AI agents are systems that go beyond one-shot responses — they reason, act, and interact autonomously to solve tasks. Unlike a single LLM prompt, agents can call tools, retain memory, collaborate with other agents, and make decisions based on dynamic context. As the AI landscape shifts from static models to active reasoning systems, agentic AI is becoming the foundation for next-generation applications in productivity, research, coding, finance, and more.

Join us for a special Mini DevFest as we explore this frontier of AI with three talks that combine practical implementation with broader architectural insights.

From Prompts to Swarms — The Technical Anatomy of Agents (Andreas Erben)

Take a tour through the evolution of AI agents — from single prompts to complex multi-agent systems. This talk unpacks the architecture and mechanics that power today’s intelligent agents.

Building MCP Agents in Node.js (David Fekke)

MCP (Model Context Protocol) agents are programs that interact with LLMs using tool-calling to provide external context. Learn how to build a simple MCP agent in Node.js and integrate it into apps like Claude, Windsurf, Cursor, and VS Code.

Financial Reasoning with LangGraph (Eyal Wirsansky)

Explore a complete walkthrough of a financial agent that can handle financial queries, fetch real-time stock data, research through the internet, and provide comprehensive financial reports, implemented using LangGraph.
