OpenAIAgentFactory factory = new OpenAIAgentFactory(new OpenAIConnection
{
    ApiKey = configuration.OpenAiApiKey,
    NetworkTimeout = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5)
});

OpenAIAgent agent = factory.CreateAgent(new AgentOptions
{
    Model = "gpt-5",
    ReasoningEffort = OpenAIReasoningEffort.High,

});

Google

GoogleAgentFactory factory = new(new GoogleConnection
{
    ApiKey = configuration.GoogleGeminiApiKey
});

GoogleAgent agent = factory.CreateAgent(new GoogleAgentOptions
{
    Model = GenerativeAI.GoogleAIModels.Gemini25Pro,
    Tools = [AIFunctionFactory.Create(GetWeather)]
});

AnthropicAgentFactory factory = new AnthropicAgentFactory("<AnthropicApiKey">);

factory.CreateAgent(new AnthropicAgentOptions
{
    Model = "claude-sonnet-4-5",
