Tessl Academy is live (in preview) — and there are two ways in
We just shipped the first version of Tessl Academy, a hands-on curriculum for building, evaluating, and running skills for coding agents. It's early. Two courses are up — Skill Foundations and Tuning Your Agent — with more on the way. We'd rather get it in front of you now and shape it with your feedback than polish it in private for another month.
Here's the idea. Most of us are already using coding agents, but the results swing between magic and mess. The Academy is about closing that gap: moving from one-off AI coding experiments to workflows you can repeat and trust. Skills are the thread running through every lesson — small, reusable instructions your agent loads on demand.
Two ways to take it
We built the Academy so you can learn whichever way suits you right now:
- Read it. Every lesson works as a plain read on the site. No install, no setup — open a lesson and go. Good for a commute, a coffee, or deciding whether the hands-on version is worth your time.
- Run it. Install a course once, then ask your agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or Tessl Agent — to walk you through a lesson. It guides you one step at a time, waits while you work, and hands off to the next lesson when you're done. You learn skills by building one.
Same content, two speeds. Start by reading and switch to hands-on whenever you like — the Quickstart gets you running in about four steps.
It's a preview, and your feedback shapes it
This is genuinely a first cut. Some lessons will land, some won't, and the roadmap past these two courses is still open. That's where you come in: tell us what's confusing, what's missing, and what you'd want to learn next.

I'll be reading everything. Expect the Academy to move quickly over the coming weeks, and the fastest way to influence where it goes is to try it and tell me what you think.
