At the Interrupt Conference, LangChain unveiled a new agent platform that allows developers to build and share AI agents. The platform leverages Arcade.dev's support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable agents to perform actions on behalf of users across hundreds of services.

Why This Matters:

Complete Agent Ecosystem: Developers can now build, share, and deploy AI agents through an intuitive platform with flexible hosting options
Powerful Action Capabilities: Thanks to Arcade.dev, agents can securely interact with hundreds of services including Google, Slack, Stripe, and Salesforce
Open Standards Support: Full compatibility with MCP ensures interoperability with any MCP server that supports HTTPS, creating an extensible foundation for agent development

How It Works:

The LangChain agent platform provides a versatile environment with streamlined agent creation and management through a new UI. Developers can choose between LangGraph cloud hosting or local development using LangGraph Studio.

By leveraging Arcade.dev's extensive library of integrations and first-class MCP support, the platform enables agents to securely interact with hundreds of external services while maintaining proper permissions.
