AI Agents with Model Context Protocol
Build AI Agents That Actually Work AI agents are everywhere—but most of them fail in frustrating, unpredictable ways. They get confused, waste tokens, hit dead ends, and require constant babysitting. This course teaches you the patterns and architectures that separate agents that struggle from agents that succeed. Using Python and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), you'll learn to build AI agents from the ground up—and more importantly, you'll learn why certain designs work while others fall apart. What You'll Learn: - Build MCP Tool Servers — Create the bridge that lets AI agents interact with any system: filesystems, databases, APIs, or your own custom tools - Build a Research Agent - Create your own research agent that can explore your computer and help answer questions with documents, find that missing data, or explain how code works. - Master the Agent Loop — Understand the universal pattern every AI agent follows: PERCEIVE → DECIDE → ACT → OBSERVE → REPEAT - Connect agents to tools — Wire up LLMs to discover, select, and execute tools autonomously The Patterns That Make Agents Reliable: - Response-as-Instruction — Your tools don't just return data—they guide agent behavior in real-time. Learn to design tool responses that teach the agent what to do next, when to stop, and how to communicate results. - Failing Forward — Turn errors from dead ends into stepping stones. Design error messages that teach agents how to recover—automatically, without human intervention. For the first time in computing history, your error messages have a reader that can actually do something about them. - Intelligence Budget — Every token in the context window is precious attention. Learn to maximize signal and minimize noise—pre-digesting data in tools, using scripted orchestration for mechanical work, and reserving the agent's cognitive resources for decisions that actually require intelligence.

Comment configurer un pixel Facebook
A la fin de ce projet, vous serez capable de configurer un pixel Facebook. Le pixel Facebook est un outil très utile pour toutes les entreprises ou pour tous les sites Web. C’est un code qui, une fois placé sur le site Web, est capable de collecter des données et d’aider à suivre les conversations des publicités Facebook et créer des publics ciblés pour les futures publicités. Dès que quelqu'un a visité un site Web, le pixel Facebook se reconnecte avec lui pour lui remettre à l’esprit ce site. Avez-vous déjà visité un site Web sur Internet, puis vu une publicité sur ce site Web sur votre Facebook? Très probablement, c’est parce que ce site Web avait un code de pixel Facebook placé sur son site.
