Scaffold the course repo and author the full curriculum in dependency-chain order, following the settled build decisions in handoff.md. - Scaffold: course README, vendor-neutral AGENTS.md (dogfoods Module 5), _TEMPLATE.md (the fixed 9-section module shape), root .gitignore, ship config. - Modules 1-2: reference exemplars (locked for tone/depth/lab style). - Modules 3-27: full lessons + runnable labs, each following the template, respecting the chain, vendor/model-agnostic, with "feel the pain" labs. - Module 8 hosting comparison web-researched and date-stamped (as of 2026-06-22), not written from memory; expansion-zone modules carry Verify-before-publish. - Capstone: the full loop end to end on the running tasks-app example. Lab code syntax-checked (Python/shell/YAML); every module has the 7 core template sections.

Demo app — tasks
A deliberately tiny command-line task tracker. It exists to be changed by an AI, so it's small enough to read in a minute but real enough to have more than one file — which is exactly where the copy-paste workflow starts to hurt.
This is the running example for Module 1 (where you feel the copy-paste problem) and Module 2 (where you put it under version control).
Files
tasks.py— the core logic (Task,TaskList).cli.py— the command-line front end. Reads/writestasks.json.
Run it
python cli.py add "read module 1"
python cli.py add "set up my editor"
python cli.py list
python cli.py done 0
python cli.py list
Requires Python 3.10+ (it uses list[Task] style type hints). No third-party packages.
