Get hands-on experience building autonomous agent systems from scratch. We'll start with agent basics: state management, decision loops, and tool integration. You'll build a working agent that can use multiple tools and handle errors gracefully. We'll explore different agent architectures: reactive agents, planning agents, and multi-step reasoning patterns. Participants will code along with pre-configured environments. We'll discuss common failure modes and how to debug agent behavior. By the end, you'll have a solid foundation for building agents and know where to dive deeper for production systems. Come with a laptop and a Python 3.11 environment. You will leave with a running agent, a trace of every tool call it made, and a short list of the mistakes I made first so you can skip them.
