Microsoft has rebranded the Teams Toolkit to Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit, a developer framework for building AI-powered agents to automate tasks across Microsoft 365 applications.

Microsoft has introduced the Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit, a developer framework designed to streamline the creation of AI-powered agents that automate tasks across Microsoft 365 applications like Outlook, Teams, and Word. The toolkit, which evolved from the Teams Toolkit, now supports broader capabilities beyond Teams, including connectors, adaptive cards, and bots.

Overview of Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit scenarios for developers

Key Features of the Toolkit

  • Declarative Agents: The latest addition allows developers to create agents declaratively, simplifying workflow automation.
  • Multi-Format Availability: The toolkit is offered as a Visual Studio Code extension, Visual Studio extension, GitHub Copilot extension, and a standalone CLI.
  • Integrated SDKs: Includes the Microsoft 365 Agents SDK, Teams AI Library, and Agents Playground for local testing.

Why the Rebrand?

Microsoft stated the name change reflects the toolkit’s expanded focus on enabling developers to build intelligent agents across the Microsoft 365 ecosystem. Despite the rebrand, all existing components remain intact.

"(Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit)...can significantly simplify your development by providing integrated Microsoft 365 identity, cloud storage access, data from Microsoft Graph, and other services in Azure with a 'zero-configuration' approach." — Microsoft DevBlogs

Publishing and Migration

Developers can publish their agent applications to the Microsoft 365 Agent Store. Those using older versions of the Teams Toolkit must follow manual upgrade steps.
