Production Agent Skills Engineering Certification

What You'll Demonstrate

• Distinguish precisely between a Skill, a Tool, an MCP server, and an Agent, and place each correctly in a real architecture
• Apply six named design patterns to scope and structure a new skill correctly on the first attempt
• Recognize skill smells and apply a bad-to-production quality checklist to any SKILL.md
• Engineer a skill's failure handling — retries, fallback, recovery, and validation — as deliberately as its happy path
• Compose multiple skills into a single higher-order agent, and design skill sets for multi-agent supervisor/worker systems
• Build a structured evaluation workspace measuring quality, cost, and reliability, not just whether a skill triggers
• Apply a security and governance model covering prompt injection, secrets, sandboxing, and supply-chain risk
• Version, lint, test, and deploy a skill through a real CI/CD pipeline into a registry
• Design and ship a complete, production-grade enterprise skill pack
