Building with Claude Code: The Agentic Development Handbook
Most developers lose an hour a day to Claude Code without knowing why. The output looks wrong. A convention gets ignored. You press Yes 20 times and it still doesn't finish. It's not the tool. Nobody told you how it actually works. I built production agentic systems with Claude Code and wrote down everything I learned the hard way. Building with Claude Code: The Agentic Development Handbook 16 chapters. 6 failure modes. One complete real session from empty directory to working agent. Not documentation. Not a tutorial. The book you want after your first week.

About the Book
Building with Claude Code: The Agentic Development Handbook
Most developers lose an hour a day to Claude Code without knowing why. The output looks wrong, a convention gets ignored, something changes that you didn't ask to change. The official docs explain what the commands do. This book explains why things go wrong and exactly what to fix. This is not a beginner's guide. It's the book you want after your first week — when Claude Code feels smart sometimes and unpredictable the rest of the time, and you want to close that gap permanently.
What's Inside: 16 Focused Chapters, 4 Quick Reference Sheets, 6 Failure Modes Diagnosed, 1 Real capstone diagnosed.
Companion Repository: Every example is drawn from a real, working LangGraph codebase: github.com/sameershukla/agentic-ai-lab
Who this is for: Developers already building with Claude Code — or about to — who want to understand why it behaves the way it does and what to do about it. Python-centric examples, but the principles apply to any project.
