@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.

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.

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.

Agentic AI & AI AgentsAgentic AI & AI AgentsSAP's target picture for AI agents: Joule as the engagement layer — Joule Work, Joule Assistants, Joule Agents — with custom agents from customers, partners and SAP teams connecting through A2A for agent-to-agent collaboration and MCP for tool connectivity, on the SAP Business AI Platform. It says up front that parts are not generally available yet, in particular bidirectional communication with third-party agents through the Agent Gateway, so it reads as direction with the building blocks named rather than a design to copy today.published 2026-08-27
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
Agentic memory: Knowledge graph engine and recall in SAP HANA CloudAgentic memory: Knowledge graph engine and recall in SAP HANA CloudThe knowledge graph engine in SAP HANA Cloud as an agent's memory: what the engine, the graph side of graph, spatial and document data, does in an agentic workflow, how an agent keeps what it learns there, the state agent tooling holds between turns, and the SAP AI Core integration through which the database calls LLMs and tabular foundation models such as SAP-RPT-1. The abstract names the engine, the memory role and the AI Core link and does not say how the memory is written or read.

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
Build Your AI Agent prototype for free using SAP CAP, LangChain and Ollama cloudBuild Your AI Agent prototype for free using SAP CAP, LangChain and Ollama cloudA CAP Node.js service action calls an Ollama-hosted model through LangChain's ChatOllama, with the API key read from a .env file instead of any destination or credential binding — the hand-rolled-key route SAP's own SDK call exists to avoid.

Building a Pro-Code Agent on SAP BTP — Part 2: The Agent (LangGraph + GenAI Hub)Building a Pro-Code Agent on SAP BTP — Part 2: The Agent (LangGraph + GenAI Hub)Part 2 of a three-part series builds a separate, non-CAP Node/TypeScript agent that calls the Part 1 CAP service's MCP tools and reasons through SAP AI Core via @sap-ai-sdk/orchestration, using LangGraph's createAgent ReAct loop for provider-agnostic model calls across GPT, Claude and Gemini deployments. It explains why the tool's Zod schema and model-facing description are the agent's actual contract, the gotcha between a foundation-models deployment and an orchestration-scenario one, and how edge-case testing replaced date inference with a server-computed daysOverdue field after the agent wrongly called a delayed order 'on schedule'.rodfior, published 2026-08-20

It covers CAP's default JWT/XSUAA authentication in production, what a test deployment needs to get past it, and the cf push, mbt build and environment wiring that run both apps as separate Cloud Foundry containers. A closing section names what stays unfinished by design — a long-lived AI Core service key, no authentication on the BTP destination, no principal propagation — as the gap between this MVP and a production posture.rodfior, published 2026-08-20

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

Building Durable AI Agents - Announcing the cds-langgraph-persistence PluginBuilding Durable AI Agents - Announcing the cds-langgraph-persistence PluginThe announcement, and the argument behind it. 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 post then narrows to one of those requirements, durability, and the checkpointer that supplies it. Written from a year of building agents next to real business systems rather than as a framework tour.merbinjanselm, published 2026-07-15

