Sydney | Claude for Developers
About this event
Claude Community Australia is excited to host a Claude Code Meetup.
Limited Spots. Good people. Local Builders.
Agenda:
-------
17:30 – 18:00 | Doors Open & Networking
Kick things off — meet fellow AI-curious minds, and warm up before the main program begins.
18:00 – 18:10 | Opening: Why We're Here
A quick intro to set the vibe for Australia's growing Claude community!
18:10 – 18:25 | Ralph-loops and heartbeat.md — Laurence Hendry
RALPH loops are taking over Claude Code feeds for good reason — they let you hand off a goal to an autonomous agent loop and actually walk away. We'll look at how they work and when to use them.
Then: heartbeat.md. Borrowed from OpenHands, this is a simple trick for injecting personal context and project memory directly into Claude Code's reasoning — less drift, better alignment, more useful output
Claude Code Anonymous (Sydney) Host, AI Build Club Sydney City Lead, MLAI “Sydney Dispatches” Reporter, full-time Data Scientist
18:25 – 18:40 | How to orchestrate multi-agents with Claude Code — Arthur Backouche
Learn how to orchestrate multi-agent workflows with Claude Code from coordinating specialized AI agents to managing context, tools, and autonomous task execution. Discover practical patterns for building scalable AI systems that collaborate efficiently across complex development workflows.
18:40 – 19:05 | Break — Networking and Pizza
Have a slice of pizza, a beverage, and mix and mingle. Meet your local community.
19:05 – 19:20 | Let's build a Plane.MCP and a live dashboard in Cowork — Dominik Fretz
If you're self hosting Plane.so you can't use their hosted MCP. There is a local MCP but that is not practical if you're using Claude on the go. - Enter: The self hosted Plane MCP GW.
Bonus, lets use Cowork to build a dashboard that combines all my projects!
19:20 – 19:55 | Lightning Talks
Bojan Zivic will takes us away with a short talk on: Sentiment analysis system, using claude code to generate a langraph multi agent flow of measuring compassion in calls
Afterwards: We have space, the stage is yours! Show us what you got!
21:10 – 21:20 | Community announcements & Q&A
Community announcements, next meetings, Q&A.
What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal. It lets you delegate coding tasks directly to Claude—whether you're building new features, debugging tricky issues, refactoring legacy code, or exploring unfamiliar codebases. Just describe what you want in natural language, and Claude Code handles the rest: reading files, making edits, running commands, and iterating until the job is done.
Think of it as pair programming with an AI that can actually touch your codebase. No copy-pasting between a chat window and your editor—Claude Code works where you work.
