Claude Code with a Silicon Valley Engineer (for Developers)

Are you using AI but still typing a new prompt every time? Does it generate code, but fail to enable team-based automation or systematization? This course is not about learning Claude Code as a “conversation tool.” It is about learning how to design AI as a system using Agents, Sub-agents, Agent Teams, Memory, and Hooks.

Hello. I remember that the things you said during your seminar in Korea a while ago were very helpful. Recently, I went through the official Claude Code documentation and even took a lecture as a review, and it was very helpful once again. Above all, what you said in the last session really stuck with me. Thank you as always.

It was very helpful to be able to get just the information I needed quickly while working busily. Thank you!

What you will gain after the course

  • The ability to design AI as a “system,” not a “tool”

  • Claude Code Architecture Patterns You Can Apply Directly in Practice

  • An Engineer Mindset for Staying Competitive in the AI Era

🔥 Claude Code: From a developer who uses AI to an engineer who designs AI

This course covers not “how to use AI,” but the mindset for designing AI architectures.

  • 🔥 You can use AI not just as a conversational tool, but as an automation engine.

  • 🧠 Through Agent · Subagent · Agent Teams, you can design role-based AI architectures.

  • ⚙️ Using Hooks, Memory, and Skills, you can create a workflow that eliminates repetitive tasks.

  • 💰 Through a Model & Cost strategy, you can control both performance and costs.

  • By leveraging output-style, you can create a standardized output structure that enables team-level collaboration


🎯 Recommended for people like these

Developers who use AI every day but whose productivity isn’t improving systematically

“I use AI a lot, but… why does it always feel like I’m starting over from scratch?”

Senior engineers who want to build team-level automation

“I think this could be turned into a system… How should I structure it?”

An engineer worried about their career competitiveness in the age of AI

AI is getting better and better… How far does my role extend?

🚀 After completing the course,

  • ✅ You will understand not the features of Claude Code, but its “structure.”

  • 🔥 Turn AI from something you use repeatedly into a reusable system

  • 🤖 You can create a differentiated story that says, “I designed an AI system.”

🎥 You’ll learn about the following content.

Agent · Role-based Design · Workflow · Prompt Architecture · Reusable Structure

  • Learn how to design Claude not as a simple “chat tool,” but as a role-based system.

  • Instead of assigning all tasks to a single AI, learn how to divide and structure work into units.

  • Practice how to automate repetitive tasks by creating reusable prompt structures.

  • Compare and understand the difference between “AI structures that work well” and “unstable ways of using AI.”

AI without context = inconsistent reasoning.

Subagent · Division of labor structure · Agent Teams · Collaboration model · Plugin extension

  • Learn how to use Subagents to create a division-of-labor structure for AI.

  • A single developer designs a structure that operates like a small team through AI.

  • Learn how to divide roles among AIs and synthesize their results through Agent Teams.

  • Learn how to use plugins to extend Claude like a platform.

  • In an era when AI tools are rapidly evolving, we summarize strategies for staying ahead without FOMO.


What Are Agent Teams?

Understanding the Structure of Work Logs · Sessions · Transcripts

  • Open and see for yourself what Claude Code records on my computer.

  • See how to build the real-time visualization tool Agent World using only those records.

  • By understanding the structure instead of memorizing features, you can create things like this too.

Go beyond being a mere user and become an orchestrator who directs AI.

🤔 Why I Created This Course

When I first encountered AI, I was amazed. And soon, a question came to mind.

"Are we really going to use this only through prompts every time? Isn’t this not a conversation, but a design problem?"

After working in the field for a long time, one principle becomes ingrained: if it isn't automated, it won't scale.

Even while using Claude Code, I arrived at the same conclusion.

That using AI well and designing AI as a system are entirely different matters.

So I began to see Claude Code not as a "conversational tool," but as a platform that can be designed.

A structure that allows you to divide agents by role, create automatic execution with Hooks, maintain context with Memory, and standardize Output for team-wide scalability. This course is a direct, organized account of that process.

❓ Do you have any questions?

Q1. I already use ChatGPT and Claude well. Do I really need to take this course?

Honestly,
if you feel that knowing how to write good prompts is enough,
you may not need this course.

But if you’ve ever had thoughts like these, it’s a different story:

  • “I feel like this could be automated…”

  • “Why am I rewriting the same thing every time?”

  • “How should we structure this to introduce it to the team?”

This course does not teach prompt skills.
It covers how to design AI like a system.

It is the journey from someone who uses it well
to someone who designs it well.

Q2. Isn’t this content too advanced? Will it be difficult to follow?

This course is intended for those with basic development experience.

However, it does not cover difficult material like mathematical formulas.

I explain it by applying the criteria I use when designing systems in real-world projects directly to
Claude Code.

It’s not about “explaining features.”
Because you’ll understand “why it’s designed this way,”
you can follow along much more clearly than you might expect.

Q3. What actually changes when I learn this?

The biggest change is this: AI is no longer just a “conversation partner.”
AI becomes a system that performs tasks.

In the past:

  • Document writing → a new prompt every time

  • Code scaffolding → a new request every time

  • Repetitive tasks → a new conversation every time

After completing the course:

  • The agent takes on a role and

  • Hooks run automatically,

  • Memory maintains context.

In other words, AI acts like a team member.

    I am not satisfied with the quality of the lecture. Since the lecture consists of simply reading out the PPT documents in English, I stopped halfway through and turned it off because I couldn't listen to it anymore. It seems that being a good developer and being a good teacher are two different things. I felt the exact same way I did back in university when an incompetent professor would just read a few pages from a book and end the class. I get that you are good at English and that we need to prepare for English, but the targeting seems disconnected from reality. People take courses to learn easily because they don't know the subject well, but if you just read the original English text as it is and keep moving on to the next topic... wouldn't it be better to just skip the lecture and read the Korean documents provided on the official Anthropic site sequentially? I was very interested in the instructor's other courses as well, but I don't think I'll be able to take them if they are all like this.

      Hello, ssebong777. First, I would like to apologize for disappointing you by not meeting your expectations. I fully understand the point you raised. Especially from the perspective of someone learning new content for the first time, it could feel like the material is simply being read from English documentation, which I imagine was frustrating for you. However, this course was designed for developers who will actually be working directly with global documentation and development environments, rather than for absolute beginners. Therefore, I structured it to read through the official Anthropic documentation based on the original text as much as possible and explain what it means in a real-world professional context. The PPT is also intended more as a resource for interpreting the official documentation from a practical perspective rather than being a simple summary. In particular, as the course progresses toward the latter half, there is more content related to practical application rather than just document explanation, so if possible, I would appreciate it if you could check out at least the later sections.
