 The [ConversableAgent](https://docs.ag2.ai/latest/docs/api-reference/autogen/ConversableAgent) is the fundamental building block of AG2, designed to enable seamless communication between AI entities. This core agent type handles message exchange and response generation, serving as the base class for all agents in the framework.

-Human oversight is crucial for many AI workflows, especially when dealing with critical decisions, creative tasks, or situations requiring expert judgment. AG2 makes integrating human feedback seamless through its human-in-the-loop functionality.
-You can configure how and when human input is solicited using the `human_input_mode` parameter:
+# Start a conversation
+response = reviewer.run(
+            recipient=coder,
+            message="Write a Python function that computes Fibonacci numbers.",
+            max_turns=10
+        )
 
-- `ALWAYS`: Requires human input for every response
-- `NEVER`: Operates autonomously without human involvement
-- `TERMINATE`: Only requests human input to end conversations
+response.process()
 
-For convenience, AG2 provides the specialized `UserProxyAgent` class that automatically sets `human_input_mode` to `ALWAYS` and supports code execution:
+logger.info("Final output:\n%s", response.summary)
+```
+
+---
+### Orchestrating Multiple Agents
+
+AG2 enables sophisticated multi-agent collaboration through flexible orchestration patterns, allowing you to create dynamic systems where specialized agents work together to solve complex problems.
 
-Note: Before running this code, make sure to set your `OPENAI_API_KEY` as an environment variable. This example uses `gpt-4o-mini`, but you can replace it with any other [model](https://docs.ag2.ai/latest/docs/user-guide/models/amazon-bedrock) supported by AG2.
+Here’s how to build a team of **teacher**, **lesson planner**, and **reviewer** agents working together to design a lesson plan:
 
 ```python
-# 1. Import ConversableAgent and UserProxyAgent classes

-llm_config = LLMConfig(api_type="openai", model="gpt-4o-mini")
+logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
 
+llm_config = LLMConfig.from_json(path="OAI_CONFIG_LIST")
 
-# 3. Create our LLM agent
-with llm_config:
-  assistant = ConversableAgent(
-      name="assistant",
-      system_message="You are a helpful assistant.",
-  )
+# Define lesson planner and reviewer
+planner_message = "You are a classroom lesson planner. Given a topic, write a lesson plan for a fourth grade class."
+reviewer_message = "You are a classroom lesson reviewer. Compare the plan to the curriculum and suggest up to 3 improvements."
 
-# 4. Create a human agent with manual input mode
-human = ConversableAgent(

 )
-# or

-# 5. Start the chat
-human.initiate_chat(
-    recipient=assistant,
-    message="Hello! What's 2 + 2?"
+lesson_reviewer = ConversableAgent(
+    name="reviewer_agent",
+    system_message=reviewer_message,
+    description="Provides one round of feedback to lesson plans.",
+    llm_config=llm_config,

-### Orchestrating multiple agents

+
+response = run_group_chat(
+    pattern=auto_selection,
+    messages="Let's introduce our kids to the solar system.",
+    max_rounds=20,
+)
 
-The framework offers both custom orchestration and several built-in collaboration patterns including `GroupChat` and `Swarm`.

+

-Here's how to implement a collaborative team for curriculum development using GroupChat:

+### Human in the Loop
+
+Human oversight is often essential for validating or guiding AI outputs.
+AG2 provides the `UserProxyAgent` for seamless integration of human feedback.
+
+Here we extend the **teacher–planner–reviewer** example by introducing a **human agent** who validates the final lesson:
 
