Ready to go beyond theory and start building AI Agents powered by Graph APIs delivered via the Model Context Protocol? Join us for a hands-on session where we’ll dive into Apollo MCP Server, show you how to expose your GraphQL APIs to AI agents, and walk through live examples you can try yourself—right from Apollo Sandbox.

Whether you’re experimenting with LLMs, building agent interfaces, or just curious about how AI and GraphQL fit together, this meetup will give you practical tools and a working mental model to get started.

What we’ll do together:

  • Get a quick refresher on what MCP is and how Apollo MCP Server works
  • Walk through a real use case: exposing graph operations as tools
  • Live code a schema slice, run it in Apollo Sandbox, and invoke it with an AI
  • Explore best practices for designing agent-ready schemas (naming, latency, tool shape)
  • Q&A and community examples

No install required. Just bring your browser and your curiosity—this one’s built for participation.
