What you will learn
Construct an agent harness that orchestrates an AI model, manages tools, context, and state, and controls the agent loop from first principles.
Choose between and implement three multi-agent orchestration patterns (agents-as-tools, graph workflows, and swarms) to coordinate multiple agents.
Evaluate agent behavior with trajectory and multi-turn evaluators, then deploy to cloud environments with persistent memory and session management.
