What you'll learn

  • Spec-driven development — driving AI coding agents with specs, not vibes
  • Context engineering and project memory files (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md-style) for your codebase
  • The agent loop: reviewing and verifying AI-written code so bugs don't ship
  • AI-assisted testing, refactoring and debugging on real, messy codebases
  • Building small tools and agent automations fast
AI-native by default

The AI classes in this program

Every Lightspace program teaches the AI-native method — not a bolt-on module, but a working style woven through the projects.

  • Spec-driven development — the discipline of specifying before generating
  • Context engineering and project memory files for your own codebase
  • The agent loop: specify → generate → review → verify, until it's habit
  • Agent automations — delegating whole tasks with guardrails

The curriculum

  1. 1

    Spec-driven development

    Week 1

    Turning intent into good specs and getting AI agents to produce code you'd actually merge.

  2. 2

    The agent loop: review & verify

    Week 2

    Reading AI output critically, testing it, and catching the failure modes before they ship.

  3. 3

    Context engineering

    Week 3

    Project memory and conventions files, structuring context so agents work well on real, messy codebases — refactoring and debugging with control.

  4. 4

    Automate with agents

    Week 4

    Building small internal tools and agent automations that pay for the course in a week.

What you leave with

  • A faster, safer AI-native workflow on your own projects
  • Habits that keep quality up as speed goes up
  • A set of reusable specs, context files and patterns for your stack
