MCP for Developers: Visual AI with MCP, Langflow & IBM Tools
Join us for a livestream on accelerating AI development using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Langflow, a visual orchestration tool built for developers.
When you're building agents with MCP, managing tools across different MCP servers, each with its own authentication, things can get messy fast. This session shows how combining Langflow with the new IBM MCP Composer helps streamline that sprawl into a lightweight, developer-friendly workflow.
We’ll walk through how to visually compose, test, and deploy MCP servers using Langflow, and how to integrate IBM’s AI tools via MCP without the friction of heavy infrastructure. You’ll get a first look at MCP Composer, a new open-source tool for building AI pipelines with reusable components and open standards.
During this session, you’ll learn:
- How to use Langflow to visually compose, test, and deploy MCP servers with minimal setup.
- Ways to integrate IBM-provided AI tools available via MCP into your workflows for enhanced functionality.
- How to secure your MCP flows using OAuth 2.0, API keys, and other developer-friendly authentication mechanisms.
- Why the open MCP stack is a game changer for developers looking to contribute to a scalable, interoperable AI ecosystem.
