Harness engineering
How coding agents become useful when the repo, tools, tests, browser, traces, and review loops are designed as one operating environment.
Long-form notes on harness engineering, context, evals, traces, and the unglamorous parts that make coding agents and AI systems useful after the first demo.
How coding agents become useful when the repo, tools, tests, browser, traces, and review loops are designed as one operating environment.
Retrieval, workflow control, permissions, cost boundaries, observability, and the product surfaces people need when the model is wrong or unsure.
Notes on using AI tools without outsourcing taste: where automation helps, where it drifts, and how to keep software legible.
