**Speakers:** Paulo Martins (GitLab) – **We Tried to Detect Indirect Prompt Injection in Coding Agents. Here’s What Broke** Gianlorenzo Occhipinti (Exa) – **Beyond the Knowledge Cutoff: Agentic Search in Practice** Marius Colacioiu (Norm) - **Your Repo Is the Memory: Durable Context for AI Coding Agents** **Agenda:** 17:30-17:40 – Welcome & intro 17:40 – 18:10: Paulo Martins 18:15 – 18:45: Gianlorenzo Occhipinti 18:45 – 19:15: Marius Colacioiu **Abstract**: **We Tried to Detect Indirect Prompt Injection in Coding Agents. Here’s What Broke** As a community, we are delegating a significant part of our development workflow to agents, and as the use cases grow, the risk of prompt injection keeps increasing - to the point that it made it to the top of the OWASP LLM Top 10. In this talk, I’ll explore the concept of “detect and prevent prompt injection” and why it is particularly hard to do for coding agents. \-\-\- **Beyond the Knowledge Cutoff: Agentic Search in Practice** An LLM is a lossy compression of the internet: the long tail gets blurred, concepts interfere, and anything after the training cutoff simply doesn't exist. The fix isn't a bigger model, it's giving agents the ability to search. This talk walks through the shift from classic retrieve-then-read RAG to agentic search, where the search engine becomes part of the agent's environment and the model learns what, when, and how to query: decomposing questions, parallelizing searches, and chaining multi-hop lookups \-\-\- **Your Repo Is the Memory: Durable Context for AI Coding Agents** AI coding agents are becoming useful fast, but they still do not know the local truth of your codebase. This talk shows how to make repo-local context durable so agents produce work that fits the project and humans can still understand, review, and maintain what gets merged.

Highlights and Hidden Gems in SQL Server 2025 With so much emphasis on cloud data platforms and AI these days, SQL people can feel left behind by all the marketing hype. SQL Server 2025 was officially released in November of 2025, though, and contains a ton of improvements that will make our SQL Server deployments a bit faster, better, and more secure. There are even more improvements tucked into the release that never made a marketing blog or press release that you'll likely be learning about for the first time in this session! Join this session to learn about what makes your high availability a little more available, your performance a bit more performant, and your database more developer and app-friendly. Come spend an hour with SQL people talking SQL Server 2025 – the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.
