Modern platform engineering increasingly relies on coding agents to automate routine infrastructure tasks - reading cluster state, proposing design changes, and deploying workloads without manual intervention at every step. Meshery provides multiple programmatic surfaces - an MCP server, a REST API, a GraphQL API, and the mesheryctl CLI - that a coding agent can combine to act as a capable infrastructure operator.
This course walks through each surface in detail: how to authenticate and connect an agent, when to reach for GraphQL versus REST, and how to combine MCP tools with mesheryctl for tasks that require both structured reads and imperative actions. The course concludes with a complete end-to-end workflow in which an agent reads live cluster state, proposes a design change, deploys it through an approval gate, and verifies the outcome - a pattern directly applicable to production platform automation.
