Scaling Agents on Kubernetes with acpx and ACP — Onur Solmaz, OpenClaw

Scaling Agents on Kubernetes with acpx and ACP — Onur Solmaz, OpenClaw

Onur Solmaz from OpenClaw discusses the challenge of managing 300-500 daily, often AI-generated, pull requests. He introduces ACPX, a headless CLI for the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), designed to automate PR triage through a node-based workflow. The talk culminates in a vision for on-demand, disposable agent pods on Kubernetes, managed by a Go operator that provisions and tears down full compute environments per task, wiring them into chat platforms like Slack.

In a reflective and forward-looking conversation, Daniel Terhorst-North and Kevlin Henney explore the evolution of software development over the past 20 years and predict the key challenges and innovations for the next 20. They delve into the philosophy of programming language design, the critical need for hardware-sympathetic programming, the untapped potential of concurrency models like CSP and the Actor Model, and the future of user interfaces and decentralized technology.

The Hidden Bottlenecks Slowing Down AI Agents

The Hidden Bottlenecks Slowing Down AI Agents

Paul van der Boor and Bruce Martens from Prosus discuss the real bottlenecks in AI agent development, arguing that the primary challenges are not tools, but rather evaluation, data quality, and feedback loops. They detail their 'buy-first' philosophy, the practical reasons they often build in-house, and how new coding agents like Devon and Cursor are changing their development workflows.
