Scriptable Agents - From Dev to Production, Itay Shakury
AI Agents are already changing personal computing and productivity work, but they’re also increasingly used as building blocks within business automations, CI workflows and scripts. This use case brings new challenges - how to configure an agent for unattended work, how to package it into deployable artifacts, and how to operate it in production. In this talk we will explore the concept of agents as containers. We will discuss the motivation, the challenges and tooling available in order to use agents in the real world.
6:20 PM
Eliminating Hidden Argo CD Pitfalls in Your GitOps Workflow, Regina Voloshin
Argo CD maintainer at Octopus Deploy in-person As teams rapidly adopt Argo CD and embrace GitOps-based delivery, they often get off to a strong start—but gradually accumulate structural and architectural issues. While these problems may appear harmless initially, they can slowly degrade developer productivity, reduce system clarity and ultimately weaken the core advantages of GitOps. This session highlights some of the common anti-patterns, such as:
Dynamically creating Argo CD Applications Defining
Applications instead of leveraging ApplicationSets Using Helm to package Applications rather than ApplicationSets
Embedding hardcoded Helm values directly within Argo CD Applications
And more.
6:40 PM
Kubescape MCP - Solving Vulnerabilities and Misconfigurations, Ben Hirschberg - CTO & Co-Founder, ARMO
