What you'll learn

Design agents for your use case

Learn a design approach and methodology for decomposing work into reusable, high-performance digital workers.

Build agents in natural language

Configure an agent by describing your requirements in natural language with Claude Code (install before the session)

Activate agents in natural language

Call agents into action by describing your goal in natural language, and see agents work together to deliver the outcome

Why this topic matters

Building and activating agents no longer requires complex coding. Non-coders can leverage Claude Code to design and execute agents by describing requirements in natural language. Agents can work together to perform routine or complex tasks that streamline processes and boost productivity. You will leave the session with at least one agent you can activate immediately for your use case.
