AI agents and multi-agent systems invigorate enterprise technology at Microsoft Build 2025
Microsoft Build 2025 introduced significant advances in AI agents and multi-agent systems. Copilot Studio now lets organizations build multi-agent solutions where agents delegate tasks between each other, leveraging tools like Microsoft 365 Agent Builder, Azure AI Agents Service, and Azure Fabric. GitHub Copilot evolves into GitHub Coding Agent, expanding from pair programming to peer programming, while Copilot Studio now targets professional developers and supports external model integration from Azure Foundry. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables unified orchestration for agents across Microsoft’s stack. New local deployment features put AI Foundry (formerly Windows Copilot Runtime) on both Windows and Mac. SQL Server 2025 now features vector and AI search capabilities. These innovations establish robust foundations for generative, multi-agent, and autonomous business process automation across enterprise IT.

Architecture
Agents can be designed and orchestrated in Copilot Studio using Microsoft 365 Agent Builder, integrated with Azure AI Agents Service and Microsoft Fabric. MCP (Model Context Protocol) facilitates model and agent interoperability, with deployment options both on cloud and locally (AI Foundry). GitHub Coding Agent integrates with development platforms for codebase automation.
