- The agentic loop and stop conditionsHow a tool-using agent cycles between the model and your code, and every way that loop is supposed to end.10 min
- Agent SDK basicsEmbed Claude Code's agent loop in your own Python or TypeScript program, with limits, permissions and a result you can check.10 min
- Orchestrator–worker and parallel subagentsSplit a task across focused subagents that run in parallel, each with its own context and tools, and keep the fan-out bounded.10 min
- Handoffs and failure isolationWrite briefs a fresh subagent can act on, get structured reports back, and keep one worker's failure from sinking the whole run.9 min
- Human-in-the-loop approvalsPut a person in front of the calls that matter, using the permission order, canUseTool, hooks and plan mode.10 min
- When not to use agentsWorkflows, single calls and plain code often beat an agent. How to choose the simplest design that works.9 min
