Hardening AI Coding Agents with Hooks: Enforcing Least Privilege on Autonomous Developers

Abstract Teams are putting AI coding agents into production workflows faster than they are putting controls around them. An agent that writes code also runs shell commands, reads secrets, installs packages, and pushes to git, at machine speed. This talk is about the control layer that has held up in production: event-driven hooks that intercept every tool call and allow, deny, or escalate it befo… more

Six Agents, One Reality Check: What Actually Made Our Production Agent Reliable

Abstract We often treat multi-agent architecture as the solution to complex AI workflows. In production, the harder work is building the harness around the model: clear agent boundaries, useful retrieval, safe tool access, human-review points, and evaluation that measures real outcomes. In this talk, I will share lessons from a six-agent LangGraph workflow for prospect research and outbound opera… more

When Good Agents Disagreed Until We Built Shared Understanding

Abstract Multi-agent systems are often built around orchestration: an orchestrator routes requests to specialist agents, coordinates their work, and brings their outputs together. But in production, we encountered a more fundamental problem: every agent could be doing its job correctly, while the system as a whole was still wrong. more

Understanding Your Agents From Traces to Trust

Abstract While building and operating LLM-powered systems in production, one lesson keeps repeating itself which is that the hardest failures are often invisible. Unlike traditional software, agentic systems can fail in countless ways while every dashboard remains green. An agent may misunderstand user intent, choose the wrong tool, retrieve stale information, drift from its objective, or silentl… more

Your Agent Can Run as Long as You Can Check It

Coding agents can now work for hours without help, but in most other kinds of work an agent still needs a person to step in every so often. It’s the same models in both cases, so the model isn’t what decides how long an agent can run. The checks around it are. Every step an agent takes builds on its last output, and small mistakes pile up unless something outside the agent catches them. The agent… more

Agents with no internet: building a document intelligence platform for an air-gapped defence setting

About the session Most agent stacks quietly assume the internet: hosted models, cloud vector stores, external tools and telemetry. For a defence organisation (anonymised), none of that was allowed. The system had to run fully air-gapped, with AI agents on a single machine, an Indian-origin language model hosted on-premise, and no data leaving the room. The job was to help engineers review large v… more
