@cap-js-community/common@cap-js-community/commonSix independent features for CAP services in one package: replication cache, migration check, rate limiting, a Redis client broker, a local HTML5 repository and a CDM builder.community org, cap
Six CAP features in one package, from replication cache to rate limits
It is a bundle, not a plugin with one job. Depending on it for one feature brings the rest.
@cap-js-community/event-queue@cap-js-community/event-queueTransactional processing of asynchronous and periodic events, with instant dispatch over Redis Pub/Sub and load spread across every application instance.community org, cap
Transactional processing of asynchronous and periodic CAP events
If you need sub-second fan-out to external consumers this is the wrong layer — reach for [Event Mesh](artifact:btp-event-mesh) or Kafka. Without [Redis](external:redis), periodic processing still works but instant dispatch degrades to polling.

@cap-js/agents@cap-js/agentsSAP's own CDS plugin for building agents inside a CAP service, wired to audit logging and telemetry through peer dependencies rather than leaving observability to the author.sap official, cap
CDS plugin for building agents inside a CAP service
Not as a gateway or proxy for SAP Application APIs: capire's guide states that CAP-level agents are intended only for exposing custom CAP application services and are not an SAP-endorsed architecture or pathway for agentic access to those APIs, and sends the reader to the SAP Architecture Center for the endorsed routes. Not as the screen a user of the application talks to, either — the chat preview in the generic index.html page is marked experimental and for local development.

@cap-js/mcp@cap-js/mcpA CAP plugin that serves an @mcp-annotated service over MCP with three generated tools, describe, query and call_action, and writes its endpoint into the local agent's configuration in development.sap official, cap
Exposes CAP services as MCP servers for AI agents
SAP prohibits gateway/proxy use for SAP Application APIs; the Atlas applies that prohibition to CAP wrappers around those APIs. Data changes require application-defined unbound actions, and the adapter supplies no rate limiting, agent-action audit logging, approval workflows or policy enforcement. In beta, with nine releases in the six weeks after the first, so pin it.

@expertum/cap-email-plugin@expertum/cap-email-pluginSends mail on entity lifecycle events from an annotation — @email.enabled on an entity, an HTML template with {{placeholder}} substitution, and a plugin-owned log entity recording what went out and what failed.independent, cap
Annotation-driven mail on CAP entity lifecycle events
Node below 22, or [@sap/cds](artifact:sap-cds) below 9: the package declares the first in engines and the second as a peer dependency. Any mail path other than Microsoft Graph, until a provider is written for it: graph is the only kind that sends, and basic, the kind configured by default, is the base class such a provider extends.
@gavdi/cap-mcp@gavdi/cap-mcpGenerates an MCP server from the CDS model — annotated entities become resources and annotated actions become tools, so an agent reaches the service without a second server being written.independent, cap

@mi8y/cap-agents-aicore-vectorstore@mi8y/cap-agents-aicore-vectorstoreA LangChain vector store backed by SAP AI Core Document Grounding: the collection holds the documents and makes the embeddings, and the CAP application stores no vectors of its own.independent, cap
LangChain vector store on SAP AI Core Document Grounding
@mi8y/cap-agents-cds-vectorstore@mi8y/cap-agents-cds-vectorstoreA LangChain vector store whose documents and embeddings are CDS entities, so retrieval runs as a CDS query against the database the CAP service is already bound to.independent, cap
LangChain vector store with CDS entities for embeddings
@mi8y/cap-agents-memory@mi8y/cap-agents-memoryA LangGraph Store written against CDS: the facts and preferences an agent keeps between sessions are entities in the CAP database, read and written inside a request handler under its tenant.independent, cap
LangGraph Store keeping agent memory as CDS entities
@mi8y/cap-agents-sdm-backend@mi8y/cap-agents-sdm-backendA Deep Agents filesystem backend whose files are documents in an SAP Document Management repository, so what a CAP agent reads and writes stays where people can open it too.independent, cap
Deep Agents filesystem over an SAP Document Management repository
Not a way to edit Office formats: the author states that access to a file does not automatically provide native editing of Word documents, spreadsheets or PDFs, and suggests starting with text-based content such as instructions, templates and reports. Not a control point either: a prompt telling the agent to ask for confirmation or to leave a template alone needs enforceable application controls where that is a business requirement, and the host application stays responsible for the authenticated request context and tenant isolation.
@mi8y/cds-langgraph-persistence@mi8y/cds-langgraph-persistenceA LangGraph checkpointer backed by CDS, so an agent's state survives the request that created it — durability for LangChain and LangGraph agents running inside the CAP Node.js runtime.independent, cap
LangGraph checkpointer backed by CDS for CAP agents
@neoimpulse/cap-js-bootstrap@neoimpulse/cap-js-bootstrapA command-line tool that starts a local CAP environment with several services and an AppRouter together from one command, documented in German and requiring Node 22 or newer.independent, cap

