AI Workflows & "Shape & Ship"
Welcome to the core of the AI Workflow Curriculum. Here, we discuss the mental models, methodologies, and orchestration patterns required to build applications successfully in pair-programming environments with AI agents.

Secure Remote Agents: Hermes, Claude Code, & Tailscale
This guide walks you through setting up an always-on, self-hosted AI agent portal. By combining Hermes Agent (Nous Research) for persistent orchestration, Claude Code for specialized software engineering execution, and Tailscale for secure remote networking, you can access your private AI development workstation from any device in the world.
Using the Claude API in Workflows
While pre-built interfaces and CLI agents (like Claude Code) are excellent for standard tasks, building custom AI workflows requires interacting directly with the Anthropic Claude API.
Managing Environment Variables & Config Files
In modern AI development, managing configurations and environment variables is critical. Your workspace files, API keys (e.g. ANTHROPICAPIKEY), and tool behaviors are defined here.
