Harnesses in AI: A Deep Dive, AI Engineer Europe 2026

The arc the AI agents workshop follows: an agent that fails and lies about it, harnessed live until it does the job, without a single change to the prompt.

I'm Tejas Kumar, an AI Engineer at IBM and the best selling author of Fluent React (O'Reilly). I teach engineering teams the 2 things I work on every day: building AI agents that do their job reliably, and how React works inside.

Reliable AI agents in production

A hands-on workshop on agent harnesses: the tool registry, context management, guardrails, the agent loop and verification. We start from an agent that fails and lies about it, and harness it until it does the job without a single change to the prompt, the same arc as my talk Harnesses in AI at AI Engineer Europe 2026. Then we do it on the agents your team is building, with whatever models you use.

React internals and Server Components for teams

The material from Fluent React, my O'Reilly book, taught to your team: JSX, the virtual DOM, reconciliation, concurrent React, server-side React, frameworks and React Server Components. Your team stops guessing why a component renders and starts making performance decisions from how React actually works.

What can be added to a workshop?

Watch the harness talk, or read what an agent harness is, to see how I teach. The React material is in Fluent React.

How much does an AI agent workshop for my team cost?

A remote day for up to 15 people is €10,000, an on-site day for up to 20 people is €14,000, and 2 days on-site on your own codebase is €24,000. A remote half day briefing for engineering leaders is €6,000. Each person above the cap is €500 a day.

How much does React training for a team cost?

A remote day for up to 15 people is €7,500 and 2 remote days are €13,500. On-site, 1 day for up to 20 people is €10,000 and 2 days are €18,000. Each person above the cap is €400 a day.

Can the workshop use our own codebase?

Yes. The 2 day on-site formats are built for it, and the codebase review add-on makes a 1 day workshop use your code too.

Remote or on-site?

Both. I live in Berlin and travel for on-site workshops anywhere; travel is billed at cost. A remote day can run as 2 half days for teams across time zones.

Who teaches it?

I do, every time. I'm Tejas Kumar, an AI Engineer at IBM, the best selling author of Fluent React (O'Reilly) and a conference speaker who has given 80 recorded talks since 2012.

How do we book a workshop, and what are the terms?

Email me the dates you have in mind, the team size, remote or on-site, and what your team is building. Prices are net, plus VAT where it applies. A 50% deposit holds the date and the balance is invoiced after the workshop. Cancelling within 14 days of the date costs the full fee.

Send the dates, the team size, remote or on-site, and what your team is building, and you will get a straight yes or no.