@neoimpulse/cap-js-notifications@neoimpulse/cap-js-notificationsA copy of the official @cap-js/notifications plugin republished under another scope, whose README points at the original and says nothing about what was changed.independent, cap
Copy of @cap-js/notifications published under another scope
Reach for the original unless you know why you are not. This is a republished copy rather than a fork with a direction of its own: the README points at cap-js/notifications for the details, and nothing here says what was changed or why.
@neoimpulse/cap-js-restore-model-defined-types@neoimpulse/cap-js-restore-model-defined-typesA CAP plugin that casts values back to the types the CDS model declares after a READ, for the entities you name, where the database driver returned them as strings.independent, cap

@odatano/core@odatano/coreA CAP plugin that serves the Cardano blockchain as OData V4, giving enterprise-shaped access to a public chain, funded through Cardano Catalyst.independent, cap
CAP plugin serving the Cardano blockchain as OData V4
@odatano/core-mcp@odatano/core-mcpMCP server exposing ODATANO — the Cardano-to-OData bridge built on CAP — to an agent, so the chain is reachable as tools rather than as a REST client.independent, cap
MCP server exposing the ODATANO Cardano-to-OData bridge as tools
The repository the package declares has been deleted — verified against the GitHub API, not just a failed fetch. The package is still on npm, so it installs; the source it was published from is no longer readable, which is a harder thing to discover than a stale version number.
@odatano/nightgate@odatano/nightgateIndexes the Midnight blockchain and submits transactions to it from CAP, exposed as OData V4, with command-line tools for schema deltas, key rotation and migration.independent, cap
CAP plugin indexing the Midnight blockchain, exposed as OData V4
@odatano/nightgate-mcp@odatano/nightgate-mcpMCP server exposing NIGHTGATE, the Midnight blockchain attestation layer, as agent tools — the companion to the CAP indexer plugin of the same name.independent, cap
MCP server exposing the NIGHTGATE Midnight attestation layer
@odatano/watch@odatano/watchWatches Cardano addresses, payment credentials and minting policies from inside CAP, emitting events with full UTxO payloads and persisting them so a missed window can be replayed.independent, cap
CAP plugin watching Cardano addresses and emitting events
@patimweb/pi-cap-bestpractices@patimweb/pi-cap-bestpracticesA package for the pi coding agent that distributes SAP's capire/skills, carrying the upstream repository as a git submodule since version 2.0.0 replaced the author's own skill.independent, cap
SAP's capire/skills packaged for the pi coding agent
If your tool reads the open skill standard directly, install [capire/skills](artifact:capire-skills) and skip the wrapper.
@root3287/cap-segw@root3287/cap-segwA CAP build tool that compiles a CDS service into the ABAP Model Provider and Data Provider classes a SAP Gateway SEGW project expects, for OData V4 by default or V2.independent, cap
Compiler from a CDS service to SEGW model and data provider classes
The generated files are copied or deployed into the ABAP system by hand, the fourth step of its own usage list, so nothing keeps an activated service in step with the model it was generated from. Its peer dependency is `@sap/cds` ^9.8, so it does not install into a project on an earlier CAP release.
@sang2x/captools@sang2x/captoolsA CLI of eight CAP development commands aimed at Cloud Foundry workflows, shipped without a repository or README, whose binding step writes resolved VCAP_SERVICES into default-env.json.independent, cap
CLI of CAP development tools for Cloud Foundry workflows
There is no repository and no README: what the eight commands do is only readable from the compiled dist that ships in the package. Three of them — npmrc, install, project — are written for "SimpleMDG" projects rather than for CAP generally, so the reusable part is bind-local, run-local and debug. Seven releases up to July 2026. Its binding step writes the resolved VCAP_SERVICES into default-env.json in the project, where [@sap/cds-dk](artifact:sap-cds-dk) keeps only the place the credentials can be fetched from, so a project using it needs that file kept out of version control.
@sanjay-sde/cap-js-log-control@sanjay-sde/cap-js-log-controlA CAP plugin for controlling CDS logger verbosity and OpenTelemetry DiagLogger noise, reducing log clutter so that real errors surface.independent, cap
CAP plugin controlling CDS logger and OpenTelemetry log verbosity

