I've already built this IDP end-to-end with Claude Code. ArgoCD, Kyverno, Falco, OpenTelemetry, Backstage — the whole stack, from an empty cluster to a production-grade platform. I know exactly where the AI crushes it, where it faceplants, and where it gets dangerously close to something brilliant before going sideways. It gets weird. It also produces something awesome.

Now I'm doing it again, live, in front of you.

In this workshop, I'll hand Claude Code a build spec with test-driven gates and let it rip through building a complete Internal Developer Platform in real time. We'll provide lightweight lab environments so you can build alongside me — just bring your own Claude Code access. Got your own cluster? Bring that too.
Here's what I've learned: AI didn't just speed up implementation. It ate most of it. The Terraform modules, the Helm values, the boilerplate YAML — Claude Code handles that faster than any human. But what's left is the hard stuff: integration between systems, sync wave ordering, architecture, business context, policy conflicts, and the judgment calls that turn a pile of tools into a platform. Every component (k8s, argocd, prometheus) gets scored on a live scorecard so you can see exactly what AI ate and what it choked on. Oh and we scorecard not just the installation, but hte integration and the platform usability as well.

The implementation layer is supposedly disappearing. Let's find out what replaces it.
