# {short title of solved problem and solution}
|
|
|
|
## Context and Problem Statement
|
|
|
|
The `KernelFunctionMetadata.PluginName` property is populated as a side-effect of calling `KernelPlugin.GetFunctionsMetadata`.
|
|
The reason for this behavior is to allow a `KernelFunction` instance to be associated with multiple `KernelPlugin` instances.
|
|
The downside of this behavior is the `KernelFunctionMetadata.PluginName` property is not available to `IFunctionFilter` callbacks.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this ADR is to propose a change that will allow developers to decide when `KernelFunctionMetadata.PluginName` will be populated.
|
|
|
|
Issues:
|
|
|
|
1. [Investigate if we should fix the PluginName in the KernelFunction metadata](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/issues/4706)
|
|
1. [Plugin name inside FunctionInvokingContext in th IFunctionFilter is null](https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/issues/5452)
|
|
|
|
## Decision Drivers
|
|
|
|
- Do not break existing applications.
|
|
- Provide ability to make the `KernelFunctionMetadata.PluginName` property available to `IFunctionFilter` callbacks.
|
|
|
|
## Considered Options
|
|
|
|
- Clone each `KernelFunction` when it is added to a `KernelPlugin` and set the plugin name in the clone `KernelFunctionMetadata`.
|
|
- Add a new parameter to `KernelPluginFactory.CreateFromFunctions` to enable setting the plugin name in the associated `KernelFunctionMetadata` instances. Once set the `KernelFunctionMetadata.PluginName` cannot be changed. Attempting to do so will result in an `InvalidOperationException` being thrown.
|
|
- Leave as is and do not support this use case as it may make the behavior of the Semantic Kernel seem inconsistent.
|
|
|
|
## Decision Outcome
|
|
|
|
Chosen option: Clone each `KernelFunction`, because result is a consistent behavior and allows the same function can be added to multiple `KernelPlugin`'s.
|
|
|
|
## Pros and Cons of the Options
|
|
|
|
### Clone each `KernelFunction`
|
|
|
|
PR: https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/pull/5422
|
|
|
|
- Bad, the same function can be added to multiple `KernelPlugin`'s.
|
|
- Bad, because behavior is consistent.
|
|
- Good, because there are not breaking change to API signature.
|
|
- Bad, because additional `KernelFunction` instances are created.
|
|
|
|
### Add a new parameter to `KernelPluginFactory.CreateFromFunctions`
|
|
|
|
PR: https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/pull/5171
|
|
|
|
- Good, because no additional `KernelFunction` instances are created.
|
|
- Bad, because the same function cannot be added to multiple `KernelPlugin`'s
|
|
- Bad, because it will be confusing i.e. depending on how the `KernelPlugin` is created it will behave differently.
|
|
- Bad, because there is a minor breaking change to API signature.
