- Own laptop or desktop with Claude Code or OpenCode installed, plus at least an active Claude Pro subscription
- What you'll learn
- Ship a working feature on a starter repo — tests, hooks, CI green from minute one
- Recognise the failure modes of AI-generated code in your own work
- Practise test-first with an agent without writing fake-passing tests

Programme
Day 1 Quality engineering with agents
- 01
Agents in your SDLC: where they fit, where they break
- Where an agent earns its place in the SDLC, and where it doesn't
- What an agent actually is vs. chat vs. automation
- Quality stakes: every agent change is a code change that ships
- 02
Failure modes of AI-generated code
- Hallucination, silent regression, false-green builds
- Scope drift and undeclared rewrites
- How to spot each before they ship
- 03
Test-first with agents
- The TDD loop with an agent driver
- When tests precede code, when they don't, why it matters
- Tests that prove behaviour vs. tests that satisfy the model
- 04
Hooks + quality gates
- Pre-commit checks: lint, format, type-check
- Custom hooks for agent-specific risks
- Fast feedback loops that don't get bypassed
- 05
Lab: build your first feature with quality discipline
- End-to-end on a starter repo: brief → tests → code → review
- Run today's quality stack against your own changes
- Cohort feedback before Day 2
- 06
Regression strategy + governance basics
- Golden tests, snapshot guards, property-based checks, mutation testing, etc.
- Stress-testing agent output on real edges
- What a sensible team review policy looks like
Day 2 Agent mechanics + capstone
- 07
Context architecture
- CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md design
- Rules files and project-wide configuration
- Hierarchy: user, project, local overrides
- 08
Context window mechanics
- Compression and summaries
- Priming and recency bias
- Strategies for long sessions
- 09
Using MCP servers
- MCP overview
- Connect existing servers (Filesystem, GitHub, Linear, etc.)
- Scope and permission best practices
- 10
Intro to Skills & Rules
- When to write a skill
- When to write a rule
- Your first own skill
- 11
Ship a feature end-to-end
- Implement a feature on a starter repo from a brief
- Apply Day-1 quality stack + Day-2 context tooling (MCP, skills, rules)
- Demo and review with the cohort
