Proposal: Donate the SharpAIKit Project to Microsoft

Hello Microsoft Team,

My name is Dustin Dong, the author and current maintainer of SharpAIKit, an advanced AI application framework for .NET.

I would like to formally propose transferring SharpAIKit to Microsoft as an official .NET / Azure AI developer framework.

📘 What is SharpAIKit?

SharpAIKit is a modern AI framework for .NET that provides:

✔ FSM-based AI graph orchestration

(Comparable to LangGraph / DSPy workflows, but fully native to .NET)

✔ Native C# Code Interpreter (Roslyn)

A safe, high-performance, Python-free code interpreter for AI agents.

✔ DSPy-style Prompt Optimizer

Self-improving LLM pipelines fully integrated into .NET.

✔ Unified LLM Client

Supports OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, Yi, Groq, and all OpenAI-compatible APIs.

✔ RAG + Agents

Built-in RAG engine, memory modules, tool calling, and multi-agent support.

📌 Why transfer SharpAIKit to Microsoft?

1. Strengthens the .NET AI ecosystem

Currently, .NET lacks a native equivalent to LangChain/LangGraph.
SharpAIKit fills this gap completely.

2. Strong synergy with Azure OpenAI and Semantic Kernel

SharpAIKit can serve as the orchestration/runtime layer for AI developers on Azure.

3. Industry-level architecture

The FSM engine, C# interpreter, and optimizer provide a strong foundation for production AI workflows.

4. I am willing to transfer the full copyright to Microsoft

Under Microsoft’s contribution agreement.

📌 What I am proposing

✔ Transfer the full SharpAIKit project to Microsoft

or

✔ Migrate the repository under github.com/microsoft

and

✔ Continue to serve as an official maintainer or consultant

I am ready to provide:

• Project donation proposal (PDF)
• Technical architecture brief
• Governance/maintenance plan
• Copyright transfer declaration
• Migration steps
