Worked on the microsoft/Agents-for-net repository to deliver credential-free authentication for Azure OpenAI within the Weather bot sample. Replaced traditional API key-based authentication with Azure CLI and Managed Identity credentials, enhancing security and streamlining the onboarding process for enterprise users. Updated the project’s README to provide clear guidance on the new setup, ensuring easier adoption and maintenance. The implementation leveraged C# and focused on authentication, Azure OpenAI integration, and sample development aligned with Semantic Kernel standards. This work removed sensitive API keys from code paths, resulting in a more secure and maintainable approach for deploying AI-powered bot solutions.
