Building the State of the Art: Agentic Builders, Comparing Notes

​Building the State of the Art (BSOTA) is a twice-monthly working session for people building with agentic tools.

​Most people using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Conductor, and custom agents are still figuring things out in isolation. Workflows are changing quickly, best practices are uneven, and a lot of the most useful knowledge is stuck in private projects, side conversations, and scattered online posts.

​BSOTA brings those builders into the same room.

​Each session starts with a few live walkthroughs from people actively using agentic tools in their work. Speakers show their actual setups: what tools they use, how their workflows are structured, what has improved their output, and what still breaks.

​After the walkthroughs, the rest of the night is open working time. Bring your laptop, share what you’re building, compare workflows, ask questions, and meet other people working through similar problems.

​This is for people who are already using agentic tools regularly and want to get better by learning from other serious builders.

​Bring a laptop and a project you’re working on.
