+# Microsoft Agents Activity
+
+[![PyPI version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/microsoft-agents-activity)](https://pypi.org/project/microsoft-agents-activity/)
+
+Core types and schemas for building conversational AI agents that work across Microsoft 365 platforms like Teams, Copilot Studio, and Webchat.
+
+# What is this?
+
+This library is part of the **Microsoft 365 Agents SDK for Python** - a comprehensive framework for building enterprise-grade conversational AI agents. The SDK enables developers to create intelligent agents that work across multiple platforms including Microsoft Teams, M365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, and web chat, with support for third-party integrations like Slack, Facebook Messenger, and Twilio.
+

+
+The SDK follows a modular architecture:
+- **Activity Layer**: Protocol definitions for cross-platform messaging
+- **Hosting Layer**: Core agent lifecycle, middleware, and web hosting
+- **Storage Layer**: Persistent state management with Azure backends
+- **Authentication Layer**: Secure identity and token management
+- **Integration Layer**: Platform-specific adapters (Teams, Copilot Studio)

+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install microsoft-agents-authentication-msal
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Basic Setup with Client Secret
+
+Define your client secrets in the ENV file
+```python
+CONNECTIONS__SERVICE_CONNECTION__SETTINGS__CLIENTID=client-id
+CONNECTIONS__SERVICE_CONNECTION__SETTINGS__CLIENTSECRET=client-secret
+CONNECTIONS__SERVICE_CONNECTION__SETTINGS__TENANTID=tenant-id
+```
+
+Load the Configuration (Code from [main.py Quickstart Sample](https://github.com/microsoft/Agents/blob/main/samples/python/quickstart/src/main.py))
+
+```python
+from .start_server import start_server
+
+start_server(
+    agent_application=AGENT_APP,
+    auth_configuration=CONNECTION_MANAGER.get_default_connection_configuration(),
+)
+```
+Then start the Agent (code snipped from (start_server.py Quickstart Sample](https://github.com/microsoft/Agents/blob/main/samples/python/quickstart/src/start_server.py)):
+
+```python
+def start_server(
+    agent_application: AgentApplication, auth_configuration: AgentAuthConfiguration
+):
+    async def entry_point(req: Request) -> Response:
+        agent: AgentApplication = req.app["agent_app"]
+        adapter: CloudAdapter = req.app["adapter"]
+        return await start_agent_process(
+            req,
+            agent,
+            adapter,
+        )
+[...]
+```
+
+## Authentication Types
+The M365 Agents SDK in Python supports the following Auth types:
+```python
+class AuthTypes(str, Enum):
+    certificate = "certificate"
+    certificate_subject_name = "CertificateSubjectName"
+    client_secret = "ClientSecret"
+    user_managed_identity = "UserManagedIdentity"
+    system_managed_identity = "SystemManagedIdentity"
+```
+
+## Key Classes
+
+- **`MsalAuth`** - Core authentication provider using MSAL
+- **`MsalConnectionManager`** - Manages multiple authentication connections
+
+## Features
+
+✅ **Multiple auth types** - Client secret, certificate, managed identity  
+✅ **Token caching** - Automatic token refresh and caching  
+✅ **Multi-tenant** - Support for different Azure AD tenants  
+✅ **Agent-to-agent** - Secure communication between agents  
+✅ **On-behalf-of** - Act on behalf of users  
+
+# Security Best Practices
+
+- Store secrets in Azure Key Vault or environment variables
+- Use managed identities when possible (no secrets to manage)
+- Regularly rotate client secrets and certificates
+- Use least-privilege principle for scopes and permissions