@sap/ams@sap/amsDecides what a signed-in user may do in a Node.js application that authenticates through SAP Cloud Identity Services, from policies written in DCL.sap official, cap
Authorization from DCL policies for Node.js apps on SAP Cloud Identity
@sap/ams-dev@sap/ams-devCompiles the DCL authorization policies of SAP's Authorization Management Service to DCN, so an AMS-secured application runs and is tested on a laptop.sap official, cap
Compiler from AMS DCL policies to DCN for local runs and tests
Its own account of itself is local running and tests: the DCN it writes serves as input for running an application using AMS on the DCL bundle locally. It carries the SAP Developer License Agreement rather than an open-source licence, and the repository named in its package metadata is an internal SAP host, so the npm page is the only thing to read.

Endpoint discovery for CAP services deployed to Cloud Foundry
@saptools/hana-lens@saptools/hana-lensCompiles every CAP package in a workspace into one minified CSN cache, so "where is this entity and what columns does it have" is a query rather than a monorepo load.independent, cap
Workspace-wide CSN cache for querying CAP entities and columns
@saptools/service-flow@saptools/service-flowTraces one CAP operation end to end across several repositories without running anything — handlers, helper packages, local database access, remote OData calls, external HTTP and async channels.independent, cap

@shahid.la/cds-db-nlquery-mcp@shahid.la/cds-db-nlquery-mcpMCP server that answers plain-English questions against the entities in db/schema.cds — it discovers the schema, generates CQN-backed SQL with real joins, and returns rows.independent, cap
MCP server answering plain-English questions against a CDS schema
@ui5/mcp-server@ui5/mcp-serverSAP's MCP server for UI5 development: ten tools that scaffold an app or a card, read the project in front of the agent, and run the linter and the manifest validator against it.sap official, ui5
MCP server for UI5 development with ten tools
It reads a UI5 project and the framework's own documentation, not a running system or a backend: a question about the service behind the app is answered somewhere else. Node.js v20.17 or v22.9 and above.
a2a-plugina2a-pluginExposes an annotated CDS service as an Agent-to-Agent protocol agent — @a2a opts the service in, @a2a.Skill declares what it offers, and an agent handler answers.independent, cap
Exposes an annotated CDS service as an Agent-to-Agent agent
No public repository is declared on the package, so the README is the documentation.
abap2UI5 protocolabap2UI5 protocolThe abap2UI5 roundtrip written down: a versioned specification of the wire between frontends and backends, JSON Schemas for its messages, and two conformance suites that test either side.community org, abap
Versioned specification of the abap2UI5 roundtrip protocol
Neither suite has been run against an ABAP system: the reference backends are the framework transpiled to Node and cap2UI5 on CAP, so what a check does on a real system is open. The portable profile is a subset of 61 controls, filled from a census of 247 core apps of which 64.8 % run unchanged, so an app outside it renders placeholders in the terminal and Adaptive Cards renderers.
CAP GuardianCAP GuardianA CAP review skill for coding agents with hard gates, red flags and prohibitions across nine reference modules, each rule citing the capire page behind it in an evidence ledger.independent, cap
CAP review skill for coding agents with gates and prohibitions
No license Neither the package manifest nor the repository tree declares a licence.
Functional boundary There is no licence, so there is no grant to use or redistribute it. Everything else is secondary to that. Note too that its 'verified' claim means the skill text was checked against itself by an evaluation suite — not that the advice was run against a CAP version.
cap-agent-ui5-webuicap-agent-ui5-webuiGives a CAP agent a UI5 web interface out of the box, so an agent built in the service has somewhere to be talked to without a separate frontend project.independent, cap
UI5 web interface for an agent built in a CAP service
Not where the agent is reached over anything other than A2A: the README states the plugin does not speak anything other than A2A as @cap-js/agents serves it. Not where an upgrade has to be uneventful either — it pins @cap-js/agents to exactly 0.9.1, calls that package pre-1.0 and days old at the time of writing, and says this plugin inherits that instability and to expect breakage on upgrade.
cap-attachments-pluscap-attachments-plusA CAP Node.js attachments plugin with an Attachments aspect and a Fiori elements upload facet, storing content in the database locally or in AWS, Azure or GCP through a BTP destination.independent, cap
CAP Node.js attachments plugin with database or cloud storage
cap-collaborative-draftcap-collaborative-draftA cds-plugin that gives a CAP Node.js service the OData contract, tables and handlers Fiori elements needs for collaborative draft, so a second user joins an open draft instead of meeting HTTP 423.independent, cap
Collaborative draft support for CAP Node.js services
The maintainer marks this under active development; public APIs, annotation names and OData contracts may still change.

