In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to move beyond chat-based coding and design structured, agentic coding workflows. Using GitHub Copilot, you will learn to write effective prompts, leverage LLMs for multi-file coding tasks, and design workflows that plan, act, and iterate safely. 

Learning Outcomes

• Explain key concepts and terminology related to agentic coding (agents, planning loops, tools, guardrails).

• Describe the agent loop (goal → plan → act → observe → revise) and its implications for software development.

• Summarize common failure modes and risks of coding agents.

• Write effective prompts and task descriptions that guide agent behavior.

• Critically review agent-generated code for correctness, maintainability, and security.

• Design an end-to-end agentic workflow for a realistic coding scenario.

• Produce a reusable prompt or workflow template that can be applied in your own projects
