Get under the hood of the most powerful AI coding tool available.
For developers, analysts, and technical builders who want to go beyond chat. Install Claude Code, connect it to databases and APIs, and build real automated workflows in your own environment.
“The value is in checking. Getting it to generate things is one part, but the real value is bouncing ideas off it and getting detailed feedback — not just where you've gone wrong, but how you can improve. That's where students could get a lot of value.”
“I've already enhanced my skills over the past week — been able to interact with AI to redraft, polish, and give suggestions or ideas.”
For developers, analysts, and technical builders who want to go beyond chat. Install Claude Code, connect it to databases and APIs, and build real automated workflows in your own environment.
- You write some code — Python, JavaScript, SQL or similar
- You're comfortable in a terminal (or willing to be by the end)
- You have a real workflow you want to automate, not just experiment with
- You want hands-on, not slides
The surface area is massive. Here are the kinds of things students build in and after the cohort.
Anthropic's AI Fluency framework splits human-AI interaction into three modes. Most people only use the first. Claude Code unlocks all three.
Automation
You tell the AI what to do; it executes.
“Summarise this video.” “Format this spreadsheet.”
Most people live here.
Augmentation
You and the AI think together, back and forth.
“Review my memo and suggest improvements.”
This is where chat gets useful.
Agency
You configure the AI to work independently on your behalf.
“Every morning, read my inbox, draft replies to the ones I can delegate.”
This is where Claude Code earns its keep.

Claude Code ships with a plugin marketplace. You install a skill once; it's available in every project. Examples used in our cohorts:
Superpowers
structured thinking (brainstorming, hegelian-dialectic, dispatching-parallel-agents)
Context7
pulls live library documentation when you're coding
Playwright
drives a real browser for testing and automation
Marp
generates slide decks from markdown
You'll install and use 2–3 of these in every RMAI course.
“What's blowing my mind is how rapidly this is evolving. I had a look four or five years ago and it's so different now. Back then it would just hallucinate gibberish; now it's a trusted partner.”
