Ready to bring intelligent agents to life? In this session, we’ll walk through how to build, test, and deploy dynamic AI agents using the power of VS Code. You’ll learn how to refine prompts, evaluate model behavior, connect to live data using MCP servers, and seamlessly deploy your agent—all without leaving your development environment.

We’ll showcase how tools like the AI Toolkit, Azure MCP Server, Azure AI Foundry, Azure Developer CLI (azd), and GitHub Copilot for Azure come together to accelerate your workflow. These AI-powered tools enable prompt-driven development, streamline iteration, and help you go from prototype to production faster than ever. Whether you're building your first agent or scaling up, this session will equip you with the skills and tools to do it smarter.
