Workshop: Building scalable, edge-native, production-grade MCP tools with RUST - Rajesh Sola, KPIT
Sunday June 14, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am IST
The emergence of the Model Context Protocol is transforming how AI agents interact with tools, data, and real-world systems. However, most early MCP implementations rely on high-level runtimes that are not well-suited for embedded and resource-constrained edge environments. This session explores how RUST enables a new class of high-performance, memory-safe MCP servers designed specifically for...

The Illusion of Idempotency: Why MCP Actions Aren’t as Safe as You Think - Prerit Munjal, Groupon
Sunday June 14, 2026 3:20pm - 3:45pm IST
We design MCPs assuming idempotency, apply the same action twice nothing changes, reconcile repeatedly, and state is declarative. But in reality, most MCP actions are only partially idempotent, because beneath the abstraction external systems mutate independently, side effects escape the control plane, ordering of operations matters, and “same input” doesn’t always mean “same result”....

Who's Calling? Bringing Identity To the MCP Host - Ayesha Dissanayaka, WSO2
Sunday June 14, 2026 3:20pm - 3:45pm IST
The MCP authorization spec gives us a clean OAuth 2.1 story between clients and servers. What it leaves out of scope is the host itself, the AI agent orchestrating the conversation. That's where enterprise deployments quietly break. An MCP host is not a passive pipe. It accepts requests from users, services, and peer agents, reasons with LLMs, and invokes tools across many servers. Every edge is...

Agentless Agents: Replacing Sidecar Observability With eBPF + MCP Tool Chains - Harini Anand, IBM

The dominant observability pattern for AI agents today is layered agents: sidecars, daemon sets, exporters. Each adds blast radius. This talk proposes flipping the model, using eBPF for zero-agent kernel telemetry, exposing it via MCP, and letting the LLM itself do the orchestration across tool calls. I'll demo a concrete multi-tool MCP interaction: an LLM receives "why is this service slow?",...

The Handoff Hallucination: Why Agents Skip Steps and How To Catch It - Ujjwal Kumar Singh, Skeps
Sunday June 14, 2026 4:10pm - 4:35pm IST
In multi-step agent workflows, correctness isn't just about what the system returns, it's about how it got there. An agent can claim "approval verified" without actually calling the approval service. The response looks valid, logs appear complete, and schema checks pass yet a critical step was skipped. This is process hallucination.

OAuth-based authentication is becoming the default foundation for MCP-enabled systems. However, while authentication is standardized, authorization across agent boundaries remains unresolved. In multi-agent MCP pipelines, orchestrators delegate tasks to sub-agents that act using the user’s authority.

Why Most MCP Tools Fail Silently, and How To Measure It - Om Shree, Shreesozo
Monday June 15, 2026 11:30am - 11:55am IST
Most MCP servers don't break because of bugs. They break because the tool descriptions are too vague for agents to reliably pick the right tool. Two research papers put numbers to this. A SAIL Research study of 856 tools across 103 MCP servers found 97% have at least one quality defect, 56% don't clearly state what the tool does, 89% give no guidance on when not to use it. A second study of 10,831...

Rethinking Testing for MCP Servers - Puja Jagani, BrowserStack
Monday June 15, 2026 11:55am - 12:20pm IST
MCP servers introduced a new kind of client: one driven by an LLM. Unlike traditional clients, this one is non-deterministic. It can call tools in unexpected sequences, with unpredictable inputs. We can’t reliably test how an LLM will call our tools. This makes the MCP server the only component under our control and the one that must be tested rigorously.

Everyone's heard the AAIF framing: MCP handles agent-to-tool, A2A handles agent-to-agent. Clean in theory. In practice, every multi-agent system lives at the boundary of both, and that boundary has no standard. Context gets dropped. Errors go silent. A state that survived an entire A2A task lifecycle vanishes the moment it crosses into an MCP tool call. Nobody is talking about this publicly. This...

MCP-Powered Ops: Red Hat Kubernetes MCP & Grafana MCP for Mission-Critical Applications - Rishi Nikhilesh Damerla & Sayantan Karmakar, Motorola Solutions
Monday June 15, 2026 6:25pm - 6:50pm IST
At Motorola Solutions, downtime isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a public safety risk where lives are at stake. This session explores how we revolutionized incident response for mission-critical applications by moving beyond fragmented tools and alert fatigue. Historically, siloed data across Kubernetes and Grafana led to 45-minute MTTRs and manual context-switching. We will detail our...

The 5 Wrong Reasons To Build an MCP Server (And What To Do Instead) - Daniel Oh, IBM
Monday June 15, 2026 6:25pm - 6:50pm IST
MCP brings structure and standardization to how LLMs interact with tools and resources—but that power comes with cost. We’ve built multiple MCP servers across different use cases, and not all of them should have existed. This session distills hard-earned lessons from real-world implementations: where MCP created long-term leverage, where it introduced unnecessary complexity, and where a direct...

Who Do You Trust? Securing Multi-Agent MCP Systems in Healthcare - Yuvraj Pradhan, MIT ADT University & Archana Kumari, MIT ADT University
Monday June 15, 2026 6:25pm - 6:50pm IST
An LLM caught my friend’s condition that doctors took two months to confirm. We asked: what happens when multiple specialised models review the same case together? We built ConsensusMed on MCP. Each specialist model for a medical domain runs as an independent MCP server, and an orchestrator coordinates their outputs and decides what to trust when models disagree. Multi-agent clinical systems...
