AutoGen Studio

AutoGen Studio is a low-code interface built to help you rapidly prototype AI agents, enhance them with tools, compose them into teams and interact with them to accomplish tasks. It is built on AutoGen AgentChat - a high-level API for building multi-agent applications.

See a video tutorial on AutoGen Studio v0.4 (02/25) - https://youtu.be/oum6EI7wohM

Code for AutoGen Studio is on GitHub at microsoft/autogen

AutoGen Studio is meant to help you rapidly prototype multi-agent workflows and demonstrate an example of end user interfaces built with AutoGen. It is not meant to be a production-ready app. Developers are encouraged to use the AutoGen framework to build their own applications, implementing authentication, security and other features required for deployed applications.

Capabilities - What Can You Do with AutoGen Studio?

AutoGen Studio offers four main interfaces to help you build and manage multi-agent systems:

1. Team Builder

   • A visual interface for creating agent teams through declarative specification (JSON) or drag-and-drop
   • Supports configuration of all core components: teams, agents, tools, models, and termination conditions
   • Fully compatible with AgentChat's component definitions

2. Playground

   • Interactive environment for testing and running agent teams
   • Features include:
     • Live message streaming between agents
     • Visual representation of message flow through a control transition graph
     • Interactive sessions with teams using UserProxyAgent
     • Full run control with the ability to pause or stop execution

3. Gallery

   • Central hub for discovering and importing community-created components
   • Enables easy integration of third-party components

4. Deployment

   • Export and run teams in python code
   • Setup and test endpoints based on a team configuration
   • Run teams in a docker container

• If you are modifying AutoGen Studio, it has its own devcontainer. See instructions in .devcontainer/README.md to use it

A Note on Security

AutoGen Studio is a research prototype and is not meant to be used in a production environment. Some baseline practices are encouraged e.g., using Docker code execution environment for your agents.

However, other considerations such as rigorous tests related to jailbreaking, ensuring LLMs only have access to the right keys of data given the end user's permissions, and other security features are not implemented in AutoGen Studio.

If you are building a production application, please use the AutoGen framework and implement the necessary security features.
