This intermediate path teaches you how to build agentic systems with Claude using pure TypeScript and direct API interactions. You will work through core patterns for structuring prompts, managing conversations, integrating tools, and coordinating multi-step workflows. The path covers practical techniques for extending an agent’s capabilities through custom tools and iterative tool use. You will also explore how to decompose complex tasks, route work to the right process, and design agents that can collaborate through orchestration and delegation. You will learn how to improve performance by running conversations, tool calls, and specialist agents concurrently with TypeScript async patterns. By the end, you will be prepared to design and implement framework-free Claude agents that can handle complex tasks with greater speed and structure.
