As AI agents move from local tests to real-world use, developers face a big problem: How do we easily find, direct, secure, and track AI traffic going to MCP servers? Standard API gateways do not understand LLM tool calls, and writing static lists of agents is too hard to manage.
In this hands-on workshop, we will connect AI agents and external tools easily using the standalone versions of Solo.io’s agentgateway and AgentRegistry. We will show you how to build a strong control layer for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) using simple local tools like Docker.
Participants will learn how to:
- Discover: Run AgentRegistry locally to list, version, and find MCP servers dynamically.
- Control: Set up agentgateway as a smart proxy to catch and manage agent requests.
- Secure: Add AI-specific rules, like rate limits and basic access control, to agent tool calls.
- Observe: See exactly which tools the agents are using and how fast they respond.
Join us to learn how to build a safe, easy-to-run foundation for your multi-agent systems right on your laptop!
