Is there a mini tutorial demonstrating best practices for people keen to try but who haven't used agents like this?

I've actually built up a set of Claude Skills for creating and using tickets. Currently overhauling them based on what I've found to be most effective. Will probably publish those in a week or two when I've nailed down what I want there.

I haven't seen any great content around this though. I've gone through a lot of trial and error with different approaches over the last few months.

Biggest thing I can say: plan up front. I frontload basically all of my involvement and have Claude do a ton of research to make a very detailed plan document and then the plan gets decomposed into a graph of tickets. I have some other tooling that orchestrates delegating the tickets to focused Claude Code sessions and they can work through them mostly autonomously for many hours until the work is done.

Good question though I expect it'll get buried amongst all the other comments. Maybe create an "Ask HN" post.

I asked Google/Gemini about a tutorial and it responded with several YouTube videos and also produced this subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AI_Agents/

Found this too: https://nitter.net/bcherny/status/2007179832300581177#m
