Most AI security agents are wrappers around fixed scripts. Agent-Smith takes a different approach: reusable skills encode security methodology, while the model determines how to investigate, chain tools, validate findings, and select its next action.

This session presents the architecture and lessons behind Agent-Smith, an open-source, MCP-enabled autonomous penetration-testing agent spanning web, cloud, Active Directory, source-code review, threat modeling, and AI red teaming and more. We will examine MCP tool exposure, methodology-as-code, autonomous skill chaining, model portability, ephemeral Docker sandboxes, and server-side controls for cost, execution time, and tool calls.

A practical demonstration will show Agent-Smith progressing from reconnaissance to a verified finding, reproducible proof of concept, remediation guidance, and code patch. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns for building capable agents without sacrificing isolation, observability, human oversight, or control.
