  5. The Second Time Is a Bug
    The Second Time Is a Bug
    A field workbook for engineering with AI coding agents
    Rakesh Menon

    Stop fixing the same AI agent mistake twice. Turn each repeat into a small, tested guard: 34 pattern cards, 26 drills you can run offline, and free companion code.

  6. Building AI Agents with C# and .NET 10
    Building AI Agents with C# and .NET 10
    A Developer’s First Guide to the Microsoft Agent Framework
    Rachid DAHIR

    Your C# skills are worth more today than they were a year ago — if you know how to put a language model in the loop. This book shows you how, with the Microsoft Agent Framework: real tools, RAG, multi-agent orchestration, plus the hosting, observability, and safety that separate a demo from a system you ship. Nineteen chapters. 120 runnable projects. No Python detours. Just C# and .NET 10.

  11. The Agentic AI book
    The Agentic AI book
    From Language Models to Multi-Agent Systems
    Dr. Ryan Rad

    It's never been easier to build an AI agent — and never been harder to make one that actually works. This book takes you from language model foundations to production-ready multi-agent systems with the depth to predict failure before it happens, engineer graceful degradation over catastrophic failure, and take absolute architectural ownership.
