Claude Code and Codex for Non-Engineers: Build Your First Agent Workflow

You already use AI. It drafts, it summarises, it answers. But it is still a chat window you have to sit in front of and babysit. The gap between "AI helps me write things" and "AI runs this process" is structure. In this session, we show you how to create the structure to turn AI from your intern, to your 24/7 assistant that works while you sleep. What we'll cover Structuring work so an agent can do it — why the chat window caps out, and what replaces it Skills — packaging a capability once so you stop re-explaining it every time Subagents — splitting a job so parts of it run in parallel Loops — running work until it's actually finished, and recognising when a loop is quietly failing Knowing what not to automate — the judgment call that separates useful systems from expensive ones Build block — the back half of the session is you building your own workflow, with us on the floor No coding experience needed. Beginner friendly. Who the speaker is Brendan Beh is co-founder of AISEA, an AI Resident at 500 Southeast Asia, and a Codex Ambassador for OpenAI. He's spent the last two years running build sessions across the region — most recently Codex Build Week in Kuala Lumpur, where 150+ people spent three days turning their own work into working software, including senior operators from Malaysian institutions who had never written a line of code. Before AISEA he worked in venture capital at Sunway Innovation Labs and Endeavor Malaysia, and read physics at Cambridge. What to bring A laptop. Claude Code or Codex installed. Please do this before you arrive. After the session Everyone who attends gets access to a follow-up clinic two weeks later, plus the cohort channel.
