WeaveHacks: Agent Protocols Hackathon (MCP, A2A) with Weights & Biases & Google Cloud
BUILD YOUR AGENTS
WeaveHacks is the agent protocols hackathon to watch. On July 12-13, come to the Weights & Biases SF office to have the most fun building agents you'll have this year. This time, we're highlighting agent protocols (MCP, A2A, etc) and what they unlock.
We bring: A killer office with ultrawide monitors and standing desks, good food, expert judges, a robot dog that yells at you
You bring: Your ideas, a readiness to actually show up & crank out code, good vibes
Will you make a research agent? A personal productivity assistant? A library for other agents to leverage? What's the idea that's been on your mind? Whatever it is, no more excuses. This is your sign to build.
EXPECT:
🎁 $15k+ in prizes
🤖🐕: Win a Unitree g2 pro robot dog (like Boston Dynamics Spot). The dog will also help deliver drinks and snacks during the hackathon
Tons of food, snacks, drinks
A handful of excellent sponsors, who will have onsite assistance for integrating their tools. Only a few though - no hours-long presentations at the start. We're here to hack.
Expert judges who can offer specific feedback

APPLYING TO PARTICIPATE
Apply on Luma! Participants in our past hackathons get an instant acceptance. Beyond that, we prioritize hackers who have some kind of project they've built that they can point to (it doesn't need to be polished at all). Github or Devpost links are fine. No specific experience is required.
Note that we will likely hit max capacity on registrations before the event, so apply early, and mark yourself as going / not going as soon as you know (so you're not taking a slot from someone else).
Come ready to build agents 🙂
