The tutorial covers using InsForge Agent Skills and MCP to let the agent scaffold the entire app from a single prompt, including auth flows, a real-time feed, media uploads, per-user notifications via Postgres triggers, and an in-app AI chat assistant (Wave AI) backed by InsForge's AI gateway. Deployment is triggered directly from inside GitHub Copilot with no manual steps. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
