Agent charter
Mission, inputs, tools, permissions, owner, and stop conditions.
Hands-on AI workshops on Fridays in September and November.Learn to create a flow around the work you already know.Why buy when you can build?
Automate what repeats. Advance what matters.
One task. One day. One less thing on your plate.
Automate .
If each spend on this, automation would be worth .
ROI estimate: .
01 / THE OUTPUT
Your team leaves with a system, not a folder of prompts.
Most AI classes stop at an impressive demo. We follow the work all the way through permissions, tests, review, recovery, and handoff.
Portable harness
Reusable context, instructions, examples, and structured output.
Evaluation pack
Five ordinary, edge, and failure cases with a review rubric.
Monday plan
A 14-day implementation runbook with a named human in charge.
02 / THE DIFFERENCE
Not another afternoon of impressive demos.
The room is organized around a real recurring task, visible failure, and the person who owns the handoff.
Typical AI classSignal & Craft
01Starts with a clever prompt↳Starts with recurring work
02Shows the happy path↳Tests ordinary, edge, and failure cases
03Ends with inspiration↳Ends with a supervised first system
04Leaves ownership vague↳Names the human, limit, and stop rule
05Optimizes for novelty↳Optimizes for a credible Monday test
EXAMPLES BY FIELD
Start with work you recognize.
Choose your field to see practical tasks you could bring. You do not need an AI project—just a job that repeats.
00 / ALL
Start with the task that keeps stealing your afternoon.
Find the repeat work that turns a simple day into chasing, sorting, rebuilding, and remembering—then picture the day without it.
- ↳ Keep the promise
- ↳ Clear the backlog
- ↳ Finish on time
05 / THE METHOD
From possibility to controlled practice.
An agent completes a multi-step task. A harness is the operating system around it: instructions, context, tools, permissions, tests, limits, logs, and human checkpoints. You build both.
- 01INPUT
Frame the work
Name the mission, source of truth, failure cost, owner, and stop condition.
- 02CONNECT
Assemble the harness
Give the agent instructions, context, tools, permissions, limits, and a structured output.
- 03TEST
Break it on purpose
Run ordinary, edge, and adversarial cases. Measure quality, cost, speed, and intervention.
- 04HANDOFF
Make the handoff
Decide what can be tested Monday, what needs review, and what should not ship.
REVIEW REQUIRED
SCOPE / REVIEW / HANDOFF
Build the workflow. Keep the review visible.
Start from a bounded brief, document the source and assumptions, and keep a deliberate review step before anything moves forward.

Do I need to know how to code?
No. This workshop is designed for people who know their work.
Bring a laptop with Codex, Claude, or a comparable agent tool already working, plus one piece of work you want to automate.
Do I need to know anything about AI?
No. We start with the basics and build step by step. If you can explain how you do a task today, you can take part.
How is this possible?
AI got smart. Really smart. Recent models can follow complex instructions, work across long documents, and use tools with far more consistency.
More importantly, the systems around them caught up. Agents, harnesses, MCP, and operating-system integrations make custom workflows fast to build, teach, test, and improve.
Give AI the repeatable parts. Keep the judgment and exceptions. Take recurring work off your plate—and keep it off.
Which tools will we use?
Arrive with Codex, Claude, or a comparable AI coding or agent tool already set up and working on your laptop. The methods transfer across tools, but live setup support for other products may take time and cannot be guaranteed during the workshop.
Your confirmation includes a preparation check so you can test access before your Friday.
What should I bring?
Bring a laptop with Codex, Claude, or a similar agent tool already working, plus one recurring task you want to automate.
What if my plans change?
Refunds and seat transfers are available through 11:59 PM ET on the day before your selected Friday. Email events@signalandcraft.work with the registration email and the change you need.
Where exactly is it?
In an accessible Manhattan studio. Exact arrival details are sent to registered participants after the room is confirmed.
Can my company book a private session?
Yes. Contact us for a session built around your team’s work, policies, and tools.
