Agentic AI Foundation · Sri Lanka Chapter
Building the agentic future from Sri Lanka.
We're the local chapter of the Agentic AI Foundation, a Linux Foundation project. Meetups, workshops and open source contributions for everyone in Sri Lanka building AI agents, in the open, with the people doing the same work.
Our first meetup is in the works. Date, venue and registration go out on Luma.
About the chapter
A local room for people building agents.
The Agentic AI Foundation is a Linux Foundation project working on how agentic AI actually runs at scale: the standards, the governance, the tooling.
This chapter brings that work to Sri Lanka. Free, volunteer-run, and open to anyone who's curious, whether you've shipped agents to production or you're still working out what the word means.

What we build on
The projects behind the agent stack
AAIF hosts the open source projects a lot of the industry is quietly standardising on. If you want somewhere to contribute, start here. Each one has work that a first-time contributor can genuinely land.
Model Context Protocol
The open standard for connecting agents to tools, data and systems, so an integration written once works across clients.
Start hereBuild an MCP server for a tool your team already uses.goose
An open source, on-machine AI agent that runs tasks end to end: installs, edits, tests and debugs against your real environment.
Start hereRun it locally and file the first rough edge you hit.AGENTS.md
A simple, predictable file where a repository tells coding agents how to build, test and behave in it.
Start hereAdd one to a repo you maintain and share what improved.agentgateway
A data plane for agent traffic: routing, security and observability between agents, tools and the services behind them.
Start herePut it in front of an agent and look at what the traces show.

What we're writing
Meetup recaps, notes from building with agents, and the parts of the open agent stack worth paying attention to.
The first write-up lands after the first meetup.
We would rather publish the recap than pad the page ahead of it.
Stay in the loop
Don't wait for the next meetup to start talking.
One email when a meetup is announced, a write-up goes up, or we open a call for speakers. Nothing else.
Get involved
This only works if it's yours too
Three people can start a chapter. They can't be a chapter. Here's every way in. Pick the one that fits the time you actually have.
Speak at a meetup
Shipped something with agents, or broke something instructive? We're taking one 25–30 minute keynote and two 5–15 minute lightning talks. First-time speakers welcome; we'll help you shape it.
Sponsor or host a meetup
Three tiers from USD $100, or contribute in kind: a room, food, swag, recording. Either way your team gets in front of 70–100 engineers, founders and students, and we'll tell you exactly where it went.
