- 'systemctl status kubelet'

- 'journalctl -xeu kubelet'

How do we add members in the archestra.ai site for the hackathon , when i have tried to share the invitation link to my team members , they were getting an invalid link message

New release! 🚀🚀🚀

Features

Bug Fixes

iadded the api key but not shown

Hey..I have a Master Orchestration Agent connected to multiple sub-agents and a self-hosted MCP server, and orchestration works correctly when triggered from the Archestra UI chat. However, when my external frontend tries to trigger orchestration via the /api/chat endpoint, Archestra returns errors like Unauthenticated, and falls back to frontend-side mock orchestration. As a result, no agent runs or MCP tool calls appear in Archestra logs. My goal is to trigger the Master Orchestration Agent programmatically from an external frontend and receive the real orchestration response. What is the correct way to initiate a new agent orchestration session via API so it runs fully inside Archestra so that i can have an orchestration first system rather than a chat based ui first system

1. Failed to connect to MCP server atlassian__remote-mcp: Streamable HTTP error: Error POSTing to endpoint: Missing sessionId parameter

Hey my MCP tools are registered and work when invoked manually, but A2A-triggered messages don’t result in tool execution or resolution.

Is there a required config (agent mode, tool trust policy, or run trigger setting) to ensure message/send actually starts autonomous execution?

Looking for the correct way to programmatically trigger a fully autonomous agent run from an external frontend?

Hey team 👋 Here’s my hackathon submission: PitCrew Incidents (Archestra + MCP) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLO5L_fgJeY

Getting issues with the quickstart guide, can anyone help, please?

I’ve created multiple agents, along with a parent agent that orchestrates them. When I send a request to the parent agent, it correctly delegates the task to a child agent. However, the request fails with an error stating that the LLM API key is not set for the individual agent.

I’m confused because I’ve already configured the LLM API key globally. Despite this, the system seems to require the API key to be set separately for each agent.

Is it actually necessary to configure an LLM API key for every individual agent, or should a single global key be sufficient?

i tried the gateway mode of archestra on first day it worked archestragatewaymode !! i think its allowed .. can i get a confirmation?

hello organisers!

sorry i had a busy week and now that the weekend is here im planning to hack something with Archestra for the 2 fast 2 mcp hackthon

joining late wont disqualify me right?

and just to double check I can make my submission till 15th Fe 11:59pm (GMT+5:30) right?

Hello! Had fun working on this.

And AI said, Let there be Light. (a light read, not ai-gen : D )

Cheers.

@user Can the submission video be longer than 3 minutes?

While using a2a chat response from archestra how do I change the model? For agent chat in archestra UI I am using gemini-2.5-flash but while calling the a2a endpoint from my backend it defaults to deep-research-pro-preview . How do I change it?

🛡️ Archestra Sentinel: Real-Time Governance for AI Agents

Just submitted my project for the 2 Fast 2 MCP Hackathon! 🚀

Sentinel is a security layer that bridges the gap between the host and the admin.

How I used Archestra: I utilized the Archestra Gateway Mode and a secure TCP Bridge to expose the host’s Docker daemon. This allows Sentinel to pull real-time container metrics for our Trust Intelligence Engine—evaluating agents based on Identity, Privilege, Network, and Resources—all while maintaining a secure, governed environment.

• Active Governance: One-click Kill/Quarantine for unauthorized agents.

• Cost Tracking: Live infrastructure burn-rate analytics.

• Trust Score: 4-vector logic (Identity, Privilege, Network, Resources).

As a final-year student, this project was an incredible journey into AI observability. I’m now looking to scale these architectural patterns into complex, real-world systems and connect with teams building the future of AI infrastructure. :clinking_glasses:.

Hi, this is really important

Ill really appreciate if someone from the team responds

Is it ok for the video to be more than 3 minutes???

FlowForge is an AI-powered no-code backend builder that converts natural language into production-ready APIs within seconds. Users describe their requirements, and the platform generates complete workflows with validation, database operations, authentication, and structured responses. It features a visual ReactFlow editor, real-time execution logs, chat-based intelligent workflow mutations, and a powerful Deploy to Archestra feature for instant production hosting. Built using Next.js, Express, MongoDB, WebSockets, and a multi-agent architecture (SupervisorAgent, BuilderAgent, MCPRuntime), FlowForge reduces backend development time from days to under a minute while maintaining transparency and scalability.

Hey everyone, here's my submission for 2 Fast 2 MCP 🏁

MCP Guardian — a security auditor that scans MCP servers for vulnerabilities and auto-enforces policies through Archestra.

It detects prompt injection, data exfiltration, command injection, the "Lethal Trifecta" (read + write + execute on a single server), and writes blocking policies directly back to Archestra's policy engine. Full closed loop: scan → detect → enforce.

6 Archestra API endpoints used, Terraform provider for deployment, and a malicious demo server included to showcase detection live.