🔴 Your Agent Wants to Call SAP. Now What?🔴 Your Agent Wants to Call SAP. Now What?Devtoberfest 2026 session INT-23, on what belongs between an agent and an SAP system. A solution advisor and an enterprise architect point Joule Desktop extensions at MCP servers built on API Management inside SAP Integration Suite, and ask it for business partners, orders and line items from an S/4HANA demo system; asked for the ten largest customers it answers from a sample of 200 orders rather than reading the whole table. They then open the API proxy behind it, where a spike arrest policy caps the backend at ten calls per second and the MCP server is configured to expose only the GET resources of the business-partner API so that an agent cannot create one, which is where the edges to Serve your application over MCP and Rate limiting hold. For totals across all sales orders they send the agent to SAP Business Data Cloud instead of the transactional system, since it aggregates and is read-only, and back through Integration Suite for writes such as journal entries.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-30
🟣 Bring AI into Your ABAP Applications with ISLM: Build, Integrate, and Consume AI Natively🟣 Bring AI into Your ABAP Applications with ISLM: Build, Integrate, and Consume AI NativelyDevtoberfest 2026 session AI-11, from the product manager and product owner of Intelligent Scenario Lifecycle Management: ISLM as the place an AI use case is registered, deployed and operated inside an SAP S/4HANA system, and what has been added to it for generative AI. The demo builds a custom scenario end to end — an intelligent scenario of type generative AI, a connection to SAP AI Core, a GPT-5 mini model, an orchestration flow template that configures data masking, input and output filtering and translation into the user's logged-in language, then prompts with a grounding query over five companies' return-policy documents — and consumes it from an ABAP report through the ABAP AI SDK, which calls the orchestration API and returns the summary as JSON. Two newer pieces follow: SAP RPT, the relational pre-trained transformer for tabular prediction, called with context rows and query rows and answering with a confidence value and no training step; and system-triggered agents, where an application job in the ABAP system starts a billing-creation agent that reaches S/4HANA OData APIs as tools through the agent gateway with principal propagation. The closing availability matrix states the generative AI capabilities for on-premise and private cloud from the 2021 release, with SAP notes to implement on lower ones.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-24
🟣 Enable Your AI application to Run on Multiple Models to Ensure Resilience and Compliance🟣 Enable Your AI application to Run on Multiple Models to Ensure Resilience and ComplianceDevtoberfest 2026 session AI-21. A cross product owner on the SAP AI Core team gives the reasons an AI application ends up on more than one model — a model down at the hyperscaler, a data centre that is not allowed to run it, a version being deprecated — and runs a joke app that answers from Gemini 2.5 Flash in EU10 and from Claude 4.5 Haiku in Asia-Pacific. The walk through AI Core's parts is where the edges hold: prompts kept as templates in the prompt registry, imported through the launchpad and the APIs or synced as YAML from a git repository (Prompt management); the evaluation service scoring one prompt across up to four models per run on built-in or model-as-judge metrics, and the prompt optimizer generating variants against one metric (Agent evals); and the orchestration service harmonising the providers behind one message format with a priority-sorted fallback list (LLM integration). The session also states where a metric has to be designed rather than picked: an exact-JSON match scores an email generator at zero, so the joke app's custom metric judges topic and family-appropriateness instead.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-01
A Clearer View of Your SAP Integrations Under the New API PolicyA Clearer View of Your SAP Integrations Under the New API PolicyThe SAP API Policy Evidence Skill assesses one SAP interface or usage pattern at a time against SAP API Policy v.4.2026a, reading evidence from five MCP servers, among them servers for the Business Accelerator Hub and SAP Notes, mcp-sap-docs and a read-only ARC-1, and returns one of four labels with a confidence level, an evidence table, residual risk and questions for SAP. It gives no compliant or not compliant answer on purpose, because SAP's FAQ (Q49) declines to publish a binding decision matrix, and it sends legal, commercial and roadmap questions to SAP and lowers its confidence when a source is not connected. Four sample runs show the method, among them ODP-RFC extraction labelled likely not aligned under SAP Note 3255746 and the same API_SALES_ORDER_SRV assessed differently for an autonomous agent behind a custom gateway and for a Boomi middleware flow; the SAP Notes and Business Accelerator Hub servers read SAP sites through a browser login, which the post says to use at your own risk.published 2026-06-02

