What You'll Learn

  • Audit a model release without executing unreviewed repository code
  • Design agent side effects around durable intent and recovery
  • Separate configured, resident, retrieved, cached, and useful context
  • Build per-rank GPU placement and communication plans
  • Publish evidence and workshop artifacts another engineer can reproduce
