Building Modern AI Agents
Join us at Latitude AI for this Agentic AI Foundation Community Pittsburgh event
The recent July 28 MCP release, sometimes referred to as “MCP 2.0," changed a lot about how MCP works. We’ll use that as a jumping-off point to explore what modern agent development looks like today.
We’ll cover and get hands-on with topics across the open agent stack, including:
A review of July 28th MCP spec updates
A hands-on lab, building an MCP server and connecting to it using goose, and an optional intermediate/advanced lab adding agentgateway between the agent and MCP server for observability, routing, and control
This is a workshop, not an intro to AI agents. You should be comfortable with code, git, APIs, and the terminal. We’ll start together, build together, and then have room to go deeper based on experience and interest.
Bring your laptop. You can work locally or use a browser-based Linux lab environment provided for the event.