CAP in the age of AICAP in the age of AISeven live episodes of Hands-on SAP Dev in which DJ Adams works through CAP's AI features with the people who build them, each one a screen-share against a sample project. The first three are @cap-js/mcp: the @mcp annotation on a service, the describe, query and call tools, CQL as the query format, and what authorisation takes out of the tool list. From episode three the run moves to A2A and @cap-js/agents — human approval of an action, agents.md and skills, session persistence, telemetry and sub-agents — and the last two episodes are vector embeddings in CDS, local on SQLite and native on SAP HANA Cloud.published 2026-08-07
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: The Road Ahead - Simplicity in an AI EraCAP: The Road Ahead - Simplicity in an AI EraDevtoberfest 2026 session CAP10, from the head of SAP's Cloud Application Programming Model: forty minutes of live building rather than slides, on the argument that the cheapest code in an AI project is code nobody has to generate. Claude Code builds an invoice-matching workspace from cds init onwards, and each step is one the framework answers rather than the agent: a 42-line domain model that @sap/cds serves as OData and Fiori elements with a status flow, data privacy and change-tracking annotations that produce audit log entries in the console and would reach the SAP Audit Log service once deployed, an imported S/4HANA supplier data product, and semantic matching from a local embedding model after @cap-js/ai is added. The last three steps are annotations: @mcp beside @odata turns the service into an MCP server that a second Claude session queries through @cap-js/mcp, an agent annotation adds the A2A protocol with an agent card and an audit log entry for the agent task, and a skill file gives the agent the matching policy.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-25
Combining AI Agents with the power of SAP HANA embedded ML (part 1)Combining AI Agents with the power of SAP HANA embedded ML (part 1)Devtoberfest 2026 session DAT-12, the first of two parts, in which Vitaliy Rudnytskiy does a data scientist's work against the embedded machine learning of SAP HANA Cloud by talking to an agent. The session first takes an agent apart into its LLM, its tools, its memory and the loop between them, then stacks the Predictive Analysis Library under the hana-ml Python wrapper and that under the HANA AI toolkit, whose tools an agent calls from plain English in a notebook to preview a sales refunds table, split it into train and predict tables, run a time-series check and train an AutoML forecast, keeping what it decided in Markdown memory files. That is the agent tooling edge; the same toolkit is then started as an MCP server over stdio and over streamable HTTP and reached from a coding agent and from Joule Work's desktop, which is where the live demo partly fails and the failure is shown.published 2026-09-22
Connecting AI agents to the ABAP RESTful application programming modelConnecting AI agents to the ABAP RESTful application programming modelJoule Studio, classic edition connects Joule Agents to applications built with the ABAP RESTful application programming model through actions and skills, calling the OData services those applications expose their business objects through: the tools an agent may call, which is the agent tooling concern seen from the ABAP side.

Content-based Agents with SAP Joule Studio Agent BuilderContent-based Agents with SAP Joule Studio Agent BuilderJoule Studio, classic edition, the capability in SAP Build the page calls Joule Studio, is where an organisation creates and manages its own Joule skills and Joule agents; its Agent Builder is for a custom agent that handles a multi-step task by combining instructions, model-backed planning and reasoning, and a configured set of tools, Joule skills, document resources, MCP servers, or other agents run as subagents. The page states an agent executes inside the calling user's own security context through SAP Cloud Identity Services, and can be tried against a test conversation before deployment. That is the tool-and-turn-taking ground agent tooling covers, here built through Joule Studio rather than in application code.
Custom Joule Agent for SAP Ariba SLP - Building an AI Agent for Supplier Registration ApprovalCustom Joule Agent for SAP Ariba SLP - Building an AI Agent for Supplier Registration ApprovalBuilds a Joule Studio agent that reviews SAP Ariba SLP supplier registration tasks: four custom skills bind to Ariba's API (pending tasks, task detail, questionnaire answers, post a decision), each needing a precisely configured BTP destination and action, and the agent's own Expertise, Instructions and Additional Context sections carry the domain knowledge, the step order, and the scoring rubrics that decide approve, deny or deny-with-resubmit. The author contrasts this with an earlier hand-wired flow on SAP Build Process Automation, where every connection, variable and error path had to be designed and wired manually.Giancarlo-Martinez, published 2026-04-07

