Why this topic matters
AI agents are powerful, but they're forgetful, inconsistent, and prone to making the same mistakes over and over.
In this workshop, Lauren will share the engineering skills framework used internally at Cursor and now open sourced as pstack. You'll learn how to equip AI with reusable playbooks, decision-making frameworks, review processes, and debugging workflows that improve output quality.
