* feat(azure): forward credential_scopes to Azure AI Inference client
Adds a credential_scopes field to the native Azure AI Inference
provider and a matching AZURE_CREDENTIAL_SCOPES env var
(comma-separated). The value is forwarded to ChatCompletionsClient /
AsyncChatCompletionsClient when set, letting keyless / Entra-based
callers target a specific Azure AD audience (e.g.
https://cognitiveservices.azure.com/.default) without subclassing the
provider. Matches the upstream azure.ai.inference SDK kwarg of the
same name.
Lazy build re-reads the env var so an LLM constructed at module
import (before deployment env vars are set) still picks up scopes —
same pattern as the existing AZURE_API_KEY / AZURE_ENDPOINT lazy
reads. to_config_dict round-trips the field.
* refactor(azure): tighten credential_scopes env handling
Address review feedback:
- Move os.getenv into the helper so AZURE_CREDENTIAL_SCOPES appears once
- Match the surrounding api_key/endpoint `or` style in the validator
- Drop the list() defensive copy in to_config_dict — every other field
in that method (and the base class's `stop`) is assigned by reference
* feat(flow): add optional key param to @persist decorator
Allows users to specify which state attribute to use as the
persistence key instead of always defaulting to state.id.
Usage: @persist(key='conversation_id')
Falls back to state.id when key is not provided (no breaking change).
Raises ValueError if the specified key is missing or falsy on state.
* docs(flow): document @persist key parameter for custom persistence keys
* fix(flow): use explicit None check for persist key to avoid empty-string fallback

CrewAgentExecutor is reused across sequential tasks but invoke/ainvoke
only appended to self.messages and never reset self.iterations, so
task 2 inherited task 1's history and iteration count.
* fix(flow): add execution_id separate from state.id (COR-48)
When a consumer passes `id` in `kickoff(inputs=...)`, that value
overwrites the flow's state.id — which was also being used as the
execution tracking identity for telemetry, tracing, and external
correlation. Two kickoffs sharing the same consumer id ended up
with the same tracking id, breaking any downstream system that
joins on it.
Introduces `Flow.execution_id`: a stable per-run identifier stored
as a `PrivateAttr` on the `Flow` model, exposed via property +
setter. It defaults to a fresh `uuid4` per instance, is never
touched by `inputs["id"]`, and can be assigned by outer systems
that already have an execution identity (e.g. a task id).
Switches the `current_flow_id` / `current_flow_request_id`
ContextVars to seed from `execution_id` so OTel spans emitted by
`FlowTrackable` children correlate on the stable tracking key.
`state.id` keeps its existing override semantics for
persistence/restore — consumers resuming a persisted flow via
`inputs["id"]` work exactly as before.
Adds tests covering default uniqueness per instance, immunity to
consumer `inputs["id"]`, context-var propagation, absence from
serialized state, and parity for dict-state flows.

Enables keyless Azure auth (OIDC Workload Identity Federation, Managed
Identity, Azure CLI, env-configured Service Principal) without any
crewAI-specific configuration. Customers whose deployment environment
already sets the standard azure-identity env vars get keyless auth for
free; the existing API-key path is unchanged.

* perf: defer MCP SDK import by fixing import path in agent/core.py
- Change 'from crewai.mcp import MCPServerConfig' to direct path
'from crewai.mcp.config import MCPServerConfig' to avoid triggering
mcp/__init__.py which eagerly loads the full mcp SDK (~300-400ms)
- Move MCPToolResolver import into get_mcp_tools() method body since
it's only used at runtime, not in type annotations
Saves ~200ms on 'import crewai' cold start.
* perf: lazy-load heavy MCP imports in mcp/__init__.py
MCPClient, MCPToolResolver, BaseTransport, and TransportType now use
__getattr__ lazy loading. These pull in the full mcp SDK (~400ms) but
are only needed at runtime when agents actually connect to MCP servers.
Lightweight config and filter types remain eagerly imported.
* perf: lazy-load all event type modules in events/__init__.py
Previously only agent_events were lazy-loaded; all other event type
modules (crew, flow, knowledge, llm, guardrail, logging, mcp, memory,
reasoning, skill, task, tool_usage) were eagerly imported at package
init time. Since events/__init__.py runs whenever ANY crewai.events.*
submodule is accessed, this loaded ~12 Pydantic model modules
unnecessarily.
Now all event types use the same __getattr__ lazy-loading pattern,
with TYPE_CHECKING imports preserved for IDE/type-checker support.
Saves ~550ms on 'import crewai' cold start.
* chore: remove UNKNOWN.egg-info from version control
* fix: add MCPToolResolver to TYPE_CHECKING imports
Fixes F821 (ruff) and name-defined (mypy) from lazy-loading the
MCP import. The type annotation on _mcp_resolver needs the name
available at type-check time.
* fix: bump lxml to >=5.4.0 for GHSA-vfmq-68hx-4jfw
lxml 5.3.2 has a known vulnerability. Bump to 5.4.0+ which
includes the fix (libxml2 2.13.8). The previous <5.4.0 pin
was for etree import issues that have since been resolved.
* fix: bump exclude-newer to 2026-04-22 for lxml 6.1.0 resolution
lxml 6.1.0 (GHSA fix) was released April 17 but the exclude-newer
date was set to April 17, missing it by timestamp. Bump to April 22.
* perf: add import time benchmark script
scripts/benchmark_import_time.py measures import crewai cold start
in fresh subprocesses. Supports --runs, --json (for CI), and
--threshold (fail if median exceeds N seconds).
The companion GitHub Action workflow needs to be pushed separately
(requires workflow scope).
* new action
* Potential fix for pull request finding 'CodeQL / Workflow does not contain permissions'

