Workshops

Agentic AI workshopsLeave with a working part of a production agent system.

Four live hours on a Saturday. The core is built in front of you, you build the rest alongside, then fit it to your company's tools. You keep the code and the recording. A seat is $297, paid once on Maven.

Design Agentic AI Systems for Engineers

WorkshopBuildcamp week 1, Architect

An architecture for one real workflow at your company that you can take to a design review: roles, models, context, tools, approvals, failure plan and budget.

4 hours

Week 1Architect
  • Roles and modelsOne job per agent, a model chosen for that job, and a token budget.
  • OrchestrationA queue agents pick work from, with hand-offs a person can follow.
  • Context and memoryRetrieval with sources, memory across sessions, prompts laid out for the cache.
  • Tool callingTyped tools that act in GitHub, Linear and Google.
Week 2Build
  • MCP serversEvery tool behind an MCP gateway, scoped to the role that needs it.
  • Durable executionRuns that resume after a crash and never repeat a write.
  • Human in the loopA person approves anything that cannot be undone.
Week 3Secure and deploy
  • Identity and permissionsEach agent signs in as itself and acts on behalf of a user.
  • LLM gatewayRouting, caching and a budget on every model call.
  • Traces, evals and costEvery run traced, scored and charged to the agent that made it.
  • Multi-tenancyEach team or customer kept apart, in data and in the bill.
Week 4Govern and extend
  • Policy as codeRules checked on every action, not written in a document.
  • Signed skillsNew roles built from reviewed, signed skills.

Deploy Agentic AI Systems for Engineers

WorkshopBuildcamp week 3, Secure and deploy

Questions

What engineers and their managers ask before they book.

Which workshop should I take first?

Design comes before deploy. If your team already has agents running and the questions are about security, cost and monitoring, start with deploy.

I already build agents. Is this too basic?

The workshops are aimed at engineers who have built at least one agent and now need to design or run a system that others will review and pay for.

Do I need to bring my own project?

No. The core is built from a shared starting point. The last block fits it to a workflow from your company, so bring one if you have it.

What if I miss part of the day?

Every block is recorded on Maven, so you can catch up on anything you missed.

Can my employer pay?

Yes. Maven gives you a receipt your company can expense. To train a whole team, see the private team workshops.

Is a workshop part of the buildcamp?

Each workshop covers one buildcamp week in a single day. The buildcamp adds the other weeks, the weekly projects and a demo day.

Want the whole system, with deadlines?

Agentic AI Buildcamp for Engineers runs 16 November to 11 December: a project each week, live Q&A and a demo day.
