AI coding agents such as Codex read your codebase, edit multiple files, and run commands and tests while they work through larger tasks with you. In Codex, an AGENTS.md file holds persistent instructions for a project, and config.toml holds the agent's configuration.
We just published a course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will teach you how to get reliable results from a coding agent by giving it the right context, planning the work, controlling its permissions, and verifying every change. This course is taught by Tom Chant, Head of Education at Scrimba.
You'll work through realistic tasks, including challenges on skills, characterization tests, and config.toml. The course is aimed at experienced developers adding AI to their workflow and at non-coders who want to build software with AI help. You can also study it interactively on Scrimba.
Watch the full course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel (2-hour watch).
