3. Draw the rest of the fucking owl
This is not enough information for someone new to MCP / agents to start the course. What you actually need to point out, is that users need to type "startMastraCourse" into their IDE's agent mode to actually start the course.
I'm brand new to MCP and agents but was able to read the extra docs to get VSCode set up with Mastra. Then what? I only figured out the "start Mastra Course" because of their tweet where they show someone typing that into co-pilot.
There really needs to be more hand holding to get someone to the point where the course actually starts. From there I've been able to follow along alright, but it was a real battle to get to this point.
i hear you, we should have added more instructions since it's a new concept (and still very experimental)
we will update the top intro video to show how to actually get into the course and add more information to the course page to make this clear
Start course. It’s an mcp, talk to it like an instructor.