Explaining SAP Joule for HR Business Users & Functional Consultants.Explaining SAP Joule for HR Business Users & Functional Consultants.Written for HR business users and functional consultants, this walks through how SAP Joule is provisioned on SAP BTP and wired into SuccessFactors: the Joule instance sits in a BTP subaccount, SAP Build Work Zone is created alongside it, and Identity provisioning syncs users from SuccessFactors into Build Work Zone while Cloud Identity Services authenticates the launch through an IAS tenant. It lists five prerequisites for the connection — a BTP global account, a Joule entitlement, Cloud Identity Service and SuccessFactors admin access, and the right personas — and notes that running BTP's booster adds the Joule permission to the SuccessFactors user's profile.santanuray_learner, published 2025-03-23
From Intent to Arcade: Building Joule*Bert with Joule Studio and AI-Assisted Pro CodeFrom Intent to Arcade: Building Joule*Bert with Joule Studio and AI-Assisted Pro CodeA Devtoberfest 2026 AI-track session that takes a Q*bert-style arcade game, written as an Easter egg for colleagues, through every phase Joule Studio runs: intent analysis with its clarifying questions, a product requirements document, a specification with its task list, generated code, generated tests and deployment. The knowledge-graph lookup reports that the game maps to no enterprise process and the flow adjusts, and the presenter edits the requirements by hand when the first version declares sound out of scope. He then pushes the project to GitHub, clones it and initialises the jl command line so that Joule Studio's MCP servers are wired into the coding agent in VS Code, where mobile arrow keys were added afterwards; applications could not yet be deployed to the Joule Studio runtime, so this one runs on Kyma.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-01

Governance at Scale: Why a Clean Core Is What Makes Agent Governance EnforceableGovernance at Scale: Why a Clean Core Is What Makes Agent Governance EnforceableClosing a six-part clean-core series, the post argues that SAP's two agentic-AI governance mechanisms only work against a documented tool surface: MCP Gateway in SAP Integration Suite auto-translates API specifications into MCP tool schemas augmented with natural-language semantics, carrying forward existing authentication, authorization and rate limiting into the agentic layer, while AI Agent Hub, built on SAP LeanIX, discovers and runs verification assessments on agents, LLMs and MCP servers before the resulting badge is read by Joule Studio or SAP Integration Suite to decide what is trusted. Its argument holds the mechanisms up against an undocumented internal interface, where the auto-generated schema and the verification badge have nothing real underneath them, and against a consolidated CAP service exposing only released APIs, where both do.DEEPA_DORAIRAJ, published 2026-09-21

The integration is built by publishing RunMyJobs operations to the SAP Business Accelerator Hub, securing access through SAP BTP with API keys and role-based permissions, and combining those actions into a skill inside Joule Studio's low-code design canvas.gmblom, published 2025-11-02
How to implement business AI capabilities in ABAP CloudHow to implement business AI capabilities in ABAP CloudA Devtoberfest 2026 session (ABA-32) on embedding AI in an ABAP Cloud application and on making SAP Joule aware of what that application can do. The first demo implements two features of a RAP travel app with the ABAP AI SDK: a determination on an uploaded receipt that sends the image together with the allowed categories and transaction types to a model reached through an intelligent scenario, then writes the extracted description, category, currency and amount back to the expense entity; and a recommendation function, triggered by a side effect on the trip title, that proposes a trip type with a score the Fiori UI sorts the proposals by and leaves the business user to accept — which is LLM integration from ABAP code. The second demo builds a capability for SAP Joule in the Joule Studio code editor in VS Code, with a scenario that extracts a trip title from the user's intent and calls an OData service in the ABAP backend through a BTP destination, deploys it and asks the Joule test UI for the trip's details; the session states that agents reach ABAP only over governed remote APIs — OData, SQL and MCP — and that automatic grounding of custom OData services in the knowledge graph is upcoming rather than available.published 2026-10-05

Integrating and Extending JouleIntegrating and Extending JouleSAP's reference architecture for SAP Joule across SAP cloud applications: a request is checked against a Scenario Catalog of the applications' skills and a Knowledge Catalog answered by retrieval-augmented generation, combined with the user's roles and history, sent to an LLM available through the generative AI hub, and, where a Joule function is needed, turned into a call to the backend. Its identity page is the authentication path: each user sits in the Identity Directory of Cloud Identity Services with a Global User ID, Identity Provisioning synchronises role assignments into SAP Build Work Zone, whose navigation service decides which functions a user may call, and the Destination service exchanges the user's token to call a function in the user's name. Its extension page covers Joule Studio in SAP Build, where Joule skills automate rule-based tasks over APIs and AI agents plan and reason with models and document grounding from SAP AI Core, the ground agent tooling covers; a later Joule Studio page describes a managed Joule Studio Runtime on the SAP Business AI Platform, which has no entry here.published 2026-03-16

