Okay, this video on Langchain’s new Agent UI and CopilotKit looks amazing for where we’re trying to go with AI-powered development! Basically, it shows how to use Langchain and CopilotKit to build complex, multi-agent systems with memory, tool integration (think code interpreters, search, etc.), and even multi-command protocols (MCPs) – and it’s all open source! This means we can finally build truly collaborative AI agents that work together to solve problems, without being locked into proprietary platforms.
What’s super valuable for us is the focus on MCPs. We’ve been wrestling with how to orchestrate multiple AI agents for complex tasks, and this seems like a structured way to define how agents communicate and delegate tasks. Imagine an agent that can analyze code, then delegate bug fixing to another agent with access to a file system – that’s the kind of workflow we want to automate. Plus, the new Langchain Agent UI makes debugging and visualizing these complex interactions way easier, which is a huge win in terms of time saved.
This could directly translate into automating tasks like code reviews, documentation generation, or even complex deployment pipelines. The idea of having a marketplace of pre-built MCPs (like Composio) is especially intriguing, because it means we could potentially reuse and combine existing AI workflows to accelerate development. I’m definitely going to dive into the open-multi-agent-canvas demo; the chance to visually map out these agent interactions and understand the flow is well worth the time. It’s time to get my hands dirty and start playing with this!
