About this project

Agents are the bleeding edge of AI engineering — and most agent demos are toys. This project builds a real agent that completes a useful task: research a company, calculate a TAM, or draft a personalized outreach. Implement the loop yourself (don't hide behind LangChain) — tool calls, error handling, max-iteration safety, and the tool-design discipline.

Why build this in 2026?

Agents are the 2026 frontier. Building one without LangChain proves you understand the actual primitive.
