Archestra Hackathon: Turn workflows into MCP apps
Miserable_Fold4086 · reddit · 2026-07-20
Open-source AI platform Archestra is hosting a week-long online hackathon (July 22–29) with $2,250 in prizes. The core challenge is for developers to transform their weekly workflows into functional MCP applications.
The generated apps run in a sandboxed HTML interface and can connect to over 900 MCP servers like GitHub, Jira, and Slack. The platform supports staged builds with automated error feedback, and apps have no network access, relying entirely on MCP tools for data movement. Participants can bring their own API keys for major LLMs.
