The file
Step card 1: Why we are here
Block 1 of 7, 10:30 to 10:50.
Where we are
Step 1 of 7: the problem. A course full of barriers, and a team too small.
What you will have at the end
A picture of where the day ends: a team report on a whole course, with one section written by an agent you build.
Steps
- Listen. Nothing to type yet.
- Open the kit in VS Code if it is not open already: File, then Open Folder, then choose the ahg-2026-agent-kit folder. The welcome page opens.
- Open Copilot Chat: Control+Alt+I on Windows, or Command+Control+I on a Mac.
- Type /ready-check and press Enter. Copilot checks five things and tells you each one is ready.
You are on track if
Copilot ends the ready check with: You are ready for 16 November.
If you are stuck
If the ready check says something needs a hand, a helper fixes it with you while the room carries on. You will not miss anything you cannot catch up on.
Raise a hand at any time. A helper comes to you.
Your win
You are set up. That was the hardest part of the day, and it is done.
On Monday
The two rules travel with you: nothing private goes into any AI, and a person reviews everything an agent writes.
