The Drupal edition of **Talks On My Machine**, our online event series, was back.

Teams that run websites and digital platforms must keep up with fast-changing business needs, new channels, integrations with other systems and new regulations. Meanwhile AI is changing how websites are built and managed.

In three talks we showed how Drupal answers with open source tools:

- **AI Guardrails**: security, governance and control for AI inside Drupal;
- **Display Builder** by UI Suite: building pages with the components of the design system, without code;
- **AI agents with MCP**: from the Tool API to the no-code interface, with a customer assistant built step by step.

## The program.

Three talks and audience questions, from 9:30 to 13:00.

- **9:30** Introduction, Brian Atzori (MC @ SparkFabrik)
- **9:45** AI Guardrails: Bringing Security, Governance, and Control to Drupal's AI (and more!), Luca Lusso (Lead Developer)
- **10:30** Display Builder, the Native Visual Builder for Design Systems, by UI Suite, Michaël Fanini (Guest Speaker)
- **11:15** AI Agents in Drupal: From Tool API to No-Code Integrating MCP, Roberto Peruzzo (Software Developer)
- **12:00** Q&A and Closing

## Speakers and talks.

The talks on AI and design systems in Drupal, with the people who gave them.

- **AI Guardrails: Bringing Security, Governance, and Control to Drupal's AI (and more!)**: Luca Lusso (Lead Developer @ SparkFabrik)
- **Display Builder, the Native Visual Builder for Design Systems, by UI Suite**: Michaël Fanini (Guest Speaker | Presales engineer @ DropTeam | UI Suite initiative Co-leader)
  For many years, the UI Suite initiative team has been working with great commitment and passion to bring display creation to the forefront. The goal is to help Drupal catch up on this topic compared to other technologies like WordPress.

Today, UI Suite manages the core features (SDC, Icon API, Asset Libraries) and contrib modules (UI Patterns, UI Styles, UI Skins, UI Icons, UI Examples) to provide a complete and consistent way to package and map design systems with data in a no-code way through Drupal's user interface.

However, there remained a strange feeling of incompleteness. Display creation with UI Suite remained a fragmented experience, with many tools to use: Views, Layout Builder, Manage Display, Block Layout, and other parts of Drupal.

A year ago, we had a revelation! It was time to build the missing piece of our puzzle: Display Builder, a display creation tool that is:

- **Design system native**: fully utilizes design systems (components, style utilities, icons, themes, CSS variables...) directly in Drupal without the need for compatibility layers
- **Unified**: replaces Layout Builder for entity display, Block Layout for page display, Views' display creation feature, ...
- **Modern**: provides all the advanced features needed (drag and drop, dynamic previews, tree view, predefined templates, real-time collaboration, etc.)
- **Lightweight**: leverages HTMX and all existing APIs from Core modules (SDC, Icon) and UI Suite without any additional dependencies

After a presentation of UI Suite, the session focused mainly on live demos of Display Builder.
- **AI Agents in Drupal: From Tool API to No-Code Integrating MCP**: Roberto Peruzzo (Software Developer @ SparkFabrik)
  In this session, we saw AI Agents in action on real Drupal projects. The goal? Build a Customer Assistant capable of guiding users to the right product and notifying the team on Slack for each completed purchase.

We walked through the tech stack step by step, starting with a custom Tool built on the **Tool API** and focusing on how to keep code clean, documented and maintainable. Next, we showed how the **MCP Client** module integrates external Tools from an MCP Server directly into Drupal, and discussed best practices: why tool design, documentation and testing matter when working with AI.

We closed the loop by assembling the Agent through Drupal's no-code interface, showing how simple it is to put the pieces together while maintaining control, security, and clarity.
