The hosted-agent guide uses outdated navigation and skips the local development steps between creating a sample and deploying it. This refresh gives developers one coherent path from understanding hosted agents to running and inspecting a deployed agent.

Approach

  • Follow the Python Agent Framework Basic Hosted Agent sample through local F5 debugging with Agent Inspector, then Code deployment with Remote package mode.
  • Update navigation, generated artifacts, supported ZIP runtimes, and ACR deployment choices. Keep C#, alternate protocols, and Activity/Teams setup as short branches.
  • Separate local configuration from deployment, playground version selection from endpoint routing, and API access from channel publishing. Link to Microsoft Learn for service permissions, networking, and operations.

Scope is limited to docs/intelligentapps/hosted-agents.md. No navigation, URL, or other article changes.

Before publication

The research baseline is Foundry Toolkit 1.6.11, released September 2, 2026, and official documentation reviewed September 9. This remains a draft pending:

  • Product-owner review of hosted-agent preview wording and the separate Toolkit tracing/evaluation GA boundaries.
  • A walkthrough with the public extension covering local execution, deployment, and a remote response.
  • Current, sanitized screenshots. HTML TODO comments identify the capture needs; the approval date remains unchanged.

Clarify local scaffolding and debugging, source-code and container deployment, protocols, and deployed-agent operations.

Use the Create Agent starter flow, illustrate local and remote inspection and deployment, and link to shared setup and service guidance.
