Professional Agent Workspace for Educators and Researchers

Build a personal workspace powered by OpenAI Codex and Claude Code: from defining a task to producing lectures and reviews, assessing student work and transferring ready-to-use processes to colleagues. No programming required. Built around your real project.

Every session ends with a working artefact in your repository — from a task brief to a workspace that can be handed over to a colleague.

Профессиональные задачи

Does this sound familiar?

The course is built around the real work of people who create, evaluate and transfer knowledge.

01

University educator

  • Every semester, lectures and presentations have to be revised manually.
  • Assessing term papers takes weeks, while students are already writing them with ChatGPT — and there are no rules.
Что изменится

A lecture and practical session that can be updated in hours rather than days; an AI-use policy and an agent for preliminary review of student work — while the final assessment remains yours.

02

Researcher

  • A literature review takes months of manual work.
  • A year later, it is impossible to reconstruct where a conclusion came from or why a hypothesis was rejected.
Что изменится

An evidence-based review with a source registry and a ‘claim — evidence’ map; a reproducible research process that stands up to scrutiny.

03

Learning designer or programme leader

  • Courses depend on particular individuals — when someone leaves, the course is lost.
  • There is no shared standard for working with AI across the department.
Что изменится

Materials with instructions, criteria and a runbook can be transferred without weeks of verbal explanation; a foundation for departmental standards.

No programming experience is required: every session has an operator track using ready-made templates and a builder track for technically confident participants.

От ответа к системе

Everyone already has a chatbot. Why is that not enough?

Most educators have already tried ChatGPT: a quick draft, polished prose — and a fabricated reference in the bibliography. A one-off conversation does not provide what matters most: verifiability, repeatability and the ability to transfer the result. This course teaches a different way of working.

Conventional chatAgent workspace
The answer is text in a chat windowThe result is a set of files in your project
Context is lost when a new session beginsPersistent instructions and project memory (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md)
Sources come from the model's ‘memory’A source registry and claims map, validated by a script
The result cannot be reproduced six months laterA reproducible workflow with acceptance criteria
Quality depends on finding the right wordingA process: task definition → context → execution → verification → documentation

The agent proposes and executes. Fact-checking, pedagogical decisions and accountability remain with the human. The course teaches this balance.

What you will build

Not a collection of chat responses, but seven connected working artefacts that remain in your repository.

01

Agent workspace

A repository with instructions, project memory and a decision log: the agent works according to your rules, not the other way around.

AGENTS.md
02

A new working week

A delegation matrix, agent task queue and checkpoints: measure the real time saved, rather than relying on a sense of moving faster.

agent-queue.yaml
03

Evidence-based literature review

A source registry and claims map; a script catches fabricated references before your students or a reviewer sees them.

check_sources.py
04

Lecture and presentation as a project

Every claim can be traced to its source; adapting the material for a new audience becomes a procedure rather than a rewrite.

lecture-manifest.yaml
05

Practical session and original Skill

A packaged method that can be repeated and transferred: a rubric, reference solution and counterexamples.

SKILL.md
06

Assessment in the age of AI

An AI-use policy, a process evidence package and an agent for preliminary review; the educator makes the academic decision.

AI_USE_POLICY.md
07

Mirror artefact

The course's final outcome: a workspace that a colleague can reproduce without you, tested through a ‘cold handoff’ during final assessment.

cold-handoff-report.md

Every artefact remains yours and continues working after the course

What this looks like in practice

Four professional scenarios and real files that you will work with.

Title slide for Session 1 on the transition to an agent workspace
Sessions 1–2

Adapt a lecture for a new audience

Instead of rewriting it, create a TASK.md task brief with acceptance criteria; the agent reads your materials, proposes a plan and clearly marks anything missing as [SOURCE REQUIRED].

TASK.md
Title slide for Session 4 on the evidence-based literature review
Session 4

Build a review you can trust

A sources.csv registry, a claims.csv claims map and a validation script that finds a phantom reference in seconds.

sources.csv · claims.csv
Title slide for Session 7 on assessing student work in the age of ChatGPT
Session 7

Assess a term paper written in the age of ChatGPT

The student submits the text plus a process evidence package; the agent checks completeness, identifies contradictions and prepares questions for the defence. The decision remains yours.

submission-manifest.yaml
Title slide for Session 9 on the mirror artefact and cold handoff
Sessions 8–9

Hand a course over to a colleague without a month of meetings

A manifest, runbook and ‘cold handoff’: the recipient reproduces the result without asking a single verbal question.

