Give Your Agent a Computer — Nico Albanese, Vercel

Nico Albanese from Vercel demonstrates how to build a stateful, learning AI agent from scratch using AI SDK v6. The workshop covers the core components: a tool loop, provider-executed tools like web search, end-to-end type safety, and Vercel's new persistent named sandboxes, which give the agent a file system to persist state, memory, and even self-generated tools across sessions.
