Two days for developers and engineering managers who want to go beyond using agents — to understanding them, deploying them systematically, and multiplying that knowledge across their entire team. No hype. Real blueprints. Hands-on code.
01 — WHY_NOW
Real agentic workflows
No toy demos, no slides-only sessions. You work with actual production setups — CLAUDE.md, MCP, sub-agents, context engineering — the internals, not just the surface.
Patterns from 288 customer workshops
What works, what fails, and when an agent is the wrong answer entirely. The typical mistakes your teams will make — and how to prevent them.
The Agentic Factory — live
Harness architecture: context layer, quality gates, observability, hooks. Agents across the entire SDLC — from story to PR review — demoed live.
A rollout playbook you own on Monday
You leave with a concrete 90-day plan — built during the session. Not just inspiration. An actual starter kit on your laptop.
100 practitioners at your level
Peer exchange with developers and EMs dealing with the same shift. Five breakout tracks grouped by challenge area. A network that keeps talking after the event.
Full cost transparency
€1,999 per person. All sessions, hands-on workshops, meals, drinks included. No hidden add-ons. No sponsors.
02 · the_format
Keynotes, live demos,
hands-on workshops.
Not a conference. No passive listening, no surface-level panels. You build real context architecture during the sessions and leave with it on your laptop. Tracks grouped by challenge, not org size. Hamburg, June 16–17, 2026.

04 · agenda.json
Two days. One goal:
you leave knowing what to do Monday morning.
05 · TRACKS[]
Adoption in skeptical teams
Resistance Mapping, SCARF model, Shu-Ha-Ri for AI skills. How to win over the senior devs who are blocking — without forcing it.
A
Quality Gates & Governance
Hooks, linting, test coverage, agent permissions. What can the agent do — and what must it never touch? How to prevent codebase degradation.#
B
Productivity Metrics
DORA + AI Metrics, AEMM levels, what CTOs want to hear vs. what actually matters. Dashboard design for agentic teams.
C
Team Transformation
New roles, pod structures, from 8-person squads to 3-person pods. How does hiring change? What happens to QA?
D
Rollout Strategy & Change Management
Build your 90-day playbook: Week 1–4 pilot, Week 5–8 scale, Week 9–12 embed. Budget, licenses, management buy-in.
E
06 · STARTER_KIT[]
What you take home on Day 2.

CLAUDE.md Templates
Battle-tested project and team-level context files, ready to adapt to your codebase.
Rules & Skills Files
Pre-built rules files and reusable skills covering the most common agent workflows.
MCP Configurations
Ready-to-use MCP setups for the tools your team already runs. Plug in and go.
90-Day Rollout Template
