#42 - Vultr Agent Runtime Hackathon

\\\Do note that you have to sign-up at the Luma event to be able to attend: https://luma.com/stockholm-nn3n\\\ All right!!! ​Meetup #42 will take the shape of a full day 12h Hackathon!!! Bring your laptops and your hacking chops and let's go! (And yes, there will be food, drinks and refreshments throughout the day!) ​The hackathon is centred around a single challenge: ​Build a web-based agent that performs real work - writing and running code, or operating a real browser - with every action contained inside a sandbox running on Vultr. Your system should act as a centralized control layer that plans a task, dispatches it to an isolated execution environment, and returns verifiable output. ​Projects should demonstrate multi-step agentic workflows, real executed results rather than described ones, and a production-style web application - all running on Vultr infrastructure. ​Containment-first is required. An agent that only chats is a demo; an agent that executes safely is a product. ​There will be a team from Vultr on-site to help guide you through the day! More detailed agenda will be provided. Stay tuned! ​Who should participate? ​Developers, AI/ML and platform engineers, and technical founders building agentic applications. Participants will work in teams of 2–4. If you show up solo, we'll help you join/form a team! Pre-reqs ​Laptop and GitHub account, working Python (or TypeScript) and API experience, and basic LLM familiarity. No special hardware needed. Vultr will provide credits for cloud compute, and we'll share a short prep guide beforehand. Prizes ​The three most impressive projects formally submitted will all receive cash prizes and additional Vultr credits! (More on this later... Stay tuned!) Hackathon Infrastructure ​Deploy a VM-based backend on Vultr (mandatory) ​Agent LLM calls must go through Vultr Serverless Inference (mandatory) ​Vultr should be the central system of control and orchestration, not just static hosting ​Sandboxes run as
