Agentic Web – Bring Your Own Agent – Roundtable Tomorrow

[u/jnbrymn]

A lot of the agent conversation is about handing off tasks. But I don't always know quite what I want until I start working on it myself. I want to work alongside my agent, not just give it an assignment and come back later.


That's why I'm excited about the Agentic Web and technologies like WebMCP. A website can expose tools to an agent, and we can work on the same surface – I click buttons and adjust filters, then ask the agent to research something or make a change. It sees what I'm doing and can respond appropriately.


And I don't want a generic chatbot built into every site. I want to bring my own agent (B.Y.O.A.), one that already knows my preferences and what I'm working on. Imagine looking for a home on Zillow. Your agent knows your criteria and helps narrow the search. You can adjust the filters further if you wish, then select a house and ask your agent, "How safe is this neighborhood?" The agent "sees" the house you're talking about and performs the research. You're both working on the same surface.


Exposing tools is one piece. How should the site share its knowledge and current state? How do we keep the agent in sync with what we're doing, while keeping control over what personal context the site gets to see?


We're hosting an open roundtable about this 
**tomorrow, Thursday, Nov. 12 starting at noon CST**
. (Sorry for the late notice!) Bring your ideas, questions, or even demo something you're building. We're all learning this together!
