Verified project record

shareAI-lab/learn-claude-code

A 0-to-1 educational project teaching harness engineering through 20 progressive lessons, showing how to build the operational environment around an LLM step-by-step. It is designed for developers who want to understand agent capabilities conceptually rather than just copying and pasting source code.

Project overview

Project type: AI Agent · AI Coding
Use cases: Coding & Development · Learning & Education
Deployment: Refer to project documentation
License: MIT

Best for

Developers and educators who want a structured, conceptual understanding of agent loops and harness engineering.
Learners who benefit from standalone runnable code alongside narrative explanations.

Key capabilities

A tutorial track of 20 chapters that each add one harness mechanism to an agent loop, starting from basic tool use to comprehensive agent assembly.
Each chapter includes a complete narrative README, translations, and a standalone runnable code.py implementation.

Limitations and risks

The project intentionally simplifies or omits some production mechanisms to keep the learning path clear.
Requires coding knowledge and relies on a paid external service for LLM inference.

Getting started

Clone the repository, install dependencies via pip, copy the .env.example file to .env, configure the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, and execute the first lesson using python s01_agent_loop/code.py.

README: This repository is a 0-to-1 harness engineering learning project: it teaches how to build the working environment around an agent model.
README: The word "agent" has been hijacked by an entire prompt-plumbing industry.
README: What they produce are Rube Goldberg machines -- over-engineered, brittle, procedural rule pipelines with an LLM wedged in as a glorified text-completion node. That is not an agent.
