Harness Engineering in Practice: From Requirements to Implementation
AI assistants are getting more capable. The question is how we build effective workflows around them.
At DevDay London, [Lucy Joyce](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-joyce-597485166/), [Ash Shakrani](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ash-shakrani/) and [Arun Kurian](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arun-mathew-kurian-39b8aa5a/) will explore harness engineering through the lens of a payment integration.
From requirements and design through to implementation, they’ll demonstrate why context alone isn’t enough for successful AI-assisted development. Drawing on real-world experience, they’ll show how engineering harnesses, reusable context, standards, and validation workflows help teams move beyond experimentation and build reliable, scalable AI-assisted development practices.
**This session will unpack:**
🎯 Why “more context” isn’t the answer on its own
🎯 What engineering harnesses are and how they create reliable feedback loops
🎯 How standards, workflows, and validation reduce AI-generated rework and technical debt
🎯 Practical techniques teams can adopt immediately to improve AI outcomes
🗓️ **Save the Date:** 25th June, 2026
📍 **Location:** Sahaj Software, 1 Quality Court, London, WC2A 1HR
🕕 **Time:** 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM (BST)
The evening will feature:
🎤 **One engaging talk** with Q&A
🤝 **Plenty of time for networking** over free pizza and non-alcoholic drinks
Don’t miss this chance to learn, connect, and share with fellow tech enthusiasts.

AI Exchange June Ft. Wayve, Cato Networks & Coralogix
Join us on Thursday 25th June for our next AI Exchange event, hosted by Coralogix at their London HQ in Devonshire Square.
Pioneers of autonomous driving, **[Wayve](https://wayve.ai/),** are exploring how Agentic AI can be integrated into software development in a measurable and trustworthy way. **[Cato Networks](https://www.catonetworks.com/)** are applying AI to one of cybersecurity's most overlooked problems: the hidden risks buried within complex security policies. Finally our hosts **[Coralogix](https://coralogix.com/)** are addressing a challenge many engineering teams are beginning to face: AI coding agents are becoming part of everyday development, but very few organisations have visibility into how they're actually performing.
As always, doors open at 6:30pm and talks start at 7pm sharp. We have another tight capacity for this event, so please RSVP as soon as you can to secure your space.
**Agenda:**
**[Lewis Isaac](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lewisjamesisaac/) @ [Coralogix](https://coralogix.com/)**
**Who’s Watching the Agents? Observability for AI-Assisted Development**
Code agents are already in your engineering workflow. The problem is that most organisations still have no visibility into what those agents are actually doing.
How many tokens are they consuming? How long are tasks taking? Are they introducing regressions? Are they measurably improving delivery, or just creating the feeling of progress? The gap between “we have AI tooling” and “we understand our AI tooling” is where most teams are stuck right now.
In this talk, I will show you how OpenTelemetry can be used to instrument code agent workflows end-to-end, and how Coralogix Code Agents Observability brings all of those signals -token usage, cost, task duration, and code quality impact - into a single view.
*Bio: Our speaker will be Lewis Isaac, Dev Relations @Coralogix bio Lewis is a Developer Advocate at Coralogix, where he works closely with developers to explore smarter approaches to observability and how deep technical telemetry can be connected to meaningful business and user outcomes. Prior to joining Coralogix, he was a Tech Lead at IBM, where he led the technical delivery of mobile application projects for clients including BP and a major UK bank.*
**[Dave Kirk](https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-kirk-jr/) @ [Wayve](https://wayve.ai/)**
**Agentic Code Review @ Wayve**
At Wayve, we have been pursuing an approach to Agentic workflows that prioritises observability and evaluation of quality of work. Our Agentic Code Review pipeline has been at the forefront of this initiative. In this talk, we'll discuss some of the approaches and lessons learned over the past four months of operating this pipeline
*Bio: Dave Kirk has been programming for over 20 years, and doing so professionally for a decade. His career has primarily been focused on cloud infrastructure and development workflows. He is now the lead engineer in Wayve's effort to adopt agentic AI as an impactful part of our SDLC and beyond.*
**[Avidan Avraham](https://www.linkedin.com/in/avidan-avraham-04416498/) @ [Cato Networks](https://www.catonetworks.com/)**
**Autonomous Policies Using LLMs to Sweep Up Misconfigs**
Security policies and engines today are complex ecosystems - not just defined by rigid, structured configurations but also by many layers of free-text and meta-data that tell the real story behind a rule or a configuration. Traditional configuration analysis can flag obvious issues, yet it often overlooks the contextual “crumbs” left behind by temporary fixes, ad-hoc tweaks, or legacy testing exercises. These remnants, much like orphaned data in a software system, can create unexpected vulnerabilities that attackers are eager to exploit.
In this talk, I introduce a pioneering AI-driven strategy inspired by the concept of a software Garbage Collector. Just as a Garbage Collector continuously cleans up memory leaks, our AI agent proactively sifts through the meta-configuration, analyzing unstructured fields—free-text names, descriptions, annotations, and even multilingual notes—to identify contextual misconfigurations before they evolve into high-risk liabilities.
Advanced NLP is key: semantic analysis decodes the intent behind free-text entries, while contextual classification organizes policy components by interpreting diverse cues. This integrated approach detects anomalies that traditional tools may miss, shifting policy management from static settings to dynamic, context-rich narratives that reveal hidden security gaps.
We hope to see you there for another great AI filled evening!

We are focused on referral relationships. Walk in with a clear idea of who refers people like you. Walk out having met a few owners whose work fits next to yours.

Doors open at 6 PM. You get real conversation with other local owners, time to actually connect, and a short marketing lesson woven in. The room is reserved through 7:30 PM.
**Who this is for**
Any local business owner who wants to grow through relationships, not just paid ads. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
We’ll cover:
* What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

**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, we’ll 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. We’ll 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. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
