STANFORD JUST RELEASED A FREE COURSE ON ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL SKILLS IN AI RIGHT NOW: BUILDING SELF-IMPROVING AGENTS.
The entire curriculum is focused on self-correction. It skips the basic API wrappers and gets straight into the mechanics of frontier reasoning.
If you want to understand how autonomous systems actually learn from their actions, the syllabus covers the exact stack being used today:
→ Test-time compute and verifiers
→ Constitutional AI and RL
→ Planning, memory, and tool execution
→ Architectures for deep research agents
It is highly project-based.
You watch the lectures, build alongside the researchers teaching them, and walk away with a functional self-improving architecture.
I've put the full playlist in the 🧵↓

I've had my copies for a few weeks now, and it looks like orders are being shipped with more regularity now. 🎉
I hope you find the book useful!

Anthropic hired this engineer at $250K-$750K a year because he knows how to build harnesses for multi-agent systems
In this 15-minute workshop, he shows exactly how to build one from scratch
AI → Agents → Harness → Loops → Graphs
step 1 → start with the Claude Agent SDK - the harness handles loops, context, and sandboxing
step 2 → separate the brain from the hands - reasoning in one place, tools in a sandbox, 60% faster to first token
step 3 → run it server-side and log every step - close your laptop and it keeps running, crashes resume from the log
step 4 → make failure cheap - retry dead sandboxes and replay lost context instead of starting over
step 5 → turn yesterday's logs into new memory and skills - the harness wakes up smarter
Anthropic calls this "dreaming"
Most people spend weeks building this by hand
You don't have to

I’m excited to finally announce the newest edition my Stanford course 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿. It has been 9 months in the making.
Last November, with the release of Claude Opus 4.5, coding agents experienced a step function improvement in capability. We all felt it. The LLMs were more powerful, could reason for longer, solve harder tasks.
This year’s iteration of my course reflects the 2026 metamorphosis of software engineering.
My core belief is simple: AI-native developers of the LLM era are going to become the most important members of any software organization. I have designed my course to train this next generation of engineers.
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱
First, 85% of my Fall 2025 class material is being thrown out. The Fall 2026 syllabus reflects the core capabilities AI-native engineers must have: agent skills, advanced context engineering, MCP portals, agent-ready codebase principles, agentic code review, security, parallelizing background agents, software factories, and more.
Second, I am going to teach my students how to have software taste. Every student will be required to ship pull requests to production-grade, real-world codebases. The course is collaborating with the top open-source AI repos who will offer support and mentorship to students on how to meaningfully contribute to their projects.
This has never been done before in any university course so I am incredibly grateful to our OSS Partners: @browserbase, @HeyGen, @CopilotKit, @semgrep, @OpenHandsDev, @milvusio, @marimo_io, Pi, @crewAIInc, @warpdotdev, @vercel, @cmux, @arizeai, @UnslothAI, and @anyscalecompute.
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲
I’m fortunate to again have AI software engineering leaders and founders as guest speakers to share their learnings from building top coding agent products. Thank you to @leerob from @cursor_ai, @bcherny of @claudeai code, @EnoReyes of @FactoryAI, @silasalberti of @cognition, @0xine of @semgrep, Rajesh Bhatia of @Cloudflare , @amasad of @Replit, and @eladgil.
All resources will be available online. All classes will be available to the public.
9/22 on Stanford campus. See you in class.

Creator of Claude Code just dropped a free masterclass on agent engineering with Opus 5 from 0% to 100%:
“80% of our engineers are using self-improving loops”
10% → 3:38 - why they deleted 80% of the system prompt
30% →6:55 - delete your CLAUDE.md every 6 months
55% →17:44 - one prompt, 11 days, entire codebase rewritten
80% → 21:59 - the prompt that's been running for 15 days
100% →25:27 - two promts that spawn 1,000 agents
most people are still writing longer prompts - he's deleting them and running 1,000 agents instead

Boris Cherny just dropped 7-page PDF on Graph Engineering - how 4 Claude prompts replace 4 trained ML models
The twist: your agent's memory dies with the context window. A knowledge graph makes it permanent - and now you build one with prompts, not ML engineers.
here's 4 prompts, step by step:
prompt 1 → extraction - Haiku pulls entities + relations - one call per doc - no NER, no labeled data
prompt 2 → resolution - Sonnet merges duplicates string matching will never catch - two different names, same person
prompt 3 → summarization - Sonnet builds profiles from multiple sources - facts that never appeared in the same document
prompt 4 → querying - feed the graph to Sonnet - every answer cites a specific edge - no hallucination
how to wire this into agents today:
step 1 → shared memory for multi-agent teams - workers read/write one graph - orchestrator's context stays clean
step 2 → grounding layer for eval loops - evaluator checks facts against graph edges, not vibes
the result: one Pydantic schema replaces weeks of ML training per domain - precision 1.00 - 10k docs cost under $10
this 7-page PDF is what comes after loop engineering

Two Anthropic seniors just made Karpathy's loop 1000x better with "Graph Engineering" - dropped 11-page PDF
the shift: the agentic systems got 1000x better the moment you wired agents into a graph
here's the playbook in 6 steps:
step 1 → build one loop: generate, critique, revise - one self-review cycle beats a smarter model with none
step 2 → add tools: search, code execution, database - thinking without tools is hallucinating
step 3 → go parallel: spin up agents in separate worktrees - same repo, different branches, no conflicts
step 4 → add a graph: agents write findings as typed nodes and edges - not transcripts - every claim keeps its source
step 5 → ground your evaluator: it checks claims against graph edges, not vibes - "Triple not found" beats "seems off"
step 6 → the graph survives every session - your agents stop rebuilding context from scratch
the result: Karpathy ran 1 agent in 1 direction - this system runs 1,000 with shared memory - same model, it's the architecture
read this 11-page PDF and paste it into your Claude - you won't regret it
