What you'll learn

Working agent from scratch

Build a minimal agent that accepts input, calls tools, and returns results.

What guardrails actually are

Understand what guardrails are, where they sit, and why prompts alone fail.

Production-ready guardrail patterns

Implement practical input, tool, and output guardrails used in real systems.

Reusable mental model

Leave with a guardrail model that applies across agents and frameworks.

Why this topic matters

As teams move from chatbots to agents, failures become actions. Without guardrails, agents can misuse tools, ignore constraints, and fail silently. This lesson gives engineers a clear mental model and concrete patterns for building safer agents that hold up beyond demos.
