AutoGen is archived as Microsoft ends maintenance
The pattern: 3 of the 6 website changes in this issue involve MCP (MimikFlow, NeverApply and Harvey).
What changed: AutoGen is archived, and Microsoft has ended active maintenance, including bug fixes, security fixes, new features, and support. New users are directed to Microsoft Agent Framework; existing users have a migration guide.
Why it matters: Teams with AutoGen in production now face a maintained-platform transition, not a routine version update. The cutoff covers security fixes as well as feature work, raising the cost of deferring architecture decisions.
Do this: Open AutoGen’s migration guide today, map its agents and integrations to Microsoft Agent Framework, and identify dependencies that need a replacement before the next security review.
