DESCRIPTION:[]\n\nYou&#39;ve been using Claude like a search engine with manner
 s. It&#39;s time to use it like an operating system. Agents. MCPs. Skills. Cla
 ude Code. This is where one-person companies start — and where entire in
 dustries shift.\n\nMost people discover Claude through the chat interface.
  They ask questions. They get answers. They think: &quot;Nice. It&#39;s like a smar
 ter Google.&quot; Then they close the tab and move on.\n\nThey never find out t
 hat Claude can autonomously browse the web\, write and execute code\, mana
 ge files\, connect to any app or database on the planet\, coordinate multi
 -step workflows across tools\, and operate for hours without a single huma
 n keystroke.\n\nThey never find out about Claude Code — a CLI agent that
  can build entire products from a description. Or MCPs — a universal pro
 tocol that plugs Claude into Slack\, GitHub\, Notion\, Figma\, PostgreSQL\
 , and thousands more. Or Skills — reusable\, markdown-based &quot;playbooks&quot; 
 that teach Claude any repeatable workflow you can describe.\n&quot;Claude Code 
 is\, with hindsight\, poorly named. It&#39;s not purely a coding tool: it&#39;s a 
 tool for general computer automation. Anything you can achieve by typing c
 ommands into a computer can now be automated.&quot;\n— Simon Willison\, softw
 are engineer &amp; researcher\n\nThis course gives you the full picture — fr
 om the concepts down to the commands. By the end\, you will see Claude not
  as a chatbot\, but as a platform for building the future of work.\n\nSpea
 ker(s): Younes\, \n\nAgenda: \nModule 01\n\nClaude Is Not a Chatbot\n\nRef
 rame everything you know. Understand the architecture: Claude as a reasoni
 ng engine\, an action-taker\, and an autonomous agent — not a Q&amp;A machin
 e. The mental model that unlocks everything else.\n\nVirtual: https://even
