Amplifier Orchestration Bundle
March 31, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
Event-driven orchestration primitives for multi-session coordination in the Amplifier ecosystem.
Overview
This bundle provides infrastructure for:
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| EventRouter | Cross-session pub/sub communication |
| Triggers | Timer, session event, and manual trigger sources |
| BackgroundSessionManager | Long-running sessions that respond to triggers |
Installation
uv pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/amplifier-bundle-orchestration
Quick Start
Event Routing
from amplifier_orchestration import EventRouter
router = EventRouter()
# Subscribe to events
async for event in router.subscribe(["work:completed"]):
print(f"Work done by {event.source_session_id}: {event.data}")
# Emit an event
await router.emit("work:completed", {"task_id": "123"}, source_session_id="worker-1")
# Wait for a single event with timeout
event = await router.wait_for_event(["session:end"], timeout=60.0)
Triggers
from amplifier_orchestration import TimerTrigger, SessionEventTrigger, ManualTrigger
# Timer trigger - fires at intervals
timer = TimerTrigger()
timer.configure({"interval_seconds": 60, "immediate": True})
async for event in timer.watch():
print(f"Timer fired: {event.data}")
# Session event trigger - fires on events from EventRouter
session_trigger = SessionEventTrigger(event_router)
session_trigger.configure({"event_names": ["work:completed"]})
# Manual trigger - fires programmatically
manual = ManualTrigger()
await manual.fire({"reason": "user requested"})
Background Session Manager
from amplifier_orchestration import BackgroundSessionManager, BackgroundSessionConfig
manager = BackgroundSessionManager(parent_session, event_router)
# Start a background session that runs periodically
session_id = await manager.start(BackgroundSessionConfig(
name="periodic-check",
bundle="tools:health-check",
triggers=[{"type": "timer", "config": {"interval_seconds": 300}}],
instruction_template="Run health check: {event_summary}",
pool_size=1, # Max concurrent instances
))
# Check status
status = manager.get_status()
print(f"Running: {status['running']}, Total triggers: {status['sessions'][session_id]['trigger_count']}")
# Stop when done
await manager.stop(session_id)
Use Cases
Worker Pools
Spawn worker sessions in response to queued tasks:
config = BackgroundSessionConfig(
name="worker",
bundle="workers:task-processor",
triggers=[{"type": "session_event", "config": {"event_names": ["task:queued"]}}],
pool_size=5, # Max 5 concurrent workers
instruction_template="Process task: {event_data}",
)
Periodic Tasks
Run maintenance sessions on a schedule:
config = BackgroundSessionConfig(
name="cleanup",
bundle="maintenance:cleanup",
triggers=[{"type": "timer", "config": {"interval_seconds": 3600}}],
)
Event-Driven Pipelines
Chain sessions together via events:
# Stage 1 emits when complete
await event_router.emit("stage1:complete", {"output": result})
# Stage 2 triggers on stage 1 completion
stage2_config = BackgroundSessionConfig(
name="stage2",
bundle="pipeline:stage2",
triggers=[{"type": "session_event", "config": {"event_names": ["stage1:complete"]}}],
)
API Reference
EventRouter
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
emit(name, data, source_session_id) | Emit an event to all subscribers |
subscribe(event_names, source_sessions, queue_size) | Subscribe to events (async iterator) |
wait_for_event(event_names, source_sessions, timeout) | Wait for a single event |
create_session_emitter(session_id) | Create a bound emitter for a session |
TriggerSource Protocol
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
configure(config) | Configure the trigger from a dict |
watch() | Async iterator yielding TriggerEvent objects |
stop() | Stop watching for events |
BackgroundSessionManager
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
start(config) | Start a background session, returns session_id |
stop(session_id) | Stop a specific background session |
stop_all() | Stop all background sessions |
get_status(session_id=None) | Get status of one or all sessions |
fire_manual(session_id, data) | Programmatically trigger a session |
