Learning Path
Agentic standards with watsonx Orchestrate
Summary
In this learning path, you built interoperable, secure, and reusable AI agents by using open standards and orchestration capabilities in watsonx Orchestrate. You also learned about tool standardization, cross-agent communication, and integrating agents with external services to support enterprise-grade workflows.
The learning path covered:
- Creating MCP-compliant tools and using these tools in watsonx Orchestrate with the watsonx Orchestrate Agent Development Kit to support secure and reusable automation.
- Exposing MCP tools through the ContextForge MCP Gateway to enable standardized integration with external services and simplify task orchestration.
- Skills to implement the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) standard for external agents to interoperate seamlessly with watsonx Orchestrate in multi-agent workflows.
- Building and orchestrating external agents by using OpenAI APIs and integrating these agents into watsonx Orchestrate to create scalable and modular AI systems.
