This Month's Workshop: Building with Claude Code
AI is already building itself—Claude Code's newest update was exclusively made with Claude Code itself. Join us for a hands-on exploration of one of the most powerful AI coding tools available today, where you'll see how it can fix bugs from your phone, run 50 sub-agents at once, and act as your personal assistant with the ability to search files, browse the web, and execute code.
What will be covered:
Sandbox & VM Setup – Prevent AI from deleting your files and run multiple agents safely
Prompt & Context Engineering – How to structure communication with AI and manage large context windows
Claude.md – Understanding the context sent with every message
Commands & Repeatable Tasks – Save time with structured workflows
MCP vs Tools – Enable AI agents to interact across different applications
Sub-Agents & Orchestration – Move beyond simple prompting to complex multi-agent systems
Plugins – Download and share entire Claude Code setups
Presenter: Adam Towner
Adam is a Rice University freshman with a background in physics and psychology research who switched to AI and now uses it daily. He's passionate about new models and architectures, has built booking platforms and education management apps, and is currently exploring vision and world models in construction applications.
Come ready to build. This workshop will move from demo into interactive learning where we'll work together to bring ideas to life in real time.
