Course Overview and What You'll Make

This course takes you from the four terms people mix up to a running, tested, limited agent that does one real job for a business. Every lesson ends with an exercise that has a pass condition, so you always know whether you're done.

The people, companies and numbers in this lesson are made up. Check any figure against your own situation before you rely on it.

Five Deliverables

• A scored list of five use cases and the one you chose.
• One working skill (a SKILL.md file) with a six-input test table.
• One agent design on a single page: role, inputs, tools, limits, review points.
• A results table that compares time and quality before and after.
• A 30-day rollout plan with a scorecard.

Who You'll Follow

Maya is a bookkeeper who serves small clients. She is made up. You'll follow her through the course: her skill, her tests, her mistakes. Use your own work in the exercises, with synthetic or redacted data until you've read the security lesson.

How To Use It

Free lessons are written to be read with a model open beside you. You can use any assistant that supports skills or custom instructions. Where a product detail matters, the lesson says 'as of October 2026' so you know it can change.

Exercise

• Write down the one task you want to improve and how long it takes you now.
• Pass condition: one sentence that names the task, the weekly time it costs and who reads the result.

What Changed (Dated Notes)

• October 2026: first full edition with the sales track, six module checks and worked cost and measurement examples.
• Skill limits and where skills live are stated as of October 2026 and can change. Check your product's current documentation.