Course programme

01From a ChatGPT conversation to a professional agent workspace+

We examine the limitations of a one-off chat and turn a real task into a verifiable project. We establish a baseline benchmark, acceptance criteria and delegation risks.

Ключевой результат: A real-task brief, baseline benchmark and risk map

02Repository, professional memory and an atomic workflow+

We assemble the workspace structure, persistent agent instructions and a decision log. We establish a short cycle: one task, one check, one documented result.

Ключевой результат: A workspace structure, persistent instructions and an atomic workflow

03Agent time management: attention calendar, queue and checkpoints+

We break down the working week by delegation type and create an agent task queue. We compare time spent before and after using real data.

Ключевой результат: A delegation matrix and personal agent-enabled working week

04The literature review as an evidence-based, reproducible process+

We connect the search protocol, source registry and claims map. A validation script detects phantom references and gaps between conclusions and evidence.

Ключевой результат: An evidence-based review with a source registry and claims map

05Lecture and presentation as a reproducible educational project+

We turn a lecture from a single document into a package of connected artefacts. Every claim and slide can be traced to a source and the session plan.

Ключевой результат: A lecture and presentation linked to an evidence base

06Practical session and the framework for an original short course+

We design a practical session, rubric and reference answer, then package the repeatable method as a Skill. We test it on both a standard and a problematic case.

Ключевой результат: A practical session, rubric, short-course map and tested Skill

07Term papers and dissertations in the age of ChatGPT+

We define AI-use rules and the components of a process evidence package. The preliminary-review agent prepares flags and questions but does not replace the educator's assessment.

Ключевой результат: An AI-use policy, evidence package and agent for preliminary review

08Group collaboration through artefacts and handoff contracts+

We separate the roles of producer, critic and integrator. We formalise the handoff through contracts, permissions and a measurable acceptance report.

Ключевой результат: Handoff contracts, roles and a measurable group workflow

09Mirror educational artefact and cold handoff+

We assemble the final workspace and hand it over to a colleague without verbal guidance. An independent run reveals what is truly reproducible and what requires improvement.

Ключевой результат: A transferable workspace and an independent reproducibility report

How learning works

Every four-hour session produces a working result

Each session is structured as a production cycle, not as a lecture about what AI can do.

  1. 1Problem
  2. 2Framework
  3. 3Live demonstration
  4. 4Guided practice
  5. 5Peer audit
  6. 6Documentation

One continuous personal project connects all nine sessions: each new artefact builds on the previous one.

The final assessment is a cold handoff: a colleague reproduces your workspace without verbal guidance.

Operator track: work with ready-made templates. Builder track: adapt instructions, scripts and workflows to your own practice.

FAQ

Practical questions before you begin

Do I need programming skills?+

No. Every session includes an operator track with ready-to-use commands and templates. The builder track is available to participants who want to modify scripts and workflow architecture, but it is not required to complete the course.

What setup will I need?+

You will need a laptop, Git and access to OpenAI Codex or Claude Code. Before the course, you will receive a short preparation checklist; during the first session, we will check your workspace and baseline benchmark.

What should I prepare for the first session?+

Bring one real professional task and materials you already use: a lecture plan, a set of sources, a practical exercise or a student-work package. The course is built around your project, not a disposable training example.

How is this different from a prompt-engineering course?+

A prompt is only one element of the process. The main outcome is a repository with context, instructions, criteria, checks and a decision history that can be reproduced six months later and handed over to a colleague.

Can the course be delivered for a department or team?+

Yes. The course can be tailored to your department's materials and AI-use policy. State the size of your team and its task in the application, and the author will suggest an appropriate format for the discussion.

What material is used for the practical work?+

Your continuous project. Ready-made course demonstration packages are used when necessary, but the final instructions, rubrics and workflows are adapted to your professional context.

What will I keep after the course?+

All the files you create remain yours: the workspace, evidence-based review, lecture package, practical session, AI-use policy and handoff package. They are stored in your repository and updated through your normal working process.

How does the final assessment work?+

You hand a mirror copy of your workspace to a colleague, who tries to reproduce the result without verbal guidance. The cold-handoff report identifies gaps and becomes the plan for the final revisions.
