agent-framework-hosting-responses

OpenAI Responses-shaped helpers for app-owned Agent Framework hosting.

This package provides the Responses-specific conversion layer:

• responses_to_run(...) — convert a Responses request body into Agent Framework run values.
• responses_session_id(...) — extract a prior resp_* response id or conv_* conversation id from the request body when present.
• create_response_id(...) — mint a Responses-shaped response id.
• responses_from_run(...) — convert an AgentResponse into a Responses-compatible JSON payload.
• responses_from_streaming_run(...) — convert an Agent Framework ResponseStream into Responses-compatible SSE events.

FastAPI/Starlette/Django/Azure Functions code owns route registration, authentication, status codes, response construction, and background work.

        run["messages"],
        session=session,

    )
    await state.set_session(response_id, session)
    return JSONResponse(responses_from_run(result, response_id=response_id, session_id=session_id))

The base execution-state helpers live in agent-framework-hosting.
