Ported from lsimons/agent-engineer-course commit c3d862f, adapted to this repo's layout (NN-name/README.md, relative links) and ADK-based lesson content: - Lesson 7: the orchestration tax - human review capacity as the ceiling on multi-agent parallelism - Lesson 9: mistake 7 - never let the agent grade its own homework; review test diffs more carefully than code diffs - Lesson 10: calibrated autonomy - three risk questions and a pre-delegation contract - Lesson 13: the harness concept (agent = model + harness) and the ratchet pattern - Lesson 15: write AGENTS.md by hand - the discovery filter - Lesson 17: workflows not essays, anti-rationalization tables, evidence as exit criterion - Lesson 18: long-running agents - the three walls, externalized state, and the Ralph loop Each addition links the source post in further reading.
