Talk "Forkable Sandboxes for Long-Running Agents"
🎤 Muhammad Annas Hashmi, DevRel at Daytona
Outline:
Agents are starting to do real software work: installing dependencies, editing files, running tests, starting servers, and debugging over long sessions. But most AI systems still treat each run like a disposable prompt-response loop. That breaks down once the useful state lives not just in tokens, but in the actual machine.
This talk is about the runtime layer agents need to become reliable builders. I’ll show how forkable Daytona sandboxes let you pause at important moments in an agent run, branch the environment, and sample multiple continuations from the same machine state. For builders, this turns long-running agent workflows into something you can inspect, compare, recover, and eventually optimize.

Talk "Good evals are boring"
🎤 Lotte Verheyden, Developer Relations Engineer at Langfuse
Outline:
Long-running agents fail in ways that are hard to spot, and with traces alone this becomes tedious to monitor. This talk covers how to turn traces into evals that serve you in improving your agent's execution quality.
