An introductory video tutorial covering the fundamentals of agent-first development using VS Code and GitHub Copilot. It introduces a five-part formula for successful agent sessions: harness, model, context, tools, and prompts. The harness is VS Code with Copilot agent mode enabled; model selection includes reasoning effort levels (low, medium, high); tools can be configured from built-in options or MCP servers; and context can be manually attached via files, folders, or the pound symbol. The video walks through starting a first agent session and previews upcoming topics like approval levels and permission settings.