Meet Joule Studio and Build your First AI AgentMeet Joule Studio and Build your First AI AgentA Devtoberfest 2026 session from the product manager of Joule Studio, walking one agent through the whole path the tool defines: an intent, the problem statement and goals a coding agent derives from it, the business context it takes from the SAP knowledge graph, and the solution type it proposes with a stated intent fit. The demo is a collections agent that drafts dunning emails: the product requirements document names the metrics and the human-in-the-loop review, the technical specification lists the artifacts to build — the MCP tools among them — and the build is followed by a business test run against business partner 10001, technical unit tests, and deployment to the managed runtime, where the agent and its MCP server appear as deployed assets. Two points shape how it is used rather than what it produces: every asset is a file, editable in the web editor or in the code view and pushable to git, and the same solution can be built from local pro-code tools; n8n workflows are stated as delivered out of the box inside the studio.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-24
Pro-Code AI AgentsPro-Code AI AgentsPro-code agents are the most flexible way the page frames building an agentic workflow on SAP BTP: full autonomy, custom API integrations and algorithms chosen by the developer, set against declarative alternatives such as content-based agents and Joule Scenarios. It names LangGraph as the framework it recommends for production, enterprise-grade agentic workflows, alongside the ReAct pattern as the plan-act-observe loop such an agent runs. That is the ground agent tooling covers, building an agent's own tool-calling loop rather than exposing an application to somebody else's agent.

Playing a procurement manager, one presenter states the intent in the browser, answers the clarifying questions, watches the fit-gap analysis name the S/4HANA APIs the use case needs, and pushes the intent and requirements document to GitHub; the other clones it and carries on in a terminal, logging in with the jl command line against her landscape URL and running its init command to fetch Joule Studio's skills for OpenCode. From there the coding agent writes the specification, the discovered API specifications, the MCP translation and the agent's Python file with its model configuration and evaluation scenarios, which is the edge to Agent tooling; the skills themselves, which SAP says not to edit but which a developer may add to, are the edge to Agent guidance.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-01
SAP Agentic AI in Practice: Building the SAP Exception Log Triage Agent (Part 3 of 6)SAP Agentic AI in Practice: Building the SAP Exception Log Triage Agent (Part 3 of 6)Part 3 of a six-part series builds a router agent that classifies incoming SM21 system log errors and SM37 job failures, delegates each to a specialized sub-agent built with LangGraph's create_react_agent, and correlates findings across both logs into a single severity score and escalation list. State moves through a typed dict shared between the router and its sub-agents, with tools that query SAP HANA tables directly; a reactive on-demand mode sits alongside a scheduled monitoring loop that compares error counts to a baseline and escalates automatically past a threshold. The router-plus-sub-agent split carries forward to Part 6, where the same router coordinates the assessment agents built in the series' other parts.DEEPA_DORAIRAJ, published 2026-04-06

The live demo asks Joule for the available data products and the top ten open purchase orders, with the data product query agent compiling SQL over virtual tables and a space rendering a dashboard, which is the cataloguing side of this: a central registry, the Unified Customer Landscape, that every activated data product is registered in. The Q&A covers where the knowledge graph lives and what a customer may extend, base policies that turn into filter conditions on an agent's queries, and Joule Studio as the place to build your own agents and data products.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-29

It covers data products described with open resource discovery and core schema notation metadata, a data product creation agent that assembles a derived data product for overdue billing documents from the billing document and customer products and shows its lineage and fields; the data products a line-of-business application brings being readable by Joule without a BDC subscription; and the SAP-managed knowledge graph that maps business entities and their relationships for agents, held as graph data in the SAP HANA Cloud knowledge graph engine as RDF triples queried with SPARQL. The closing demo has SAP Joule answer head-count and purchase-order questions, with the generated SQL passed through a data product query that adds the restriction policy defined for that user in cloud identity services, which is why the session stands for cataloguing and lineage as much as for the products it names.SAP Developers, published 2026-10-06

