Helping people set up the right way to work with AI.
A developer wanted to start building with AI tools and didn’t know where to begin. I helped him set up his environment, showed him how to actually work with the tools day to day, and we built something real together so it stuck.
The problem
Engineers who know how to code don’t automatically know how to ship with agentic tools. The leverage is in environment setup, prompting patterns, guardrails, and knowing when to let an agent run versus when to take the wheel. Without that, the tools sit underused or produce code nobody wants to maintain.
The approach
Set up Claude Code and Codex with the right rules and project conventions. Walked through agent orchestration in real work: when to spawn multiple agents, when to constrain scope, how to review what an agent produced. Shipped one real app together as the proof point. Patterns transfer to any stack, any future project.
Outcomes
- →Set up to build with AI on his own
- →Shipped a real app, not a tutorial
- →Habits that carry to any future project
