Anthropic Launches 4-Hour Agent Course
Roger_M_Taylor · x · 2026-07-17
Anthropic has released a comprehensive, 4-hour course on building agentic systems from scratch.
Topics covered include:
- Building, running, and monitoring agents
- Evals for Claude AI agents
- MCP, /hooks, Claude.md
- Long-running agentic loops
- Building skills for Claude agents
The poster considers this highly valuable, capable of replacing multiple paid agent engineering courses. The latter half of the post shifts to promoting a trading-focused AI agent, but the core message remains Anthropic's tutorial.
