+# Persisted Conversations with AI Agents
+
+This sample demonstrates how to serialize and persist agent conversation threads to storage, allowing conversations to be resumed later.
+
+## What this sample demonstrates
+
+- Serializing agent threads to JSON
+- Persisting thread state to disk
+- Loading and deserializing thread state from storage
+- Resuming conversations with persisted threads
+- Managing agent lifecycle (creation and deletion)
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites:
+
+- .NET 10 SDK or later
+- Azure Foundry service endpoint and deployment configured
+- Azure CLI installed and authenticated (for Azure credential authentication)
+
+**Note**: This demo uses Azure CLI credentials for authentication. Make sure you're logged in with `az login` and have access to the Azure Foundry resource. For more information, see the [Azure CLI documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/cli/azure/authenticate-azure-cli-interactively).
+
+Set the following environment variables:
+
+```powershell
+$env:AZURE_FOUNDRY_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="https://your-foundry-service.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/your-foundry-project" # Replace with your Azure Foundry resource endpoint
+$env:AZURE_FOUNDRY_PROJECT_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o-mini"  # Optional, defaults to gpt-4o-mini
+```
+
+## Run the sample
+
+Navigate to the FoundryAgents sample directory and run:
+
+```powershell
+cd dotnet/samples/GettingStarted/FoundryAgents
+dotnet run --project .\FoundryAgents_Step06_PersistedConversations
+```
+
+## Expected behavior
+
+The sample will:
+
+1. Create an agent named "JokerAgent" with instructions to tell jokes
+2. Create a thread and run the agent with an initial prompt
+3. Serialize the thread state to JSON
+4. Save the serialized thread to a temporary file
+5. Load the thread from the file and deserialize it
+6. Resume the conversation with the same thread using a follow-up prompt
+7. Clean up resources by deleting the agent
+
