Practical outcome

What this gives you

  1. Decompose a production workflow into accountable roles, artifacts, and dependency gates
  2. Set budgets, deadlines, stop conditions, and human escalation before work starts
  3. Operate durable jobs with idempotent inputs, run history, and a recovery decision
  4. Evaluate output against written acceptance criteria and publish only after review

Preflight

Before you start

  • CLI Essentials and Operator Diagnostics

Course details and supporting evidence

What you will operate

A release-intelligence workflow that turns a bounded source list into a draft bulletin. A researcher collects primary-source URLs, a verifier checks each claim against a receipt, an editor writes a concise draft, and a human publication owner decides whether anything is released. Every handoff has an owner, a visible artifact, a deadline, a stop condition, and a recovery path.

This is not a recipe for unattended work. More agents only help when the work can be divided without hiding authority, cost, or failure.

Course map

  1. Turn a vague request into accountable outcomes and a dependency graph.
  2. Establish role boundaries, isolated workspaces, and safe handoffs.
  3. Set goals, budgets, stop conditions, and escalation rules.
  4. Run durable work with idempotency, retry classification, and operational signals.
  5. Assess evidence and require review gates before any consequential action.
  6. Run the capstone, inspect the audit trail, and conduct a blameless improvement review.

Learner-produced visual evidence

  • Dependency graph: draw source intake → research → claim review → draft → human publication gate. Use solid arrows for required dependencies and a red stop node for missing evidence, budget breach, or unapproved publication.
  • Operations dashboard: make a redacted mock dashboard showing queue depth, oldest in-flight task, retry count by failure class, budget consumed, review backlog, and last successful run. Show thresholds and the named escalation owner beside each signal.
  • Handoff card: include task ID, role, input fingerprint, acceptance criteria, owner, deadline, cost ceiling, status, retry count, and rollback/stop action.

Source receipts and version boundary

Technical claims in these lessons are tied to OpenClaw commit ec53d0eaae19b0e54522bc91ab06234427acafd9 and npm 2026.7.1-2. Recheck the linked primary documentation before changing an agent boundary, scheduler, command, or retry policy.

Launch video decision — no videos

This launch intentionally includes no third-party video. videoIds is empty, no player or VideoObject is rendered, and course completion does not depend on video. The Brian Casel candidate (bzWI3Dil9Ig) remains a dormant optional-curation record only: it cannot be embedded unless a future independent review records segment viewing, a current-docs cross-check, availability/embed evidence, privacy/rights review, and accessibility review. No transcript is reproduced.

Completion evidence

Keep an operational acceptance pack: dependency graph, role and authority matrix, sample durable-job definition, failure/retry tabletop, dashboard thresholds, two reviewed claims with source receipts, approval record, and postmortem note. Redact private URLs, identifiers, and credentials.
