A real agent has a process, knows when it's uncertain, and asks before it acts. In this tutorial I show you how to build one with no code, no APIs, no developer setup — just Claude Desktop and a folder on your computer. We cover the 3 levels of working with Claude, how to set up your Claude Code workspace, why the CLAUDE.md file is the most important piece of the whole system, and how planning mode stops Claude from guessing. Then we build two real agents live. Plus the 5 mistakes that kill most agent builds.
