# Additional Packages

The *Core* and *Contracts* packages will give you what you need for writing and running agents using the Core API within a single process.

- *Microsoft.AutoGen.AgentChat* - An implementation of the AgentChat package for building chat-centric agent orchestration on top of the Core SDK
- *Microsoft.AutoGen.Agents* - a package that has a small number of default agents you can use.
- *Microsoft.AutoGen.Extensions* - Extensions to support closely related projects including Aspire, Microsoft.Extensions.AI, and Semantic Kernel

```sh
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.AgentChat --version 0.4.0-dev-1
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.Agents --version 0.4.0-dev-1
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.Extensions --version 0.4.0-dev-1
```

To enable running a system with agents in different processes that allows for x-language communication between python and .NET agents, there are additional packages:

- *Microsoft.AutoGen.Core.Grpc* - the .NET client runtime for agents in a distributed system. It has the same API as *Microsoft.AutoGen.Core*.
- *Microsoft.AutoGen.RuntimeGatewway.Grpc* - the .NET server side of the distributed system that allows you to run multiple gateways to manage fleets of agents and enables x-language interoperability.
- *Microsoft.AutoGen.AgentHost* - A .NET Aspire project that hosts the Grpc Service

```sh
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.Core.Grpc --version 0.4.0-dev-1
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.RuntimeGateway.Grpc --version 0.4.0-dev-1
dotnet add package Microsoft.AutoGen.AgentHost --version 0.4.0-dev-1
```
