Agentic AI with Windsurf: A Practical Guide to Building Smarter Workflows and Autonomous Coding Systems

Move beyond basic AI coding assistance and explore how agentic AI can support more autonomous software development workflows. Agentic AI with Windsurf introduces the principles behind goal-driven AI workflows, autonomous task execution, planning, tool use, verification, and human oversight. You will learn how agentic thinking can be applied to coding projects, how complex tasks can be divided into coordinated steps, and how Windsurf can fit into a broader AI-assisted development system. The book emphasizes practical implementation rather than theory alone. It covers agent roles, task planning, context management, validation, debugging, safety boundaries, and workflow design for increasingly autonomous development processes. Designed for developers, technical builders, automation enthusiasts, and readers who already understand basic AI-assisted coding, this guide provides a practical bridge from simple prompting to structured agentic AI development.
