Live session 1: one hour on Google Meet, by invitation
For product managers, project managers and engineers: how one person and a team of agents ship software, what a harness is and why the agentic SDLC needs one, and what product managers own when agents do the tasks. Attendees took away templates for an intent file and a skill, and a checklist to start on Monday.
Saturday 17 October 2026, 12:00 IST, live on Google Meet. One hour, then thirty minutes of questions. By invitation.
Session 1: Speed is solved. Direction isn't.
For product managers, project managers and people with a technical background: three parts in one hour, with the argument that building software is no longer the hard part, and that getting the right thing to customers is.
- How to build a one-person software company. A job title as a bundle of tasks, with judgment left over; how one person and a team of AI agents can run a software business; the kit and a one-week launch plan.
- Harnesses and the agentic SDLC, explained. An agent is a model plus a harness; the inner harness and the outer one that is yours; the loop from intent to spec to plan; spec-driven development and the tools that work that way.
- What product managers own in an AI-native world. Five things: the organisation's best prompts and skills, sign-off at the gates, the quality of the intent, a definition of done an agent can check, and cost and outcomes. Then a checklist to start on Monday.
Attendees took away templates for an intent file and a skill, the Start-on-Monday checklist and the sources list.
Questions left open at the end, which the notes pick up: writing a first skill live; running one feature end to end; setting up intent, spec and plan for a team; evals for product managers, so that “done” is checkable; and tracking AI cost per feature.
