Claude Code : Agent Skills, Agent Loop, Code Agents, MCP (Udemy.com)

This course uses artificial intelligence to enhance voice quality.  Build Practical Claude Code Workflows for Software Development  Claude Code can do far more than generate isolated code snippets. In this hands-on course, you will learn how to configure Claude Code as a practical development partner and build repeatable workflows for coding, testing, review, automation, and collaboration.  You will begin with installation, IDE integration, core architecture, and a guided expense-tracker project. From there, you will progress into Agent Skills, subagents, memory, slash commands, the agent loop, Model Context Protocol (MCP), hooks, and GitHub Actions.  What You Will Practice  • Create reusable Agent Skills with effective metadata, progressive disclosure, scripts, references, and assets. • Build specialized subagents and coordinate sequential and parallel workflows. • Use slash commands to standardize refactoring, Git commits, testing, and repeatable development tasks. • Configure Claude Code memory to preserve project instructions and context across complex codebases. • Understand the agent loop and control permissions, turns, budgets, effort, and context. • Connect MCP servers through STDIO and integrate tools such as GitHub, Puppeteer, and Sequential Thinking. • Create hooks for formatting, activity logging, safeguards, debugging, and multi-step automation. • Use GitHub Actions for pull requests, code review, bug fixing, repository updates, and continuous automation.  A Hands-On Learning Path  The course combines concise explanations with practical demonstrations and labs. You will build an expense tracker, create and run custom Agent Skills, inspect agent-loop messages, develop general-purpose and developer-focused subagents, connect MCP servers, and assemble automated workflows that combine commands, agents, hooks, memory, and GitHub.  The curriculum is organized so you can start with Claude Code fundamentals and then move into advanced workflow design. Developers can apply individual techniques immediately, while technical leads can use the broader architecture to evaluate repeatable team workflows.  Who This Course Is For  This course is designed for software developers, QA engineers, DevOps professionals, technical leads, engineering managers, computer science students, and AI builders who want practical experience with Claude Code. Basic familiarity with files, folders, and terminal commands is helpful, but previous Claude Code or AI-agent experience is not required.  By the end of the course, you will be able to design and implement structured Claude Code workflows that connect reusable skills, specialized subagents, project memory, MCP tools, hooks, slash commands, and GitHub automation.  Recent Updates  July 2026: Added the Agent Loop module and hands-on lab. June 2026: Added the Agent Skills modules.
