AI Agents & Automation
The 2026 skill — design autonomous AI agents that plan, use tools and complete real work end to end.
About this course
Agents are where AI stops answering and starts doing. This course teaches the full agentic stack: tool use and function calling, planning loops, memory, multi-agent orchestration, and the guardrails that keep autonomous systems safe. You build progressively more capable agents each week — a research agent, a data agent, a workflow agent — and the capstone ships an agent that automates a real business process.
Who it's for: Developers comfortable with Python and LLM APIs who want to build the systems companies are hiring for right now.
