# Move Agent Orchestration/Workflows out of Code with Agent Framework Declarative Workflows 1.0

**[DevBlogs](https://daily.dev/sources/devblogs)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Microsoft's Agent Framework now offers Declarative Workflows 1.0, allowing developers to define multi-agent orchestration logic in YAML instead of application code. The feature is now stable for both Python (agent-framework-declarative 1.0.0) and .NET (Microsoft.Agents.AI.Workflows.Declarative). YAML definitions are loaded as standard Workflow instances, supporting sequential pipelines, conditional routing, human-in-the-loop pauses, checkpoint/resume, MCP/HTTP tool calls, and Power Fx expressions. This makes agent coordination easier to review, version, and modify without touching application code.
