Microsoft Reactor

In this session we will transform our chatbot into an intelligent agent that can call tools to interact with the outside world. We will build a tool framework with ITool, IToolRegistry, and IToolExecutor interfaces, and implement production-ready tools for file system access, shell commands, web fetching, and task scheduling — all with built-in security guardrails.
At the end we will have an agent that reasons through multi-step tasks on its own. Ask it to "Summarize my project's README" or "Check what's in my Downloads folder" — it will break the problem into steps, call the right tools, and report back.
Key Topics & Technologies:
Agent orchestration and reasoning loops
Tool abstraction and design patterns
Security considerations (path traversal, command injection, SSRF)
Tool UI and result streaming
LLM function calling protocol
Dependency injection and service registration
Structured logging and observability hooks
