Add tool_choice parameter to ChatCompletionClient create and create_stream methods (#6697)
## Summary

Implements the `tool_choice` parameter for `ChatCompletionClient`
interface as requested in #6696. This allows users to restrict which
tools the model can choose from when multiple tools are available.

## Changes

### Core Interface
- Core Interface: Added `tool_choice: Tool | Literal["auto", "required",
"none"] = "auto"` parameter to `ChatCompletionClient.create()` and
`create_stream()` methods
- Model Implementations: Updated client implementations to support the
new parameter, for now, only the following model clients are supported:
  - OpenAI
  - Anthropic
  - Azure AI
  - Ollama
- `LlamaCppChatCompletionClient` currently not supported

Features
- "auto" (default): Let the model choose whether to use tools, when
there is no tool, it has no effect.
- "required": Force the model to use at least one tool
- "none": Disable tool usage completely
- Tool object: Force the model to use a specific tool

AutoGen Python packages

0.4 Docs PyPi autogen-core PyPi autogen-agentchat PyPi autogen-ext

This directory works as a single uv workspace containing all project packages. See packages to discover all project packages.

Migrating from 0.2.x?

Please refer to the migration guide for how to migrate your code from 0.2.x to 0.4.x.

Development

TL;DR, run all checks with:

uv sync --all-extras
source .venv/bin/activate
poe check

Setup

uv is a package manager that assists in creating the necessary environment and installing packages to run AutoGen.

To upgrade uv to the latest version, run:

uv self update

Virtual Environment

During development, you may need to test changes made to any of the packages.
To do so, create a virtual environment where the AutoGen packages are installed based on the current state of the directory.
Run the following commands at the root level of the Python directory:

uv sync --all-extras
source .venv/bin/activate
  • uv sync --all-extras will create a .venv directory at the current level and install packages from the current directory along with any other dependencies. The all-extras flag adds optional dependencies.
  • source .venv/bin/activate activates the virtual environment.

Common Tasks

To create a pull request (PR), ensure the following checks are met. You can run each check individually:

  • Format: poe format
  • Lint: poe lint
  • Test: poe test
  • Mypy: poe mypy
  • Pyright: poe pyright
  • Build docs: poe --directory ./packages/autogen-core/ docs-build
  • Auto rebuild+serve docs: poe --directory ./packages/autogen-core/ docs-serve
  • Check samples in python/samples: poe samples-code-check Alternatively, you can run all the checks with:
  • poe check

Note

These need to be run in the virtual environment.

Syncing Dependencies

When you pull new changes, you may need to update the dependencies. To do so, first make sure you are in the virtual environment, and then in the python directory, run:

uv sync --all-extras

This will update the dependencies in the virtual environment.

Creating a New Package

To create a new package, similar to autogen-core or autogen-chat, use the following:

uv sync --python 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate
cookiecutter ./templates/new-package/
