How the academy uses the tools
Codex can handle build, review, tests, docs, and agent-assisted execution. No Claude Code step is required; OpenClaw is an optional lab surface rather than a prerequisite.
Codex course
Learn Codex as a core build, review, and testing workflow.
Codex matters because it can help with real engineering work: code changes, reviews, tests, docs, and parallel agent tasks. This academy keeps that power grounded in a small service demo and a human-reviewed final project.

The two complete lessons are free without an account or card. Full Academy access is an optional separate purchase; AI tools may cost extra.
Safety boundary
Students keep Codex work reviewable: test outputs, inspect diffs, avoid secrets, and never let a success page or tool claim stand in for actual access and safety checks.
Student artifacts
What students actually build.
A service artifact that names the workflow and output before any code is changed.
A Codex workflow note for docs, troubleshooting, review, testing, or future customization.
A test log that proves the demo handles normal and edge cases.
A proposal that describes the service, not a vague promise to use AI.
