:

  • OpenHub.Agents.Abstractions for contracts and models
  • OpenHub.Agents.AIAgent when you want to adapt Microsoft.Agents.AI.AIAgent
  • OpenHub.Agents.GitHubCopilot when you want GitHub Copilot integration

Build and test

dotnet build OpenHub.Agents.slnx
dotnet test tests\OpenHub.Agents.Tests\OpenHub.Agents.Tests.csproj

Quick Start

Wrap an AIAgent

ITaskAgent taskAgent = chatClient
    .AsAIAgent(options)
    .AsTaskAgent();

CreateTaskResponse response = await taskAgent.CreateTaskAsync(new("Summarize this repo."));

using IDisposable contentSubscription = response.Subscriber.TaskContentChunk.Subscribe(chunk =>
{
    Console.Write(chunk.Content);
});

await response.Subscriber.WaitForCompletionAsync();

Wrap GitHub Copilot

await using CopilotClient copilotClient = new();
await copilotClient.StartAsync();

SessionConfig sessionConfig = new()
{
    Streaming = true,
    Model = "claude-sonnet-4.6",
    OnPermissionRequest = PermissionHandler.ApproveAll
};

ITaskAgent factoryAgent = copilotClient.AsTaskAgent(sessionConfig);

GitHub Copilot can be used in two ways:

  • CopilotSession.AsTaskAgent(...): reuse one session and preserve conversation state
  • CopilotClient.AsTaskAgent(...): create a fresh session per task

Notes

  • OpenHub.Agents.GitHubCopilot currently depends on preview package Microsoft.Agents.AI.GitHub.Copilot.
  • Package versions are managed centrally via Directory.Packages.props.
  • Repository-wide build conventions live in Directory.Build.props and .editorconfig.
