Frugalia
Hackathon for MCP & AI Agents (Solo.io)
A FinOps platform whose agents hunt down wasted Kubernetes spend on their own — spotting it, diagnosing the cause and applying the fix. Built on kagent, kgateway and kmcp, it turns cost optimization into something that runs continuously instead of quarterly.

kagent Vision
Hackathon for MCP & AI Agents (Solo.io)
An agent that gives kagent eyes: it grabs a webcam photo and transforms it with Nano Banana and Veo3. It also ships an American Sign Language mode, so accessibility was part of the design rather than an afterthought.

kagent-dotnet
Hackathon for MCP & AI Agents (Solo.io)
A bridge that wires kagent to the Microsoft Agent Framework over A2A, so agents built on the .NET side can be brought into the kagent ecosystem as-is.
