App Infrastructure for Clean Architecture Enabling AI Agents

App Infrastructure for Clean Architecture Enabling AI Agents

A hands on training that teaches how to design application infrastructure and development processes so AI agents can work safely, predictably, and effectively inside Clean Architecture.

Overview

This training introduces a Code Design method that actively supports and enforces critical architectural decisions, while enabling the safe and effective use of AI agents in software development. It is especially suited for medium to large development teams that want to combine Clean Architecture with AI assisted workflows, without sacrificing code quality or long term maintainability.

The method addresses the challenges of developing large enterprise systems by emphasizing code quality through structure. It focuses on designing application infrastructure that makes architectural rules explicit, verifiable in code, and consistently applied across the system.

The Application Infrastructure defines a clear and intentional structure that acts as the backbone of the system. It enforces Clean Architecture principles by making it easy to write good code that follows the architecture, and hard to write bad code that violates the design intent. By isolating policies from details and enforcing clear responsibilities, the structure supports long term development by keeping the cost of change predictable as the system evolves.

The same structure that guides human developers also enables effective workflows with AI agents. Clear boundaries, explicit abstractions, and enforced dependency rules provide agents with well defined limits and safe entry points for change. Instead of operating as free form code generators, AI agents become part of an engineered development process.

By constraining what agents can analyze, modify, or extend, the infrastructure makes it possible to design repeatable agentic workflows that increase development efficiency while preserving architectural integrity and maintainability over time.

In addition to software design, the training provides insights into Project Design, helping participants understand how technical separation and architectural boundaries impact planning, task dependencies, estimation, and risk management.

The training balances conceptual understanding with hands on practice. Participants not only learn the core design principles of the method, but also gain practical experience extending an Application Infrastructure using .NET.

Motivation

AI assisted development is rapidly becoming part of everyday software delivery, but without the right structure it often increases complexity, technical debt, and delivery risk.

This training is motivated by the need to adopt AI agents in a way that strengthens architectural discipline rather than undermining it.

By combining Clean Architecture with application infrastructure that enforces design decisions and constrains AI agent behavior, teams can improve development efficiency while preserving code quality, predictability, and long term sustainability.

Target Audience

Any Software Architect, Team Lead or Software Developer would benefit greatly from this training.

Prerequisites

Attendees will benefit most from this training if they have a strong understanding of:

  • Encapsulation and Polymorphism
