Agentenentwicklung ist wie Kindererziehung & Give Your AI Superpowers
Agentenentwicklung ist wie Kindererziehung & Give Your AI Superpowers
**Um was geht es dieses mal?** Dieses Mal haben wir zwei Talks für euch! **Agentenentwicklung ist wie Kindererziehung, nur mit mehr Logs - Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen bei vaylens - Dennis Lüger (vaylens)** "Was hat die Entwicklung eines KI-Agents mit Kindererziehung zu tun? Mehr als du denkst. In diesem Vortrag zeigt vaylens, wie wir den Service in der eMobility-Branche mit einem intelligenten Agenten neu denken – und warum der klassische Design → Develop-Prozess hier völlig an seine Grenzen stößt. Wir sprechen über die echten Herausforderungen: den Aufbau einer funktionierenden Wissensbasis, die Tücken von RAG, das Testen eines Systems, das sich ständig weiterentwickelt, und den Alltag mit einem Produkt, das selbst noch „in den Kinderschuhen“ steckt. Natürlich teilen wir auch unsere Erfolge, die wachsenden Fähigkeiten unseres Agents und geben einen Ausblick darauf, welche nächsten Schritte anstehen, um den Service der Zukunft zu gestalten." **Give Your AI Superpowers: Warum alles mit dem Model Context Protocol beginnt. - Benjamin Font Pera (codecentric)** "Moderne Sprachmodelle erreichen heute eine beeindruckende Leistungsfähigkeit, bleiben jedoch häufig in isolierten Umgebungen gefangen: Ohne eine einheitliche Schnittstelle können sie nur schwer auf externe Systeme, Datenquellen oder Werkzeuge zugreifen. Genau hier setzt das Model Context Protocol (MCP) an. MCP schafft eine standardisierte Integrationsschicht, über die LLMs transparent, strukturiert und kontrollierbar mit ihrer Umgebung interagieren können. In diesem Talk zeige ich, wie MCP die Grundlage für praktische, handlungsfähige KI-Agenten schafft Im Coding-Bereich demonstriere ich, wie ein Coding-Agent über MCP nicht nur mit Ticketsystemen arbeiten kann, sondern durch den Figma-MCP-Server sogar „sehen” lernt. Im n8n-Ökosystem wird sichtbar, wie MCP echte Agenten-Workflows ermöglicht. Am Beispiel des „Kai Vertriebsassistenten” zeige ich, wie ein LLM über MCP mit n8n Agenten kommuniziert, fehlende Informationen aktiv abfragt, Daten aus HubSpot oder Jira abrufen kann und komplexe Aufgaben wie das Erstellen von Versicherungsangeboten vollständig automatisiert. Der Vortrag verbindet konzeptionelle Grundlagen mit praktischen Demonstrationen und zeigt, wie MCP KI-Modelle aus ihrer Isolation löst und in vollständig integrierte, handlungsfähige Agenten verwandelt." **Hybrides Setup!** Wir freuen uns, euch bei uns in den Räumen der codecentric AG in Dortmund willkommen zu heißen. Vor Ort versorgen wir euch mit Snacks und Getränken und freuen uns gleichzeitig über interessante Diskussionen und einen guten Austausch. Für alle, die es nicht zu uns ins Office schaffen, werden wir das Meetup Hybrid durchführen. Der Stream beginnt ca. 10 Minuten später, damit wir vor Ort ausreichend Möglichkeit für persönliches Kennenlernen haben. Den Live-Stream findet ihr auf dem [YouTube-Channel der codecentric AG](youtube.com/@codecentricag). **Anreise:** Per Zug: Vom Dortmunder HBF sind es ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß. Mit dem Auto: Rund um das Office gibt es einige Parkflächen, dazu befinden sich in dem Parkhaus der Thier-Galerie weitere Parkplätze.
