MCP Dev Summit Bengaluru 2026

Local MCP prototyping is magic on a laptop, but scaling to production often triggers "Agentic Sprawl." To handle complex agent loops at scale, enterprises need a centralized architecture for integration, identity, and governance. This keynote explores Google Cloud’s full-stack vision for internet-scale agents. We will unpack the shift toward stateless MCP transports to solve multi-round-trip routing bottlenecks, show how Apigee converts legacy APIs into zero-code MCP skills, and highlight how developer tools like Antigravity and the Agent Development Kit (ADK) push the boundaries of AI from the cloud to the device.

Goose is an open-source AI agent that can be extended through integrations, tools, and community-driven projects. In this talk, I'll share my journey working with Goose, explore how its capabilities can be extended through community-driven projects, highlight examples from the Goose ecosystem, and discuss the development of GooseBot as one approach to bringing AI agents closer to developer communities. Along the way, I'll cover lessons learned from building in the open and why extensibility is key to the future of open-source AI agents.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is now an LF project, and that's fantastic news for the open source ecosystem. Last year MCP servers went mainstream fast, linking up AI models with apps, data and systems. Whether you are managing it or not, hundreds of people are already using MCPs within your company. Unfortunately, many IT teams are discovering this adoption, not planning it.

This talk provides a quick intro to the MCP ecosystem, and presents a four-stage maturity model for MCP adoption, from tracking shadow MCP development to secure, enterprise-wide deployment. You'll learn where your organization actually is (most are Stage 1 or early Stage 2), what infrastructure you need for each stage, and how to build the process and policies to turn MCP from a risk into an enabling technology.

This model is based on patterns from real deployments and hundreds of engagements with engineers dealing with this right now. I'll touch on MCP development, security, management, operations and how to get these incredibly useful tools into the hands of more and more users within your company.
