Class FunctionCallMiddleware

Namespace
AutoGen.Core
Assembly
AutoGen.Core.dll

The middleware that process function call message that both send to an agent or reply from an agent.

If the last message is ToolCallMessage and the tool calls is available in this middleware's function map, the tools from the last message will be invoked and a ToolCallResultMessage will be returned. In this situation, the inner agent will be short-cut and won't be invoked.

Otherwise, the message will be sent to the inner agent. In this situation

if the reply from the inner agent is ToolCallMessage, and the tool calls is available in this middleware's function map, the tools from the reply will be invoked, and a ToolCallAggregateMessage will be returned.

If the reply from the inner agent is ToolCallMessage but the tool calls is not available in this middleware's function map, or the reply from the inner agent is not ToolCallMessage, the original reply from the inner agent will be returned.

When used as a streaming middleware, if the streaming reply from the inner agent is ToolCallMessageUpdate or TextMessageUpdate, This middleware will update the message accordingly and invoke the function if the tool call is available in this middleware's function map. If the streaming reply from the inner agent is other types of message, the most recent message will be used to invoke the function.