MCP Intent to Streaming, Kroxylicious Kafka Proxy and EDA Dream vs Reality
MCP Intent to Streaming, Kroxylicious Kafka Proxy and EDA Dream vs Reality
Hi all, We are excited to bring the Kafka community together once again for a new Kafka meetup. On January 20th, 2026, we will host an in - person evening featuring three strong perspectives on Kafka: MCP in practice - from intent to streaming; Kafka-native Kroxylicious proxies; and the organizational realities of Event-Driven Architecture. **The Speakers:** We are very excited to welcome **Anatoly Zelenin** (Founder @ DataFlow Academy, Kafka book author) introducing Kroxylicious, an emerging open-source early stage Kafka proxy. We are also proud to feature our own **Abhinav Sonkar** (Software Engineer @Axual.com), who will present a hands-on talk on MCP and Kafka in practice. Finally, **Eti (Dahan) Noked** (Head of Engineering @ PX.com) will close the evening with an honest look at Event-Driven Architecture: the dream, the reality, and the organizational cost. **Agenda:** **Doors open: 17:30** **17:30 - 18:30: Networking, food & drinks** **18:30 – 19:00: “From Intent to Streaming Apps: MCP in Practice with Kafka”** by Abhinav Sonkar (Software Engineer @ Axual) **19:05 – 19:50:** **“Kroxylicious, the snappy open-source proxy for Apache Kafka”** by Anatoly Zelenin (Founder @ DataFlow Academy, Kafka book author) **20:00 – 20:30:** **“Kafka & Event-Driven Architecture: The Dream, the Reality, and the Organizational Cost”** by Eti (Dahan) Noked (Head of Engineering @ PX.com) **20:30 - 21:15**: **Drinks & Kafka chit-chat** **Abstracts:** **From Intent to Streaming Apps: MCP in Practice with Kafka** As AI assistants begin interacting with real infrastructure, a key challenge is ensuring those interactions are safe, reliable, and constrained by clear rules. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) addresses this by defining a structured way for AI systems to discover capabilities, understand context, and invoke external tools through explicit contracts. This talk presents MCP through a practical Kafka-focused case study. Using the Axual MCP server, Abhinav will demonstrate how high-level intent expressed in natural language can be translated into governed Kafka operations such as topic management, access control, and application deployment. The session will also show how MCP can be combined with declarative technologies like KSML, a YAML-based DSL for Kafka Streams, to generate and deploy streaming applications without writing Java code. **Kroxylicious, the snappy open-source proxy for Apache Kafka** Proxies are a powerful architectural pattern commonly used in other application-layer protocols like HTTP, but they remain underutilized in the Kafka ecosystem. Kroxylicious is a groundbreaking, early-stage project that aims to change this by making it easier to develop Kafka proxies with minimal effort. While some organizations have built their own Kafka-aware proxies to address specific challenges, these solutions often remain closed-source and highly specialized. Kroxylicious tackles this problem by offering a set of pre-built capabilities and common features out-of-the-box, enabling developers to concentrate on the custom logic their applications need. In this session, Anatoly will introduce Kroxylicious, highlight its potential use cases, and demonstrate how it can simplify Kafka proxy development, reduce complexity, and unlock new possibilities for real-time data processing. **Kafka & Event-Driven Architecture: The Dream, the Reality, and the Organizational Cost** The goal of this talk is to show how to use Kafka effectively to achieve Event-Driven Architecture, and what this means for an organization. Eti will cover when an organization is ready for EDA, when Kafka is the right choice, and when it might not be. The talk completes the picture by exploring what can go wrong, how to avoid common pitfalls, and how architectural decisions around Kafka and EDA affect organizational structure, team ownership, and long-term sustainability. **Location:** Axual HQ Jaarbeursplein 22, Utrecht Please RSVP so we can arrange enough food & drinks. We are looking forward to welcoming you again on **January 20th, 2026**. **Team Kafka Meetup Utrecht**

Offroad ride #1 2026, easy offroad, beginner friendly!
Offroad ride #1 2026, easy offroad, beginner friendly!
Offroading ride in Diermen, Meerveld, Lunteren. Our usual easy "get back into riding" route. Meeting at 10am, will ride +-120km of a mixed road and offroad. Should be a 40/60 mix, the route (as usual...) may be a bit outdated and sections may need to be circumvented. The route is relatively easy and flat with moderate hardpacked sand stretches (unless rainy, then expect mud ;) ). Will ride unless there are thunderstorms, so if it's just rain, bring your rain gear... Also bring snacks. We will stop for food if there's a nice place to do so. All skill level riders welcome to join. Our experienced riders have patience to teach and help you get accustomed to adventure riding if you are new to it. ADV tires are required (knobbies, preferably at least 40/60). See you then! 0623215213 PM me for the route gpx.

Software ate the world, Agents are eating Software Engineering
Software ate the world, Agents are eating Software Engineering
2026 may be the last year many developers write code by hand. We need coding agents to solve complex problems in production codebases, but vibe coding alone won’t get us there. Vibe coding is all gas, no brakes. It burns up the context window until the agent slips on its own slop. You can go fast at first, but the more you stuff into the context window, the more tangled its outputs get. While the industry is rapidly increasing code generation speed, we still have to understand, review, merge, and maintain what gets shipped. This talk featuring Michael Geiger will outline how coding agents (Claude Code + Gas Town) work and a framework for orchestrating them to solve complicated problems in complex codebases. It’s about steering the model: doing the research to align intent, planning the approach up front, implementing in parallel steps, and breaking early. Human judgment still matters, but it should be spent on high-leverage decisions: what to build, what to forbid, and “what is quality?”, not cleaning up slop. Attendees will leave with a checklist to identify workflow and environment gaps that hold agents back, so you and your team can ship higher-quality software starting tomorrow.
