Welcome to Build Agent

Learn AI Agent engineering by comparing two production codebases: Claude Code (TypeScript) and Codex (Rust).

๐ŸŽฏ What You'll Learnโ€‹

By analyzing 500K+ lines of production code from Anthropic and OpenAI, you'll master:

  • 15 reusable design patterns for building AI agents
  • Architecture trade-offs between different approaches
  • Production-grade practices from real-world projects

๐Ÿš€ Quick Startโ€‹
