Hands-on workshops for software developers learning to work effectively with AI agents.
Developed and delivered by Akhil Kumar, CEO & Co-founder, Apra Labs.
| Basic | Advanced | |
|---|---|---|
| Audience | Developers new to agentic AI | Developers with hands-on agentic AI experience |
| Duration | ~2 hours | ~3 hours |
| Labs | 4 labs | 7 labs |
| Focus | The core agentic workflow: Onboard → Plan → Execute → Verify | Memory, skills, MCP, hooks, autonomous loops, overnight harnesses, parallel subagents |
| You'll build | A React frontend on a live REST API, entirely agent-driven | Production-grade agentic patterns on a real codebase |
| Prerequisite | None | Basic workshop + hands-on experience |
Both workshops were recorded live with ~20 developers attending each session. Full sessions — not highlights.

Clone the demo project used in both workshops:
git clone https://github.com/Apra-Labs/agentic-workshop-demo.gitThen open the workshop folder for detailed setup instructions:
An AI agent doesn't just answer questions — it reads your codebase, writes code, runs tests, commits changes, and course-corrects based on results. These workshops teach you the patterns and guardrails that make that powerful rather than dangerous:
- How to onboard an agent to an unfamiliar codebase
- How to plan collaboratively and set guardrails before execution
- How to verify agent output — because fast isn't the same as correct
- How to give agents bounded autonomy so they work while you sleep
Apra Labs is an edge-to-cloud specialist — video processing, machine learning, embedded AI, and computer vision since 2017. Our open frameworks like ApraPipes give teams battle-tested production infrastructure to build on.
Agentic AI has transformed how we work across all of it. These workshops — and open tools like apra-fleet — are our way of giving back: sharing what we've learned using AI agents on real, demanding production codebases so others can hit the ground running.
The HTML presentations are self-contained interactive files with speaker notes, animated builds, and live code examples. Download and open locally — do not use GitHub's file viewer.

Basic — participants need Node.js 18+, Git, and Claude Code installed. Ask them to clone the basic_workshop_start branch of the demo repo.
Advanced — participants need Node.js 20+, Git, GitHub CLI, jq, and Claude Code. Ask them to fork agentic-workshop-demo and enable GitHub Actions on their fork before the session. The VS Code Workshop Profile sets up the recommended screen-share layout.
