Course Overview: GH-600 GitHub Agentic AI Course

Developing in Agentic AI Systems (GH-600T00) is an intermediate-level course for developers, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, and technical product managers who operate, integrate, supervise, and govern AI agents inside production-grade software development lifecycle (SDLC) workflows. It aligns with GitHub’s first agentic-AI certification (GitHub Certified: Agentic AI Developer, currently in beta). 

The course maps directly to the six official exam domains: Prepare Agent Architecture & SDLC Processes, Implement Tool Use & MCP Integration, Manage Memory, State & Execution, Perform Evaluation, Error Analysis & Tuning, Orchestrate Multi-Agent Coordination, and Implement Guardrails & Accountability. 

Emphasis is placed on operational judgment—agent architecture, tool and MCP configuration, memory and state management, evaluation and tuning, multi-agent orchestration, and guardrails at production scale—so learners can operate robust agentic systems on GitHub and pass the GH-600 exam.

After Completing the GH-600 Agentic AI Developer course, students will be able to

  • Integrate AI agents into the software development lifecycle (SDLC
  • Define clear boundaries between agent planning, reasoning, and action
  • Select, configure, and permission agent tools, including MCP servers
  • Configure GitHub remote MCP servers, registries, and allow lists
  • Integrate agents within development environments and CI workflows
  • Implement agent memory strategies and manage state across tools and environments
  • Define success criteria and evaluation signals for agent tasks
  • Analyze agent failures and tune agent behavior based on evaluation results
  • Orchestrate multi-agent workflows and detect/resolve agent conflicts
  • Implement guardrails, autonomy levels, and human-in-the-loop accountability
