From vibe coding to orchestrating agent systems — where the prompt stops working

Duration: 110 min

Module goals

• Recognize from the symptoms that a task has outgrown a single prompt, and name what that symptom needs instead of a prompt
• Break a task into steps and pick an executor for each: AI, AI with a tool, deterministic code/API, or a human
• Explain which decisions in a pipeline's architecture protect it from failure: small steps, idempotency, separating trigger and action
• Check an agent against the six blocks of production readiness, assign a problem to the right block, and name three Agent SDK settings that keep the agent within bounds: tools, permissions, and turn limit
• Write an agent specification before the code: honestly mark the gaps and tell a spec from a charter
