Full-Time Report: Build with Code, Our UiPath Coded Agent Deep-Dive

The whole planet is watching one fixture this week. Spain and Argentina meet in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final on 19 July at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey — the last kick of the first-ever 48-team, three-country tournament (Source: FIFA).

Three days before that whistle, we ran a fixture of our own.

On Wednesday, Build with Code: UiPath Coded Agent Deep-Dive kicked off at the Symprio ground in Bangsar South, Kuala Lumpur — a hands-on UiPath Community meetup where the ball was a text prompt and every goal was a working automation. No slides marathon. No drag-and-drop. Just builders, laptops, and UiPath coded agents doing the running.

Here's the match report. ⚽

📋 The Teamsheet: A Strong Turnout

Let's start with the line-up, because it's the first bit of good news.

35 people registered. 17 showed up. That's just shy of a 50% turnout — and for a free, in-person, Wednesday-evening tech meetup, a roughly one-in-two show rate is a genuinely strong result. Anyone who has run a community event knows the gap between "clicked register" and "actually walked through the door" is where most events lose their crowd. Ours filled the stands.

Seventeen builders is also the right size for this kind of session. Enough energy in the room to feel like a match; small enough that everyone got on the ball instead of watching from the bench.

⚽ First Half: Prompt, Then Build with UiPath Coded Agents

Then we got into the real game: turning plain English into running UiPath workflows.

Every attendee got hands on the ball. The play was simple to describe and genuinely fun to do — point an AI coding agent (think Claude Code or the Gemini CLI) at UiPath, describe the automation you want in natural language, and watch it get built and run. The connective tissue that makes this possible is the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the open standard, introduced by Anthropic in late 2024, that lets an AI agent discover and securely call external tools instead of relying on a tangle of one-off integrations.

The UiPath Platform has native MCP support, so UiPath artifacts — RPA workflows, activities, processes — can be exposed as tools an agent can call (Source: UiPath). UiPath calls MCP "the universal connector," and it's an apt description: it's the pass that turns a smart conversational partner into an action-oriented player that can actually put the ball in the net.

In plain English: attendees typed what they wanted, the agent talked to UiPath over MCP, and automations got built. That's a very different game from clicking through an activity panel — and watching it click for the first time is the moment the whole room leans in.

☕ Half-Time: Teh Tarik and a Breather

Every good match needs a half-time.

We broke for snacks and hot teh — the most Malaysian half-time refreshment there is — and let the room do what community events do best: talk. This is the unsexy, high-value part of any meetup. The best questions of the night didn't come during the structured build; they came over a warm cup, when someone turned to the person next to them and said, "wait, could this thing do my month-end reconciliation?"

Refuelled and re-caffeinated, we headed back out for the second half.

🥅 Second Half: The Kahoot Shootout

If the build was the run of play, Kahoot was our penalty shootout — nerves, speed, and a leaderboard that changed on every question.

The room lit up. Phones out, reflexes tested, friendly trash-talk flowing. And when the final buzzer went, we had ourselves a podium.

A well-earned hat-tip to Khairah for topping the table, and to Jason Chai and Aqil Amsyar for rounding out the podium. Golden boot goes to the quickest thumbs in Bangsar South. 🏆

🤝 The Post-Match Huddle

We closed the way every good squad does — with a huddle and a team photo.

A short open discussion wrapped things up: what surprised people, where they'd point coded agents next, and the honest limits of the approach. Then everyone crowded in for the group photo — the full-time snapshot — and we called it a match.

💎 Why We Run Fixtures Like This

A quick word on why Symprio spends its Wednesday evenings this way.

Symprio is a product engineering practice, not just an advisory one — we build and ship AI-enabled products for regulated industries. And the fastest way to understand where enterprise automation is heading is to put your hands on the ball, not read the match preview.

Agentic automation is the direction of travel. The shift from "configure the workflow by hand" to "describe the outcome and let an agent assemble it" is real, and MCP is a big part of why it's suddenly practical. Hands-on beats theory. You don't learn to take a penalty by watching one; the same is true of coded agents — which is exactly why the session was build-first. And community is a team sport. The KL automation scene is full of sharp builders, and sessions like this are how we all get better together.

That build-first instinct is the same one we bring to client work through our co-build delivery model — pairing with your team to ship the first agentic automation to production, then handing over the keys.
