Ask HN: How to teach agentic AI? Please share your experience (ycombinator.com)
I started teaching agentic AI at our cooperative (Berlin). It is a one day intense workshop where I: <p>1. Introduce IntelliJ IDEA IDE and tools 2. Showcase my Unix-omnipotent educational open source AI agent called Claudine (which can basically do what Claude Code can do, but I already provided it in October 2024) 3. Go through glossary of AI-related terms 4. Explore demo code snippets gradually introducing more and more abstract concepts 5.

SuperPrompt (github.com/NeoVertex1)
This is a project that I decided to open source because I think it might help others understand AI agents. This prompt took me many months and is still in phase of forever beta. You will want to use this prompt with Claude (as custom instructions in the project knowledge) but it also work with other llms.
