Introducing the Splunk Agent Launchpad! Let’s face it—your team is busy. Between managing alerts, digging through investigations, and constant context-switching, it’s hard to stay ahead of the noise. What if you could turn your existing operational knowledge into custom AI agents that do the heavy lifting for you? And the best part? No coding required. Watch this exclusive look at the Splunk Agent Launchpad. We’re showing you how to build, deploy, and manage AI agents that help you investigate, enrich, summarize, and act—all without leaving the Splunk environment you already know and trust.

A deployment fails validation and the sync stops. Argo CD hands the report to AURA, which finds the wrong version, fixes it, and re-runs the sync. Normally, a failed sync means a person opens the application, reads the hook logs, and works out which value is wrong. Here, the sync fail hook sends AURA a short failure report and an incident ID over the agent-to-agent protocol, then exits. It does not say how to investigate or what to change.

AI can answer the question. But can it replace the mentor? Rob, Hanabel, and Webster discuss what junior developers need in the age of AI.
