Master Claude Code in 2026 — from your first terminal command to
production-grade AI agents built with Agent Teams, MCP servers, Skills,
Hooks, Scheduling and Plugins.
Claude Code is the most-loved AI coding tool of 2026, and it is no longer
"AI chat in a terminal." It is a layered agentic system — and most
developers use maybe 20% of it.
This course covers the other 80%.
You will not just learn what Skills, MCP, Subagents and Agent Teams are.
You will build each one, from scratch, on real files and a real SQLite
database, and see exactly when to reach for which.

WHAT MAKES THIS COURSE DIFFERENT
Most Claude Code courses stop at CLAUDE md and a couple of MCP servers.
This one goes all the way to the ceiling:
- Agent Teams — the newest primitive. Lead agents, teammates, task lists
and mailboxes. Why subagents cannot talk to each other, and what to do
about it. Includes a live parallel review of a real e-commerce SQLite
database with three teammates working at once.
- Scheduling — turn Claude Code from a tool you open into an autonomous
agent that runs on its own. Almost no course covers this.
- Hooks — the seven lifecycle events , auto-
formatting Python after every edit, and blocking dangerous bash
commands before they run.
- Plugins & Marketplaces — package everything you have built into a
distributable plugin, then publish your own marketplace on GitHub.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Foundations
- How Claude Code works internally, and how agentic coding differs from
traditional coding
- Claude AI vs Claude Code vs Claude Cowork — which tool for which job
- Opus vs Sonnet vs Haiku, and when each is worth the tokens
- Terminal setup and VS Code setup, side by side
Control & Context
- Slash commands, built-ins, sessions and resume
- How the context window actually works, what it is made of, and auto-
compaction
- CLAUDE md — three ways to create one, how to write it, how to test it
Extending Claude
- Skills: YAML front-matter, markdown body, how Claude loads them on
demand
- Build your own Data-Extraction Skill and Data-Migration Skill
- Install Skills from the marketplace
Connecting Claude to the World
- What MCP is and why tool integration was broken before it
- Database MCP — query SQLite and Postgres without writing SQL
- Playwright MCP — browser automation
- GitHub MCP — let Claude manage your repositories
- Tools, permissions and the trust model
- The 7 MCP servers every developer should know
Agents
- Built-in subagents: Explore, Plan, General-Purpose
- Custom subagents — where they live, how to build a Code Reviewer and an
Orchestrator
- Skills vs Subagents vs Hooks — a clear decision framework
- Agent Teams, enabled and demoed end to end
Automation
- Hooks at every stage of the session lifecycle
- Hourly scheduled agents
- Building and publishing your own plugin and marketplace