Add MCP capabilities to a CAP serviceAdd MCP capabilities to a CAP serviceA fifteen-minute walkthrough of turning a plain CAP service into an MCP server: annotate the service with @mcp, install @cap-js/mcp, and it is served alongside OData at /mcp/<path>. The part worth reading it for is what happens next — cds watch writes the endpoint into the local agent's own configuration file, so OpenCode or Claude Code can call the service without anyone editing JSON by hand. It is built on the tiny-sample facet, so there is nothing to prepare, and it shows the protocol traffic rather than only the result. Written while the adapter was in beta, and it says so.published 2026-08-13

Agentic AI on BTP: a Multi‑Agent App with Pydantic AIAgentic AI on BTP: a Multi‑Agent App with Pydantic AISplits a single CAP/TypeScript agent that had grown to juggle five BTP MCP servers behind one bloated tool list into btp-multiagent-app, a Python and Pydantic AI rewrite where the Cloud Foundry and BTP Core MCP servers each get a dedicated specialist agent, with an audit log specialist scaffolded but left disabled, behind an orchestrator whose only tools are delegation calls to those specialists, which is the agent-tooling pattern the piece works through. Each specialist authenticates to its MCP server over Streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.1, and a shared module centralises the SAP AI Core GenAI Hub model setup behind two credential layouts, one for local runs and one for the Cloud Foundry service binding, the LLM integration side of the rewrite. Tool lists per agent drop from well over a hundred to a dozen or two, and routing failures become separable from tool-misuse failures by reading the trace.published 2026-05-03
Agentic AI on BTP: a Single Agent with LangGraphAgentic AI on BTP: a Single Agent with LangGraphA CAP TypeScript agent puts a LangGraph StateGraph in front of AzureOpenAiChatClient from @sap-ai-sdk/langchain, reaching SAP AI Core's Generative AI Hub, and lets its tool-calling loop draw on five deployed MCP servers — OData MCP Proxy, CI MCP Server, AI Core MCP Server, BTP MCP Server and BTP CF MCP Server — through @langchain/mcp-adapters' MultiServerMCPClient. Because agent, servers and APIs share one XSUAA tenant, the chat service forwards the signed-in user's own JWT instead of a service account, so each downstream server enforces that user's own authorizations. Past roughly a hundred combined tools the single prompt slows down and stops separating concerns, which is why the author's next post splits it into one specialist agent per MCP server behind an orchestrator.published 2026-05-03
AI Assisted CAP DevelopmentAI Assisted CAP DevelopmentA Devtoberfest 2026 session (CAP-43) on building CAP applications with a coding agent, in two demos. The first asks the same question twice in a dev container, once with no MCP server configured and once with @cap-js/mcp-server registered: without it the agent answers CAP's semantic search with an outdated vector type and CQL, with its documentation search it writes the built-in vector embedding function and a working similarity query. The second installs the cap-developer plugin from capire/skills, from a Devtoberfest preview branch, and runs its guided-development skill stage by stage — domain model, sample data, services, constraints — each stage reviewed before the next.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-16
AI-assisted SAP development with MCPAI-assisted SAP development with MCPA Devtoberfest 2026 session (UI-41) that traces AI-assisted SAP development from pasting code into a chat window to coding agents with built-in connectors, and sorts the MCP servers around SAP development into SAP's own, the community's and the hosted ones, where the agent cannot change what the server allows. Four demos follow: GitHub Copilot alone explaining an ABAP report from a Git repository, @ui5/mcp-server reading an OpenUI5 sample app and converting it to TypeScript, mcp-sap-docs grounding Terraform files for a BTP subaccount the presenter had not written before, and arc-1 with Copilot in Eclipse tracing why a title longer than 40 characters is rejected and proposing the DDIC-allowed length instead. It ends on a skill that migrates an SAP Gateway project on an ECC system to RAP on S/4HANA step by step, and on a rule Marian Zeis gives for servers written for internal use: keep them read-only, because what the agent is short of is context.published 2026-10-16
AI-native North Star architecture — Platform LayerAI-native North Star architecture — Platform LayerThe platform layer of SAP's North Star architecture, the chapter that says where agents run and what a developer builds them with. It names an AI Golden Path built on the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model, the ABAP Cloud development model with RAP and the SAP Fiori design system, and a managed agent runtime on SAP BTP that is designed to provide software development kits for building agents in any framework, an agent sandbox, container-hosted execution, a skills registry and continuous evaluations, which is the ground agent tooling covers. Agents are extended without changing their code through four patterns, the first of them tool extensibility through the Model Context Protocol, the concern MCP servers is named for; the process-layer chapter adds that a pro-code path with a standardised agent SDK and a prompt-driven path through the Joule Studio solution produce the same code artifact on the same runtime. It describes a design SAP intends rather than products that exist, and the SDK and the registry it names have no entry here yet.published 2026-05-13

