ModelProviderRegistry

Namespace AgentPrism · Assembly AgentPrism.Core.dll

Registry that holds the registered IModelProvider implementations by name, and the single place that assembles the model-call pipeline.

public sealed class ModelProviderRegistry : IModelProviderRegistry

objectModelProviderRegistry

IModelProviderRegistry

object.GetType(), object.ToString(), object.Equals(object?), object.Equals(object?, object?), object.ReferenceEquals(object?, object?), object.GetHashCode()

By default no provider is registered; the AgentPrism.OpenAI package adds the first provider with UseOpenAI. Trying to compile while no provider is registered produces a clear error.

The entire pipeline is assembled here. Previously the four provider packages each assembled the UseFunctionInvocation + UseOpenTelemetry chain inside themselves; every ring the registry wrapped stayed OUTSIDE that chain, making it impossible to write a ring that sees the tool-call turns. Now IModelProvider returns the raw client and the pipeline is assembled in a single place; a third-party provider inherits every ring for free too.

ModelProviderRegistry(IEnumerable<IModelProvider>, ModelProviderCircuitBreaker?, IAttachmentStore?, ITenantContext?, ContentGuardPipeline?, ILoggerFactory?, ProviderConcurrencyLimiter?, ITenantProviderBindingStore?, ITenantEgressPolicyStore?, TenantProviderCredentialResolver?)

Section titled “ ModelProviderRegistry(IEnumerable<IModelProvider>, ModelProviderCircuitBreaker?, IAttachmentStore?, ITenantContext?, ContentGuardPipeline?, ILoggerFactory?, ProviderConcurrencyLimiter?, ITenantProviderBindingStore?, ITenantEgressPolicyStore?, TenantProviderCredentialResolver?)”

Creates a new registry from the registered providers.

public ModelProviderRegistry(IEnumerable<IModelProvider> providers, ModelProviderCircuitBreaker? circuitBreaker = null, IAttachmentStore? attachmentStore = null, ITenantContext? tenantContext = null, ContentGuardPipeline? contentGuards = null, ILoggerFactory? loggerFactory = null, ProviderConcurrencyLimiter? concurrencyLimiter = null, ITenantProviderBindingStore? tenantProviderBindings = null, ITenantEgressPolicyStore? tenantEgressPolicies = null, TenantProviderCredentialResolver? credentialResolver = null)

providers IEnumerable<IModelProvider>

The model providers.

circuitBreaker ModelProviderCircuitBreaker?

The circuit breaker that wraps the produced clients. If null, no wrapping is done (for example, in directly constructed tests).

attachmentStore IAttachmentStore?

The store used to resolve attachment references. If not given together with tenantContext, no attachment-resolving wrapper is added.

tenantContext ITenantContext?

The tenant context used for attachment resolution.

contentGuards ContentGuardPipeline?

The content inspection pipeline. If null or no IContentGuard is registered, the inspection wrapper is never added.

loggerFactory ILoggerFactory?

The logger factory for UseFunctionInvocation and UseOpenTelemetry. If null, MAF uses its own default.

concurrencyLimiter ProviderConcurrencyLimiter?

The per-provider outgoing concurrency limiter. If null, no limiting wrapper is added.

tenantProviderBindings ITenantProviderBindingStore?

The per-tenant provider binding store (BYOK). If null, or if tenantContext is null, ModelProviderRegistry.CreateChatClientAsync behaves exactly like ModelProviderRegistry.CreateChatClient.

tenantEgressPolicies ITenantEgressPolicyStore?

The per-tenant egress policy store. If null, no tenant is restricted.

credentialResolver TenantProviderCredentialResolver?

Resolves a TenantProviderBinding into a ModelProviderCredential. Required together with tenantProviderBindings for BYOK to take effect.

ArgumentNullException

providers is null.

AgentPrismException

The same provider name has been registered more than once.

Produces a chat client for the given binding, using the provider’s setup-time credential.

public IChatClient CreateChatClient(ModelBinding binding)

binding ModelBinding

The model binding.

IChatClient

The chat client.

This overload does not resolve a tenant provider binding (BYOK) or check an egress policy: both need an async store lookup, which this synchronous method cannot perform. Callers that must honor a tenant’s own credential and egress policy — this includes the real agent-run compile path — use IModelProviderRegistry.CreateChatClientAsync instead.

AgentPrismException

No provider is registered with the name in ModelBinding.Provider.

CreateChatClientAsync(ModelBinding, CancellationToken)

Section titled “ CreateChatClientAsync(ModelBinding, CancellationToken)”

Produces a chat client for the given binding, first resolving the current tenant’s own provider credential and egress policy.

public ValueTask<IChatClient> CreateChatClientAsync(ModelBinding binding, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

binding ModelBinding

The model binding.

cancellationToken CancellationToken

The cancellation token.

ValueTask<IChatClient>

The chat client.

When no tenant context is registered, or the tenant has no binding for the provider, behavior is identical to IModelProviderRegistry.CreateChatClient (the no-surprises rule: zero surprise when BYOK is not configured).

AgentPrismException

No provider is registered with the name in ModelBinding.Provider, the tenant’s egress policy does not allow the provider, or the tenant’s provider binding cannot be resolved to a credential value.

HasTenantProviderOverrideAsync(ModelBinding, CancellationToken)

Section titled “ HasTenantProviderOverrideAsync(ModelBinding, CancellationToken)”

Reports whether the current tenant has its own provider binding for binding’s primary provider or any of its ModelBinding.Fallbacks (BYOK).

public ValueTask<bool> HasTenantProviderOverrideAsync(ModelBinding binding, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

binding ModelBinding

The model binding to check.

cancellationToken CancellationToken

The cancellation token.

ValueTask<bool>

true if a tenant-specific credential would be baked into the chat client IModelProviderRegistry.CreateChatClientAsync produces for this binding.

A compiled agent’s chat client is a fixed pipeline object — once a tenant’s credential is resolved into it, changing or deleting the underlying binding has no further effect on that object. A cache keyed only by definition identity (CompiledAgentCache) must therefore never hold an agent built with a tenant-specific credential; callers use this method to decide whether to bypass that cache.

Returns the definitions of the registered providers.

public IReadOnlyList<ModelProviderDescriptor> List()

IReadOnlyList<ModelProviderDescriptor>

The provider definitions.