 ```python
-from autogen import ConversableAgent, GroupChat, GroupChatManager, LLMConfig
-
-# Put your key in the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable
-llm_config = LLMConfig(api_type="openai", model="gpt-4o-mini")
-
-planner_message = """You are a classroom lesson agent.
-Given a topic, write a lesson plan for a fourth grade class.
-Use the following format:
-<title>Lesson plan title</title>
-<learning_objectives>Key learning objectives</learning_objectives>
-<script>How to introduce the topic to the kids</script>
-"""
-
-reviewer_message = """You are a classroom lesson reviewer.
-You compare the lesson plan to the fourth grade curriculum and provide a maximum of 3 recommended changes.
-Provide only one round of reviews to a lesson plan.
-"""
-
-# 1. Add a separate 'description' for our planner and reviewer agents
-planner_description = "Creates or revises lesson plans."
-
-reviewer_description = """Provides one round of reviews to a lesson plan
-for the lesson_planner to revise."""
-
-with llm_config:
-    lesson_planner = ConversableAgent(
-        name="planner_agent",
-        system_message=planner_message,
-        description=planner_description,
-    )
-
-    lesson_reviewer = ConversableAgent(
-        name="reviewer_agent",
-        system_message=reviewer_message,
-        description=reviewer_description,
-    )
-
-# 2. The teacher's system message can also be used as a description, so we don't define it
-teacher_message = """You are a classroom teacher.
-You decide topics for lessons and work with a lesson planner.
-and reviewer to create and finalise lesson plans.
-When you are happy with a lesson plan, output "DONE!".
-"""
-
-with llm_config:
-    teacher = ConversableAgent(
-        name="teacher_agent",
-        system_message=teacher_message,
-        # 3. Our teacher can end the conversation by saying DONE!
-        is_termination_msg=lambda x: "DONE!" in (x.get("content", "") or "").upper(),
-    )
-
-# 4. Create the GroupChat with agents and selection method
-groupchat = GroupChat(
-    agents=[teacher, lesson_planner, lesson_reviewer],
-    speaker_selection_method="auto",
-    messages=[],
+import logging

+
+logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+llm_config = LLMConfig.from_json(path="OAI_CONFIG_LIST")
+
+# Same agents as before, but now the human validator will pass to the planner who will check for "APPROVED" and terminate
+planner_message = "You are a classroom lesson planner. Given a topic, write a lesson plan for a fourth grade class."
+reviewer_message = "You are a classroom lesson reviewer. Compare the plan to the curriculum and suggest up to 3 improvements."
+teacher_message = "You are an experienced classroom teacher. You don't prepare plans, you provide simple guidance to the planner to prepare a lesson plan on the key topic."
+
+lesson_planner = ConversableAgent(
+    name="planner_agent",
+    system_message=planner_message,
+    description="Creates or revises lesson plans before having them reviewed.",
+    is_termination_msg=lambda x: "APPROVED" in (x.get("content", "") or "").upper(),
+    human_input_mode="NEVER",
+    llm_config=llm_config,
 )
 
-# 5. Our GroupChatManager will manage the conversation and uses an LLM to select the next agent
-manager = GroupChatManager(
-    name="group_manager",
-    groupchat=groupchat,
+lesson_reviewer = ConversableAgent(
+    name="reviewer_agent",
+    system_message=reviewer_message,
+    description="Provides one round of feedback to lesson plans back to the lesson planner before requiring the human validator.",
     llm_config=llm_config,
 )
 
-# 6. Initiate the chat with the GroupChatManager as the recipient
-teacher.initiate_chat(
-    recipient=manager,
-    message="Today, let's introduce our kids to the solar system."
+teacher = ConversableAgent(
+    name="teacher_agent",
+    system_message=teacher_message,
+    description="Provides guidance on the topic and content, if required.",
+    llm_config=llm_config,
+)
+
+human_validator = UserProxyAgent(
+    name="human_validator",
+    system_message="You are a human educator who provides final approval for lesson plans.",
+    description="Evaluates the proposed lesson plan and either approves it or requests revisions, before returning to the planner.",
 )
-```
 
-When executed, this code creates a collaborative system where the teacher initiates the conversation, and the lesson planner and reviewer agents work together to create and refine a lesson plan. The GroupChatManager orchestrates the conversation, selecting the next agent to respond based on the context of the discussion.
+auto_selection = AutoPattern(
+    agents=[teacher, lesson_planner, lesson_reviewer],
+    initial_agent=teacher,
+    user_agent=human_validator,
+    group_manager_args={"name": "group_manager", "llm_config": llm_config},
+)
 
-For workflows requiring more structured processes, explore the Group Chat pattern in the detailed [documentation](https://docs.ag2.ai/latest/docs/user-guide/advanced-concepts/orchestration/group-chat/introduction).
+response = run_group_chat(
+    pattern=auto_selection,
