Agentic Coding with Claude Code

Move beyond prompt-based coding by using Claude Code to design reliable, agent-driven workflows and build production-ready full-stack applications Key Features Learn Claude Code as a development partner to build custom automations and agentic workflows Build and iterate on a Next.js application using Claude Code for AI-assisted development Scale AI-assisted development with Claude Code while maintaining code quality Book DescriptionMost developers encounter Claude Code through chat-style prompting, but that approach breaks down as projects grow and automation must be safe, repeatable, and controlled. Agentic Coding with Claude Code shows how to move beyond ad hoc prompts and use Claude Code as an extensible, agent-driven development platform. This book focuses on building context-aware AI workflows directly in your terminal and IDE. You will learn how to control Claude Code using slash commands, manage long-term context with persistent memory files, and automate development tasks using hooks that trigger actions across Claude Code’s lifecycle. The book also covers the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as an important part of the modern agentic ecosystem. You will understand why MCP exists, explore its core architecture, and configure MCP servers inside Claude Code to improve context sharing across tools, agents, and workflows. The tradeoffs between MCP, skills, and subagents are discussed to help you choose the right approach. You will design and orchestrate multi-agent systems using subagents, parallel sessions, and hierarchical delegation. By the end, you will be able to integrate Claude Code into real-world development workflows with confidence and control.
