Agents, from zero
Understand what an AI agent is, how it works, what defines it, and where it is going. Twelve short chapters with a story, one plain idea, a kitchen-table picture, a worked example, a no-code exercise and a self-check. No code, no math.
$49 one-time
Chapters 1, 2 and 3 are the free preview: what an agent is, the loop it runs, and where its intelligence comes from. The rest covers the prompt stack, context, memory, AGENTS.md, soul.md, the map of agent files, tools, MCP and skills, many agents, guardrails and where this is headed.