Two read-only showcases carry the ABAP Cloud readiness edge: a clean core check of one class that reports it is not released, uses USR02 and BUT000 directly and has no ATC findings, and a modernisation backlog for package ZSD_LEGACY which, as that package did not exist, grouped 28 ZSD* objects into risk buckets instead. The route through SAP Integration Suite API Management or a future MCP gateway is presented as a target architecture and not yet a productive setup, because Joule Studio's documentation requires streamable HTTP destinations and does not support MCP servers that need interactive OAuth user authorisation.published 2026-05-06

Be the First to Understand Joule Work's Agentic ThinkingBe the First to Understand Joule Work's Agentic ThinkingA Devtoberfest 2026 session on the agent harness behind agentic thinking in Joule Work: generic operating-system tools in a gVisor-isolated sandbox instead of hand-wired domain functions, a react loop, a warm pool of sandboxes torn down after each task, tenant-separated skill loading, and placeholder tokens the agent never sees swapped for real credentials at the egress path. A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md carrying metadata and instructions, and where it reaches a system, an SAP connectivity JSON that declares each connector by ORD ID with its guardrails — GET allowed by default, POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE requiring human approval, everything else blocked. The demo uploads a cost-centre skill through the skills view, then has agentic thinking delegate over A2A through Agent Gateway to a custom agent built in Joule Studio, whose MCP tools read cost centres from an S/4HANA Cloud system, and ends by turning the result into a PDF; the Joule Studio trace is what shows the tool call actually happened.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-15
Before You Upgrade S/4HANA: Static UI5 Checks with MCPBefore You Upgrade S/4HANA: Static UI5 Checks with MCPA UI5 version upgrade checked against one app by pairing two MCP servers: the ui5_version_diff tool added to mcp-sap-docs, which reads a bundle from ui5-lib-diff downloaded once at setup and filters it by version range, change type, library or query text, and @ui5/mcp-server, whose get_project_info, get_version_info, run_ui5_linter and run_manifest_validation say what the app uses and what fails.

