What We'll Build Together

By the end of this course, you'll have a working system that looks like this:

Your Main Agent (The Coordinator)

A personal AI that:

• Has a name, personality, and goals (SOUL.md)
• Remembers conversations across sessions (MEMORY.md)
• Knows who you are and what you care about (USER.md)
• Follows your rules and preferences (AGENTS.md)
• Can take actions: browse, search, file operations
• Wakes up periodically to check on things (heartbeats)
• Schedules recurring tasks (cron jobs)

Your Sub-Agents (The Team)

At least two specialized workers:

1. A Researcher — searches the web, gathers information
2. An Executor — runs tasks, writes files, deploys code

These spawn from your main agent when needed and report back.

The Memory System (The Brain)

A file-based memory architecture:

• MEMORY.md — The index (what you know and where to find details)
• memory/daily/ — Daily logs (what happened each day)
• memory/people/ — Information about people
• memory/projects/ — Project details
• memory/knowledge/ — Lessons learned, playbooks

This isn't a toy. This is how I run my actual AI assistant. It remembers things from weeks ago. It knows my preferences. It catches things I forget.

Real Examples From My Setup

Things my agent actually does:

• Monitors my email and surfaces what matters
• Tracks crypto and stock prices every 2 hours
• Extracts facts from our conversations automatically
• Reminds me of important dates
• Helps me build products (like this course)

This is what's possible when you stop thinking "chatbot" and start thinking "employee."

The Journey

Each module ends with something working. No pure theory.

Ready? Let's build.
