Tessera.AgentFramework

Microsoft Agent Framework integration for the Tessera vector database. Enables Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and text search capabilities with Tessera as the vector search backend.

Features

  • TextSearchProvider — Provides a configured TextSearchProvider for use as an AI context provider in Microsoft Agent Framework agents.
  • Embedding pipeline — Converts text queries to vector embeddings using IEmbeddingGenerator<string, Embedding<float>>, searches Tessera for nearest neighbors, and maps results to TextSearchResult.
  • DI integration — Extension method AddTesseraTextSearch() for easy registration in IServiceCollection.

Quick Start

// Register in DI
services.AddTesseraTextSearch(options =>
{
    options.TenantId = "my-knowledge-base";
    options.TopK = 5;
    options.TextMetadataKey = "text";
    options.SourceNameMetadataKey = "source_name";
    options.SourceLinkMetadataKey = "source_url";
});

// Or create directly
var provider = new TesseraTextSearchProvider(tesseraClient, embeddingGenerator, searchOptions);
var textSearchProvider = provider.CreateTextSearchProvider();

// Use with a ChatClientAgent
var agent = chatClient.AsAIAgent(new ChatClientAgentOptions
{
    AIContextProviders = [textSearchProvider]
});

Requirements

  • Tessera.Client — Tessera vector database client
  • An IEmbeddingGenerator<string, Embedding<float>> implementation (e.g., from Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, or any Microsoft.Extensions.AI compatible provider)