SAP's API Policy on AI Agents: What It Prohibits, Allows, and Leaves OpenSAP's API Policy on AI Agents: What It Prohibits, Allows, and Leaves OpenReading SAP's API Policy v.4.2026a and its FAQ against the reference architectures, the piece narrows the widely repeated claim that SAP bans AI to what Section 2.2.2 actually restricts: an agent planning and chaining API calls outside an SAP-endorsed route, closed off further by Section 3's block on bypassing API Controls through custom code. It compares the endorsed and allowed paths — the MCP Gateway on SAP Integration Suite reaching S/4HANA and ECC through RFC-based back ends under a 15-tool, 200,000-token limit, SAP-provided MCP servers through Joule Studio, the A2A protocol, customer-operated MCP servers allowed under FAQ Question 56, and the ADT MCP Server, whose 18 tools work only on development artifacts and are documented as not intended for productive use. It leaves open whether Section 2.2.2 covers ABAP code that calls a model from inside the system, since enforcement is defined at the API-traffic level rather than by a list of tools.published 2026-08-31

What's in Daniel Hutzel's brain?What's in Daniel Hutzel's brain?A Devtoberfest 2026 session in the building-apps track, in which Daniel Hutzel and DJ Adams work through what the CAP team is building for agents. A bookshop gets an MCP endpoint beside its OData one from a single annotation, with the plugin writing the coding agent's configuration itself; in the xt-travels sample five services that know nothing about each other are served over MCP and an agent does the orchestration the hand-built UI and its value helps used to do. Hutzel then annotates a service as an agent so the ReAct loop and the choice of model move into the CAP service, and finally drops MCP for a skill that teaches the agent CQL instead, which is where the edges to Serve your application over MCP, Agent tooling and Agent guidance come from. The mechanism under all of it, a plugin file in the package root and event handlers that can be added to any CAP service, is the edge to Plugin authoring.published 2026-10-02

🔴 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
🟣 AI Eating Brains! How I Fed Mine to Joule Work Desktop🟣 AI Eating Brains! How I Fed Mine to Joule Work DesktopDevtoberfest 2026 session AI-22. Mathias Kemeter connects his Obsidian note vault to Joule Work Desktop with VaultGate, a local HTTP MCP server he wrote in his spare time because the desktop's sandbox accepts HTTP MCP servers and not stdio ones, and because he wanted the vault reached through Obsidian's own command line rather than by direct file access. The demo builds a Space of management tasks from notes and mailbox together, has the assistant pick up a conventions file in the vault without being told where the reporting rules are, finds a conflict the notes never name by semantic search over local embeddings, and appends a task to a sprint note behind a write confirmation, which is where the edges to Joule Work and Agent workspaces hold. The second half is about the guardrails he had AI choose for the project it then had to live inside: tests and coverage, type safety, static checks, dependency and secret scanning, blocking on commit, on push and in CI.published 2026-10-01
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

One OpenAPI specification covering business partners, sales orders, material stock, billing and purchase requisitions is uploaded as an MCP server artifact, deployed to integration cell with XSUAA inbound authentication, and registered as an MCP connector; the destination behind it is then switched from basic authentication to principal propagation, and the Cloud Connector monitor shows the same question arriving as the presenter's own user.

Beyond Basic AI Error Handling in SAP CPI - A Rules-First Architecture with HANA Cloud LearningBeyond Basic AI Error Handling in SAP CPI - A Rules-First Architecture with HANA Cloud LearningBuilds a rules-first error-diagnosis pipeline on Cloud Integration in SAP Integration Suite: a Groovy classifier resolves known failures — auth, timeout, malformed payload — deterministically, and only genuinely novel errors reach an LLM through the AI Adapter, after a sanitizer script replaces every payload leaf value with a typed placeholder before it leaves the tenant. SAP HANA Cloud, reached over JDBC, holds a fingerprinted dedup cache and an accumulating table of past diagnoses. It also documents the AI Adapter configuration — Advanced mode, a Bearer-prefixed Secure Parameter, and a connection/processing URL split — needed to reach a non-SAP OpenAI-compatible endpoint, found by the author to be undocumented.Krishna_Karthik, published 2026-06-11

