Agentic AI is the new trendy term; it promises program autonomy and “intelligent” workflows. But integrating agentic systems into React applications introduces real challenges that most frameworks don’t solve: indefinite loops, stalled responses, unpredictable state updates, UI desynchronization, and missing guardrails. In this talk, I’ll share lessons from building agentic workflows and the production issues I ran into when non-deterministic behavior collided with frontend assumptions. You’ll learn practical patterns for making agents observable, controllable, and user-safe in a React UI.
