Semantic Kernel (SK) is Microsoft's open-source SDK for building AI agents and applications in Python, C#, and Java. It provides a rich abstraction layer over LLMs with support for plugins, memory, vector stores, auto function calling, and multi-agent orchestration.
What You'll Build¶
- ✅ Your first SK agent powered by GitHub Models (free)
- ✅ Plugins (native functions + OpenAPI connectors)
- ✅ Vector memory for context-aware agents
- ✅ Auto function calling with planners
- ✅ Multi-agent orchestration with an orchestrator + worker pattern