How to Use n8n for Agentic Integrations and Cool InsightsHow to Use n8n for Agentic Integrations and Cool InsightsA Devtoberfest 2026 session on one use case built with n8n, the workflow automation tool SAP announced a partnership with in May 2026: judging the attachments of an automotive warranty claim. A Fiori upload table carries named evidence rows — this line is the invoice, this one the quote — and each uploaded file goes as base64 to an n8n webhook together with the claim context: the position and diagnosis codes, the parts, the amounts and the conversation with the dealer. The flow splits PDF from image, tries text extraction before falling back to a vision prompt, and calls Anthropic's Sonnet with a prompt that names the role, the input, the scoring rules and the response shape; the demo shows a matching invoice scoring 95%, an unrelated dent-removal invoice scoring 5% with the mismatches listed, and a photograph of a rusted suspension arm accepted while an engine bay is rejected against the same claim. The second half is the n8n editor itself — nodes, credentials, the test trace with each node's input and output — and the closing advice is human-in-the-loop flows at the edges of a process rather than automatic adjudication inside it.SAP Developers, published 2026-09-25
Integrate CAP application as outbound channel for SAP Document AIIntegrate CAP application as outbound channel for SAP Document AIDocument AI will call you back when extraction finishes, and the callback is where this goes wrong: the CAP application has to accept an unauthenticated POST from outside without dropping CSRF protection for everything else.

SAP Document AISAP Document AISAP's reference architecture for SAP Document AI, first as SAP composes the service on BTP for document extraction: OCR, pretrained models, customer-defined schemas and LLM calls through SAP AI Core and its Prompt Registry in one pipeline, with tenant-isolated persistence in SAP HANA Cloud, PostgreSQL and an object store. Its scenario pages then lay out a solution in three layers: intake through Outlook and SharePoint inbound channels, the workspace UI, the Joule Work mobile app or the upload API; classification and extraction with a confidence score per field, automatic confirmation above a threshold and review of the rest in the workspace; and posting through outbound channels, directly to a REST API, through an SAP Integration Suite flow, or through a CAP service that maps the fields and calls SAP S/4HANA over OData. Enrichment beyond the service's own master data lookup is left to a CAP application or an Integration Suite flow triggered from an outbound channel, and direct API posting leaves error handling, retries and monitoring to the application.published 2026-06-03

What a Second Document AI Workshop Taught Me About GovernanceWhat a Second Document AI Workshop Taught Me About GovernanceFrom questions raised at a second SAP Document AI workshop: the retention period for extracted data is a setting in the service's administration rather than a fixed property, with the source file deleted after processing and the decommissioning period for the extracted data configured to the customer's own policy. It also draws a boundary readers kept merging: Document AI extracts across languages but does not translate, so turning a document into a reviewer's own language is a separate step, pointing on BTP at SAP Translation Hub.Nicolas_BacaStorni, published 2026-08-25
Why Our First Document AI Exercise Was a Résumé, Not an InvoiceWhy Our First Document AI Exercise Was a Résumé, Not an InvoiceWorking through a SAP Document AI workshop, the author explains why its exercises teach extraction on a résumé before an invoice: a résumé has no stable layout to map fields against, so it forces the point that the tool extracts from a written description of a schema rather than from position-matched templates. Describing the schema is shown to carry real judgment — what a missing end date should become, what a vague field name like "number" costs the model, who in a company should decide these things — and the piece argues that preparing for a project is chiefly a business task of writing down knowledge that otherwise stays in people's heads.Mariano_BacaStorni, published 2026-09-03

In the samples the model selects the tool and does not generate the interface, the prebuilt kind of generative UI, and the subject is the server side of MCP servers: register the resource, link it from the tool's _meta.ui.resourceUri, return text content as a fallback beside structuredContent, call callServerTool() only for tools of the server that owns the app, and send a message to the host when another server such as ARC-1 has to act. It stops at the host, whose support differs by client and whose iframe sandbox is not a complete security model, and Joule support for MCP Apps could not be verified at the time of writing.published 2026-07-13
