Tools and context for AI agents

Overview

MCP lets agents discover tools and prompts from microservices. ConnectSoft templates integrate MCP with the Microsoft Agent Framework for safe, attributed access to platform APIs.

Factory templates and SaaS platform programs standardize on .NET 10, Clean Architecture, and Azure-native services—so generated solutions inherit consistent security, observability, and upgrade paths instead of one-off frameworks.

When a client estate or integration boundary calls for this technology, we wire it with explicit ownership, contract tests, and telemetry—without diluting the Factory baseline your long-term platform depends on.

Planning a backend on Azure with predictable releases? Our stack choices are documented, template-backed, and ready to extend—talk to us about mapping your domain to a production-grade .NET platform.

Why we use it:

  • HTTP and stdio transports in templates
  • Attribute-driven tool discovery
  • Bridges agents to existing REST/gRPC services
  • Part of Factory AI/agent stack
  • Aligns with ASP.NET Core hosting and OpenAPI contracts in our templates
  • Observability hooks for Application Insights and OpenTelemetry
  • Clear Factory default versus client-specific adoption boundaries