* fix: merge execution metadata on duplicate batch initialization in TraceBatchManager
- Updated TraceBatchManager to merge execution metadata when a batch is initialized multiple times.
- Enhanced logging to reflect the merging of metadata during duplicate initialization.
- Added a test case to verify that execution metadata is correctly merged when initializing a batch after a lazy action.
* drop env events emitting from traces listener
Task fields that store class references (output_pydantic, output_json,
response_model, converter_cls) caused PydanticSerializationError when
RuntimeState serialized Crew entities during checkpointing. Serialize
to model_json_schema() and hydrate back via create_model_from_schema.
The guardrail retry path passed a Pydantic object directly to
TaskOutput.raw (which expects a string), causing a ValidationError
when output_pydantic is set and a guardrail fails. Mirror the
BaseModel check from the initial execution path into both sync
and async retry loops.
Closes#5544 (part 1)
Gemini thinking models (2.5+, 3.x) require thought_signature on
functionCall parts when sent back in conversation history. The streaming
path was extracting only name/args into plain dicts, losing the
signature. Return raw Part objects (matching the non-streaming path)
so the executor preserves them via raw_tool_call_parts.
Add fork classmethod, _restore_runtime, and _restore_event_scope
to BaseAgent. Fix from_checkpoint to set runtime state on the
event bus and restore event scopes. Store kickoff event ID across
checkpoints to skip re-emission on resume. Handle agent entity
type in checkpoint CLI and TUI.
The test_older_than tests in both JSON and SQLite prune suites used
hardcoded 2026-04-17 timestamps for the 'new' checkpoint. Once that
date passes, the checkpoint is older than 1 day and gets pruned along
with the 'old' one, causing assert count >= 1 to fail (count=0).
Use 2099-01-01 for the 'new' checkpoint so tests remain stable.

Add three new CLI subcommands to improve checkpoint UX:
- `crewai checkpoint resume [id]` skips the TUI and resumes from the
latest or specified checkpoint directly
- `crewai checkpoint diff <id1> <id2>` compares two checkpoints showing
changes in metadata, inputs, task status, and outputs
- `crewai checkpoint prune --keep N --older-than Xd` removes old
checkpoints from JSON dirs or SQLite databases
Also writes a resume hint to stderr after every checkpoint save so
users discover the command without needing to know it exists.
Concurrent streaming runs registered handlers on the singleton event bus
that received all LLMStreamChunkEvent emissions, causing chunks to fan
out across unrelated queues. Introduces a ContextVar-based stream scope
ID so each handler only accepts events from its own execution context.
Closes#5376
* feat: add template management commands for project templates
- Introduced command group to browse and install project templates.
- Added command to display available templates.
- Implemented command to install a selected template into the current directory.
- Created class to handle template-related operations, including fetching templates from GitHub and managing installations.
- Enhanced telemetry to track template installations.
* linted
* adressing comments
* comment addressed
Branch-aware checkpoint storage writes under subdirectories (e.g.
main/, fork/exp1/) but _list_json and _info_json_latest used flat
globs that missed them.
resolve_refs now returns type-preserving stubs instead of {} for
circular $refs, and create_model_from_schema catches JsonRefError
to fall back to lazy top-level-only inlining.
