Agenda

Registration
Opening
Accelerating the Autonomous Web with WebMCP by Vin Lim	AI agents have long been capable of interacting with the web, relying on brittle DOM scrapers and heavy browser automation has kept these workflows slow and prone to failure. We will explore how the WebMCP shifts agentic web interaction from merely functional to highly performant and efficient by providing a standardized, machine-readable layer for context sharing and action execution. WebMCP eliminates the friction and overhead of legacy automation techniques.
[Hands-on Lab] How to Evaluate, Observe & Implement Guardrails for AI Agents with ADK by Kuan Hoong Poo	A demo agent becomes a production agent when it's measurable, observable, and safe. In this codelab you'll add all three to an agent using ADK's own mechanisms — callbacks and the built-in trace view — with no third-party observability vendor required.
Teabreak	Light Refreshments are provided.
[Talk/Demo] Image Detection and Manipulation with Gemini by Shang Yi Lim	A colab session on image detection and manipulation using Google's Gemini models. This session will cover practical applications and techniques for developers to leverage Gemini for image-related tasks.
