## AI overview

The article explains how to add Microsoft Agent Framework reasoning to Python Azure Functions through Agent bindings. It walks through a direct HTTP-triggered function and a Durable Functions orchestration, keeping validation, data preparation, control flow, and trust boundaries in deterministic application code while using the agent for bounded reasoning tasks.
