A short path into the course if agent architecture is new to you.

What you need

You should be comfortable browsing files, editing text, and following step-by-step instructions. Coding helps with the build labs, but you don't need it for the architecture path.

If a term is unfamiliar, use the glossary. Good first terms are agent, tool, API, and JSON.

Suggested order

  1. Read Task 1.1. Learn the basic agent loop.
  2. Open its study deck. Review the idea as slides or flashcards.
  3. Practice Task 1.1. Read why every answer is right or wrong.
  4. Try Lab 1. Choose the architecture path if you don't want to write code.
