Neo4j Live: NODES AI Agenda with Aura Agents

Let’s explore the NODES AI agenda with Aura Agents and turn a packed event schedule into a personalized experience. Spin up an agent, tailor your agenda to your timezone and technical interests, and refine it through natural conversation.
Connect via MCP directly in Claude, inside VS Code, or through a web interface – and shape your NODES AI journey the same way you build software: interactively.

In this Neo4j Live session you will see:
• How to model event data as a graph (sessions, speakers, tracks, prerequisites, use cases)
• How to design Aura Agent tools using Cypher templates and similarity search
• Why vector indexes and session IDs are the backbone of a reliable agent
• How to expose the agent over MCP and use it directly in Claude
• Real-time demos showing conflict-free schedule building and speaker discovery
• Lessons learned: prompt tuning, tool chaining, and avoiding common pitfalls
