Topic:
MCP, Skills & Context Engineering: Building Real AI Agents (Hands-On)

In this hands-on, follow-along session, we'll unlock two of Claude's most practical superpowers — MCP and Skills — and use them to introduce the discipline of context engineering. You'll learn what an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server actually is and how it differs from a Claude connector, what a Skill is and how it packages expertise and workflows you can compose into your own custom agent. From there, we'll level up from "vibe coding" to production thinking by exploring the BMAD Method -a multi-agent, context-engineered approach that turns loose prompting into structured, production-ready software delivery. Bring a laptop: every concept is demoed live and built for all levels, so you'll leave able to wire up your own tools, skills, and agent workflow.
