Teach Your Coding Agent to Prove It's Done: WorkOS on Verification Loops, CLI Checks and LLM Judges
AI Engineer · youtube · 2026-10-18
AI Engineer published a workshop with WorkOS engineers Nick Nisi and Zack Proser on building verification loops so coding agents check their own work — tackling the gap between "the agent says it's done" and "it's actually done."
Topics covered:
- Setting self-checkable goals for agents
- Automated verification via CLI health checks and browser snapshot diffs
- LLM judges and eval baselines
- Making everything feedback-loopable so a failure drives the next fix instead of landing on your desk
Includes a live demo app ("Midnight Snack Club") and a repo to follow along — useful for anyone building agent workflows.
