Summary of Changes

Hello @MervinPraison, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request aims to modernize the project's dependency on the AutoGen framework by migrating from the pyautogen package to ag2. This upgrade is crucial as ag2 is the official continuation of Microsoft AutoGen, ensuring the project stays current with the latest developments and improvements in the ecosystem. The transition is designed to be seamless due to the shared module structure between the two packages.

Highlights

  • Dependency Upgrade: I've updated the pyproject.toml file to replace pyautogen==0.2.29 with ag2>=0.3.2 across all relevant dependency groups, including project.optional-dependencies.autogen, project.dependencies, and tool.poetry.group.dev.dependencies. This aligns the project with the official successor package for Microsoft AutoGen.
  • Documentation Update: I've modified the src/praisonai/tests/integration/README.md to reflect the new dependency. Specifically, the installation instructions and troubleshooting tips for AutoGen tests now correctly reference pip install ag2 instead of pip install pyautogen.
  • Backward Compatibility: The change maintains backward compatibility as both pyautogen and ag2 provide the autogen module, ensuring existing code that imports autogen will continue to function without modification.

PR Review: Upgrade from pyautogen to ag2 package

I've completed a comprehensive review of this PR to ensure the upgrade from pyautogen to ag2 is properly implemented with full backward compatibility.

Tasks:

  • Read current PR changes in detail
  • Search web for ag2 package documentation and compatibility info (Web search not available, analyzed codebase and tested locally)
  • Scan entire codebase for any other pyautogen references
  • Verify version specification (ag2>=0.3.2) is correct
  • Test backward compatibility claims
  • Check for any breaking changes or missing dependencies
  • Provide detailed review feedback
  • Make minimal fixes if needed (No fixes required - PR is correct)
  • Final review of any applied changes

✅ Review Results: APPROVED

Changes Analysis:

✅ pyproject.toml Updates (Correct):

  • autogen = ["ag2>=0.3.2", "praisonai-tools>=0.0.22", "crewai"]
  • ag2 = {version = ">=0.3.2", optional = true}
  • Poetry extras properly updated ✓

✅ Documentation Updates (Correct):

  • Integration test README updated from pip install pyautogenpip install ag2
  • Troubleshooting section updated ✓

Compatibility Testing Results:

✅ Successfully Verified:

  • ag2 v0.9.6 installed and tested successfully
  • Backward compatibility confirmed: import autogen works identically
  • API compatibility: All expected classes available (AssistantAgent, UserProxyAgent, ConversableAgent, GroupChat, etc.)
  • Integration test passes: test_autogen_import executes successfully
  • No code changes required: All 8 existing import autogen statements work seamlessly

✅ Version Specification:

  • ag2>=0.3.2 is appropriate (current: v0.9.6)
  • Using >= allows for future compatibility ✓

Codebase Impact Assessment:

No Breaking Changes Found:

  • Analyzed all autogen imports across the codebase
  • All imports use import autogen (not package-specific imports)
  • ag2 provides identical autogen module interface
  • Test suite compatibility maintained

Lock File Status:

⚠️ Note for Maintainer:
The poetry.lock and uv.lock files still reference pyautogen but this doesn't affect functionality. They should be regenerated in a separate PR to avoid dependency conflicts (I encountered pytest version conflicts when attempting to update them).


🎯 Final Recommendation: MERGE

This PR correctly implements the upgrade from pyautogen to ag2 with:

  • Perfect backward compatibility - no code changes needed
  • Correct dependency specification - ag2>=0.3.2 is appropriate
  • Proper documentation updates - installation instructions updated
  • Verified functionality - import tests pass with ag2
  • Minimal scope - focused change without unnecessary modifications

The PR successfully addresses issue #1051 and maintains all existing functionality while upgrading to the official ag2 package (Microsoft AutoGen's successor).

Note: Lock file updates can be handled in a separate maintenance PR to avoid complicating this focused upgrade.

Code Review

This pull request correctly upgrades the pyautogen dependency to its official successor, ag2. The changes in pyproject.toml and the integration test README.md are consistent with this goal. I've added a couple of suggestions to the README.md to improve the clarity and completeness of the test setup instructions by recommending the installation of the full autogen optional dependency group.

To ensure a complete and correct testing environment for AutoGen integration, it's better to install the full autogen extra. This will install ag2 along with other required dependencies like praisonai-tools and crewai, as defined in pyproject.toml. This prevents potential missing dependency issues and aligns with how the application's extras are defined.

Similar to the installation instruction, the solution for the ImportError should point to installing the complete autogen extra. This ensures all necessary dependencies for the AutoGen framework integration are installed correctly.

🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
src/praisonai/pyproject.toml (2)

94-94: Keep the same version spec everywhere for clarity
In [project.optional-dependencies] you explicitly pin the minimum version (ag2>=0.3.2) while the [tool.poetry.extras] list relies on the implicit spec coming from the main dependency table. This works, but readers may assume the extras pull the latest any version.

-autogen = ["ag2", "praisonai-tools", "crewai"]
+autogen = ["ag2>=0.3.2", "praisonai-tools", "crewai"]

Aligning the two locations avoids subtle confusion.

Also applies to: 289-289


128-128: Consider adding an upper bound to protect against future breaking changes
ag2 is still pre-1.0; the authors may ship backward-incompatible 0.x bumps. A conservative spec keeps CI green:

-ag2 = {version = ">=0.3.2", optional = true}
+ag2 = {version = ">=0.3.2,<0.4.0", optional = true}

If you prefer to stay on the bleeding edge, feel free to ignore.

src/praisonai/tests/integration/README.md (2)

148-149: Mention the minimum supported version in the install hint

-pip install ag2
+pip install "ag2>=0.3.2"

Keeps the doc in sync with pyproject.toml.


252-255: Ditto for the troubleshooting snippet

PR Reviewer Guide 🔍

Here are some key observations to aid the review process:

🎫 Ticket compliance analysis 🔶

1051 - Partially compliant

Compliant requirements:

• Replace pyautogen with ag2 in pyproject.toml
• Update installation instructions in README to use ag2 instead of pyautogen

Non-compliant requirements:

• Use ag2==0.2.29 version (PR uses ag2>=0.3.2 instead)

Requires further human verification:

• Verify that ag2>=0.3.2 is compatible with all existing packages and functionality
• Test that backward compatibility is maintained with autogen module imports

⏱️ Estimated effort to review: 2 🔵🔵⚪⚪⚪
🧪 No relevant tests
🔒 No security concerns identified
⚡ Recommended focus areas for review

Version Mismatch

The ticket specifies using ag2==0.2.29 but the PR implements ag2>=0.3.2. This version discrepancy needs validation to ensure compatibility and may require justification for the version change.

autogen = ["ag2>=0.3.2", "praisonai-tools>=0.0.22", "crewai"]
autogen-v4 = [
Inconsistent Versioning

Line 289 uses a different version format (ag2>=0.3.2) compared to the optional dependency format on line 128 (>=0.3.2). This inconsistency should be reviewed for proper dependency management.

autogen = ["ag2>=0.3.2", "praisonai-tools>=0.0.22", "crewai"]
autogen-v4 = ["autogen-agentchat", "autogen-ext", "autogen-core", "praisonai-tools", "crewai"]