Beyond copilots: Agentic development with SAPUI5Beyond copilots: Agentic development with SAPUI5Devtoberfest 2026 session UI-12, from the SAPUI5 team, on the year of work behind UI5/plugins-coding-agents: what a model produces for UI5 without help — outdated concepts, framework versions a decade old, generic JavaScript rules, code that does not run — and the two ways they chose to close that gap, an MCP server in September 2025 and skills packaged as plugins once agents began reading them. Three plugins are demonstrated live in Claude Code: the everyday one scaffolds an Oktoberfest tents application in about four minutes, the TypeScript conversion plugin rewrites an existing JavaScript project and reconfigures its build with the types and the transpile task, and the modernisation plugin takes a ten-year-old application through staged migrations, applying UI5 Linter's automatic fixes where they cannot break the app and the model where they can, then running the tests. @ui5/mcp-server is still the path for the parts that need a server, and the plugins are installed from the Claude Code and GitHub Copilot marketplaces rather than a UI5-hosted one.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-25

The site is a CAP application on SAP HANA Cloud and SAP BTP, open-sourced in full, and the half of the session that places it here is how its content reaches an agent: every tutorial is also served as markdown, a coding agent is detected and given that version instead of the HTML, a well-known agent card advertises what the site offers, and SAP Developers MCP answers questions about tutorials, news and a reader's own completion history in Claude Code and Joule Desktop, over OAuth or a personal access token. Behind the answers sit two things working together: a knowledge graph in the HANA database over 1400 tutorials and 11,000 concepts, and SAP AI Core for the Joule interactions and the embeddings, with the agent harness written for the site rather than taken off a shelf. Where neither MCP nor A2A is available, the same content is published as skills.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-25

Building Code-Based AI Agents on the BAIPBuilding Code-Based AI Agents on the BAIPA Devtoberfest 2026 session on writing the agent yourself rather than configuring one, which is the agent tooling edge: an agent is a model with tools, skills, memory and context around it, and the session reads the code of one built in CAP as a LangGraph state graph, with an agent node that calls the model, a tools node holding the MCP clients, and the edge between them looping until no tool is needed. It then shows the shorter route, a CDS service annotated for the agent protocol with its instructions and skills in an agent.md file. SAP AI Core carries both, with the CAP service in front of it as middleware so the credentials never reach the browser, and that is what cap-agent-ui5-webui is demonstrated against: added as a dependency, it gives the annotated service a UI5 chat interface that can be deployed rather than only previewed. A Python multi-agent application on Cloud Foundry, where an orchestrator delegates to per-stack specialists so no single model sees every tool, closes the session.published 2026-10-09

Treating an agent as a software architecture rather than a model with tools makes a list of production requirements — identity, authn and authz, multitenancy, persistence, event-driven flows, scalability, observability, CI/CD — and the author's point is that CAP already answers most of them for BTP, which is what makes LangGraph inside CAP Node.js worth doing.

The first half sets the join across three relational tables against an ontology of classes and predicates, the subject-predicate-object triple written as a turtle file, and a SPARQL query over it, and argues that the chain of relationships is what makes a recommendation traceable back to its reasons. The demo, taken from a Discovery Center mission, curates the ontology and the RDF files for an accounts receivable scenario in VS Code, ingests the triples into HANA Cloud with SQL and walks the resulting graph outward from a customer; that is the graph, spatial and document data edge. It closes by separating three things that share the name: the HANA Cloud knowledge graph engine, SAP Knowledge Graph as the data, and the knowledge graph in SAP Business Data Cloud.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-22

CAP Foundry: Engineering SAP CAP Applications from Business Intent with Guardrailed AICAP Foundry: Engineering SAP CAP Applications from Business Intent with Guardrailed AICAP Foundry is a prototype that generates a CAP Node.js project with SAP Fiori elements from a written business requirement, discovering the actual data shape from a chosen source — SQLite, a configured SAP HANA HDI container, offline EDMX, live OData through the SAP Destination service, or approved SAP BTP ABAP objects — instead of inventing one. The generated application can carry a Fiori draft lifecycle with optimistic concurrency via ETags and annotation-driven Fiori elements list and object screens, localized independently of the underlying service contract. Attachments can be added with upload, download and delete, gated on a malware-scan status, and the generated project still has to compile, build and pass its generated tests before the run is accepted.Shahid, published 2026-08-20

Two of the adapter's tools are worked through: describe, the one an MCP client reaches for first to get the overview of what it may do, and query, which the panel establishes as read-only.

