Book Description:
Automating repetitive tasks and integrating systems efficiently becomes increasingly complex as workflows scale. This book helps you solve that problem with practical Python recipes that guide you from foundational automation to advanced, AI-powered workflows.
You start by building a strong base in Python automation, exploring tested solutions for file handling, web scraping, APIs, testing, and system operations, and learning how to design reliable automation workflows. The cookbook approach enables you to quickly apply solutions to real problems while building a deeper understanding through hands-on practice.
This third edition expands the scope of automation by introducing AI-powered capabilities. You learn how to call AI models within your scripts, use and implement the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for system integration, and design intelligent agents that automate decision-making processes. New chapters provide real-world examples of AI agents in business automation, helping you move beyond scripts to adaptive systems. This book combines practical knowledge with modern techniques to ensure you stay current with evolving automation practices.
By the end of this book, you will be able to design, build, and extend Python automation workflows, including AI-driven solutions, to handle complex real-world tasks with confidence.
