Full-Day Workshop — Build Your Agentic Engineering Factory

Every developer has tried Cursor or Claude Code. But the same model produces wildly different results depending on the system around it: context, hooks, quality gates, feedback loops, governance. That system is the factory. Most teams don't have one.

In one focused day — the day after the case conference (25 Feb) — you'll build yours. Live coding demos to show you. A hands-on guide from the practitioners behind the agentic factory methodology. A customer voice to ground you. Peers from teams like yours to think with you.

Bring your own harness

Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or any other working agentic setup with a model. We build the factory around it. No working harness in the morning means you can't participate. A setup check is sent to all attendees one week before the workshop.

What you take home

Real agentic workflows, not toy demos

You work with actual production setups — CLAUDE.md, MCP, sub-agents, context engineering. The internals, not just the surface.

Patterns from real customer factories

What works, what fails, and when an agent is the wrong answer entirely. The typical mistakes your teams will make — and how to prevent them.

A starter kit you own on after the workshop

You leave with a concrete 30-day rollout plan, built during the session. CLAUDE.md, rules, skills, and MCP configs — on your laptop, ready to deploy.

Practitioners at your level

Peer exchange with developers and EMs dealing with the same shift. A network that keeps talking after the event.

The format

No passive listening, no surface-level panels. You build real context architecture during the sessions and leave with it on your laptop. One day, four blocks, one outcome.

What the day looks like {#agenda}

One day. One goal: you leave knowing what to do.

Morning — Lay the factory floor.
The day opens with a live coding demo on foundations: context layer, environment, hooks, sandboxing. From there, you work in small groups of to build the foundation of your own factory on your laptop.

Midday — Wire the pipeline.
After lunch, a second live coding demo shows the pipeline end-to-end: planning, sub-agents, fast feedback, determinism. You then wire your own pipeline in the same small group, with hands-on guidance throughout.

Afternoon — Run it, hear from one who's done it.
Hear a live war story from production: what worked, what failed, what they'd do differently. You then run your factory end-to-end and draft your personal rollout plan.

Built for developers and the people who lead them

This is a practitioner-first day. Engineering Managers and senior developers who want to build systems — not just use tools.

Engineering Manager · Senior Developer · Software Architect · Staff Engineer · Tech Lead · Principal Engineer · Product Engineer · Head of Engineering

The outcome

You leave with your factory. Live. Working. Yours.
