About this event
Join us at Latitude AI for this **Agentic AI Foundation Community Pittsburgh event** To join, please be sure to register at https://luma.com/eob7xzdb 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. Hosted by Latitude AI · Led by AAIF Ambassador Jon Zeolla
