In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has advanced rapidly across many fields, and agent technologies—especially those enabling code generation and workflow automation—have emerged as powerful tools that open up new development styles. In the field of computational materials science as well, leveraging such agents offers significant potential for improving development efficiency and fostering creative ideas.
In this hackathon, we will focus on using AI agents to support code development and streamline various tasks. Participants will experience development workflows powered by AI agents, including code generation and refinement, debugging assistance, task automation, and information gathering, gaining a firsthand sense of how much these tools can accelerate everyday research and development.
We will also introduce advanced applications of agent technologies, such as multi-agent workflows in which multiple agents collaborate and interact. The exchanges among agents with distinct roles can generate new perspectives and approaches, opening up opportunities for creative idea generation and more innovative problem-solving.
By working on these activities as a team, participants will be able to deepen their understanding while sharing ideas and techniques, enabling more efficient learning of agent technologies. In addition, progressing through team-based project work will naturally help develop practical skills and strengthen collaborative problem-solving abilities.
