Cameron McEwing: Building Interactive Agentic Systems

Join our monthly meetup about all things Python at Trade Me's office at 181 High Street. Doors open at 5:30pm, with the talk starting at 6:30pm. Trade Me is generously providing food and drinks.

See the photo below for how to find the venue. Look for a glass door with a sign mentioning the meetup and head upstairs to the Trade Me office. Call the phone number on the sign if you arrive late and the door is closed.

The meetup will also be accessible virtually. Point your web browser at https://bbb2.nzoss.nz/b/men-pg1-cot-ai2 to access the session using Big Blue Button.

This talk will show how to build interactive agentic systems using Python and three powerful tools: (1) Google's Agent-to-Agent protocol for communication between AI agents, (2) Anthropic's Model Context Protocol for connecting agents to external tools and data, and (3) Gradio for quickly prototyping interactive web frontends for agentic workflows.

Don't hesitate to pass this information around to whomever you think may be interested to hear and discuss all things Python.
