🛠️ Building with AI, Agents & MCP

​Langflow Launches 1.5 with Support for Docling and Windows​

Rodrigo Nader

Langflow 1.5 brings a simplified, stable foundation for building AI workflows. With clean core components, improved execution, and a smoother UI, Langflow keeps evolving for real-world use. Langflow Desktop is now available for Windows, and the new Docling Bundle takes document processing to a new level.

​How to Create Secure AI Applications​

Tejas Kumar

You’ve built an impressive AI agent. It can query databases, call external APIs, and even process payments. But with every API call to a third-party LLM provider, you're potentially broadcasting sensitive data—API keys, PII, financial information—into a black box. Relying on the vendor's privacy policy is not a security strategy. It’s time to move beyond the default and engineer security into your AI applications from the ground up.

🧑‍💻 Code & Libraries

Great news in generative AI in the last week, advanced or experimental models from Google and OpenAI scored gold medals in the International Mathematical Olympiad. I never liked taking maths tests, so I'm very happy to see LLMs take up that challenge for me. This edition of AI++ looks at what makes up an agent under the hood, considers the parts of MCP you might not have thought about (LOL security), and has a couple of pieces on the way we should think about what we're building with AI...
