Microsoft Agent Framework cuts python-1.11.0, hardening Bedrock, Foundry, Gemini, Claude, and A2A connectors

GitHub (microsoft/agent-framework)·low signal

Published July 10, 2026, the python-1.11.0 release of microsoft/agent-framework (12K stars) lands the [1.11.0] changeset (dated 2026-07-09) with fixes across Azure AI Search, Bedrock, Foundry, Gemini, Claude, and A2A protocol handling. It's a maintenance drop on top of the April 1.0 GA, reflecting the steady post-1.0 hardening cadence of the AutoGen + Semantic Kernel merger. Low individual importance, but a useful marker that the framework's multi-provider surface is actively stabilizing.
