      <description><![CDATA[Hadley Wickham demystifies coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) by building a minimal one in R with ellmer. The core is just six tools — read file, write file, edit file, list files, search, run command — plus a system prompt. Also covers path safety and why a targeted edit tool beats full file rewrites.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Hadley Wickham refines the agent definition by clarifying that tools run in the harness, not the model — and uses math as the concrete example. LLMs are confidently wrong at arithmetic, but harnesses can supply a calculator tool. Also covers how web chat harnesses quietly provide web search, page fetch, memory, and image generation.]]></description>