The call tool then exposes a service's unbound actions and functions, as one generic tool or, behind a flag, one tool per action with its own description and input schema; a question from the chat about extension points gets the answer that the adapter does the tools, which the panel calls a small subset of the protocol.published 2026-08-14
CAP in the age of AI #3 - from MCP to A2ACAP in the age of AI #3 - from MCP to A2AThe episode that finishes @cap-js/mcp with authorisation and then crosses to agents. @requires and @restrict are the same annotations CAP already has, and the plugin reads them to filter the tool list and the describe output per user and per request, so a model is not told about entities the caller cannot reach — where the OData metadata of the same service lists every exposed entity regardless. The second half annotates a service with @agent from @cap-js/agents, which serves it over A2A with an agent card and a chat preview, runs first against a mocked response and then against SAP AI Core bound with cds bind and a hybrid profile, and reuses the MCP adapter's tools rather than defining new ones.published 2026-08-21
CAP in the age of AI #4 - more on agentsCAP in the age of AI #4 - more on agentsAsking a human first, and telling the agent how to behave. Ordering a book through @cap-js/agents happens without a question being asked; the human-in-the-loop annotation on the action turns the same request into an approve-or-reject step, which the episode follows down to the A2A status update that stores the task in an input-required state in the database — A2A itself being JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP with server-sent events for the stream. The rest is instructions on disk: an agents.md in the service's own folder removes the question about how many copies to order, a skill under a skills folder is advertised by its description and read only when the agent decides the case applies, and either file makes the plugin build a deep agent instead of the plain one.published 2026-09-11
CAP in the age of AI #5 - agents wrap-upCAP in the age of AI #5 - agents wrap-upThe agents topic closed out on what sits around the agent rather than inside it, now that the documentation has moved into capire. The chat preview's session is persisted in the database rather than kept in memory, traces go out through @cap-js/telemetry to a self-hosted MLflow under the OpenTelemetry conventions for generative AI, and the panel is explicit that @agent reuses the MCP adapter's code programmatically without serving an MCP endpoint. It ends in the xtravels sample, where a travel agent delegates to a hotel-service sub-agent and reaches a separately started flight service over MCP through the service binding CAP resolves anyway. Earlier in the hour the same agent answers from a model running on the presenter's laptop, reached as an OpenAI-compatible endpoint.published 2026-10-02
CAP in the age of AI #6 - vector embeddingsCAP in the age of AI #6 - vector embeddingsVector embeddings put to work in the incident management sample, answering whether this problem has been seen before. An embedding element of type Vector is calculated and stored from the vector_embedding function, so the database refreshes it whenever the text behind it changes, and cosine_similarity compares it with a freshly embedded string; because a title says little, a scheduled action first summarises each incident's conversation through a model on SAP AI Core and the embedding is taken from that summary. The similar-incidents list is a view joining incidents to themselves, with order and limit set in a before handler on the expanded query, and the vector element excluded from the service, since OData knows nothing about vectors — on SAP HANA Cloud the function is native, while SQLite needs packages added to the project.published 2026-10-09
CAP in the age of AI #7 - vector embeddings wrap-upCAP in the age of AI #7 - vector embeddings wrap-upThe same embeddings model taken from SQLite to SAP HANA Cloud, then handed to an agent. Locally it is @cap-js/ai that adds the vector functions SQLite lacks and downloads an all-MiniLM L6v2 ONNX model on first start; on HANA natural language processing has to be switched on, the model name is a mandatory argument, the vectors it returns are 768 dimensions, and dimensions must match on both sides of a comparison. HANA itself can be given SAP AI Core as a remote source for other embedding models, which a CDS.ql expression has to inject because the postfix notation only takes what the CDS model holds, and the hour ends with a search function over cosine similarity exposed over @cap-js/mcp, so an agent asked about low output from solar panels calls semantic search instead of writing the query itself.published 2026-10-16
CAP-level Data FederationCAP-level Data FederationA Devtoberfest 2026 session (CAP-31) on letting one CAP application read another's data as if it were local. The modelling half is the same for both answers, which is why the two technical edges hold: the provider defines an API service and exports it with CDS export as an npm package carrying the model, mock data and translated texts, the consumer imports it and puts consumption views on top, and only then is it wired either as service-level replication that copies the rows into local tables each time the server starts, or over the SAP HANA synonyms that cds-federation-synonyms generates, with HDI grants on the provider side and a service replacement that redirects each synonym from its mock table to the provider's container. It is worked through on xflights and xtravels, including the local run where CDS watch mocks the imported service from the CSV files inside the package.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-02
