AI Agents for Business — Claude API, Tools and MCP Servers in Python
Who it is for: developers and technical IT staff who want AI that does real work in their systems — reading the inbox, querying the ERP, filing tickets — safely.
Inspired by the material we ourselves learned from (including freeCodeCamp's MCP guides and Anthropic's documentation) and by building BOSS Pacific's own inbox agent on Odoo.
You will be able to:
- Call the Claude API from Python and structure prompts that produce reliable output
- Give a model tools and run an agent loop with limits
- Build and test an MCP server exposing your own data and actions
- Add guardrails: permissions, approvals, logging and budgets
Prerequisite: comfortable with Python (see our Python course).
Community and help: every enrolled student gets the course Forum tab — ask the BOSS Pacific team or other students, share fixes and lab results. Read the BP Academy blog for updates and worked examples.
Includes: the full course as a licensed PDF workbook, available after purchase.
Hands-on labs: rent a ready environment from BOSS Pacific — Docker sandbox. Every lab resets every 24 hours and is removed at the end of your rental. Or build your own with the gear listed in the course.
