Opinionated agentic development and sharing | Made for Dev Show Ep. 3

In Episode 3 of our Made for Dev @DockerInc special, Sammy Deprez and Oleg Šelajev dive into the world of Docker Agent (formerly known as Cagent).

If you’ve ever wanted to build your own custom AI agent that is portable, shareable, and integrated with your local tools, this is the episode for you. Oleg walks us through the "Agent-as-Code" philosophy and demonstrates how to spin up a specialized assistant using a simple YAML configuration.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• The Transition from Cagent to Docker Agent: Why Docker is standardizing the way we build and run AI agents. • Agent-as-Code: How to define an agent’s personality, model (Claude, GPT, Gemini), and toolset in a single assistant.yml file. • Local Runtime: How to use the Docker Agent CLI to run your assistants directly in your terminal. • Tool Integration: Seeing the agent in action as it performs research, writes code, and handles complex debugging tasks.
