What you'll learn
Core patterns shaping context engineering in 2026
Understand the major approaches teams use to give models the right information at the right time.
Tradeoffs between different context strategies
Learn how to compare approaches based on accuracy, latency, token cost, maintainability, and reliability.
Apply these patterns to design better agentic systems
Use routing, progressive disclosure, and modular capabilities to build agents that are more efficient and reliable.
Why this topic matters
Most agent failures stem from poor context engineering, not weak model capability. Teams often overload prompts with instructions, tools, and retrieved information, which makes systems brittle, costly, and difficult to scale. Understanding how to structure, route, and selectively load context helps you build agentic systems that surface the right capabilities and information at the right time.
