Model Context Protocol (MCP) Deep Dive
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is emerging as a standard way for AI models to securely interact with external tools and systems. This session provides a practical deep dive into MCP architecture, core concepts, and real-world integration patterns. We will explore how MCP enables structured tool calling, improves interoperability, and simplifies AI integration in existing applications. The talk will include examples of connecting AI models with APIs, databases, and enterprise systems, with a focus on how developers can adopt MCP in Java-based environments.
**Note**: Due to unexpected family medical needs, our speaker is unable to travel to St. Louis. Instead, he will give his presentation virtually on Google Meet Thursday June 11 at our usual time. You can watch his presentation online starting at 6:30pm, or come to the OCI training room. If you come to the training room, you can join us for food and social at 6:00pm, and watch the presentation with us on the large screen at 6:30pm. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, weโll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. Weโll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. Weโll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the worldโs largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping whatโs possible. Since then, weโve built a suite of AIโdriven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomesโaccelerating benefits decisions for our Nationโs Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcomeโdriven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Columbus Code & Coffee 87 @ Improving
Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!
**What to Expect at the Intro Circle**
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup:
* Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics
Round 1 - (7 secs max):
* Your name
* What you're working on
* What you can help others with
Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
