Building Agents

SWE Principles for Building Out Agents

Yes, agents can be used for a lot of things (other than coding!). But, before using them, it is important to get a mental model of why using agents instead of simpler solutions:

What can agents do?
What is an Agent?
When to use an Agent?

With an idea of when to use agents, we move onto the how. How do we build agents?

Agents

We are still only at the very basics. There is still a lot more content to know about how to make agents more powerful:

Advanced Agentic Engineering

Finally, we look at specific ways in which we can build Agentic systems for given use cases.
