This repo is built around three ideas: 1. A map 2. Guardrails 3. Feedback loops If an agent cannot find the right context, it guesses. If an agent has no boundaries, it makes risky moves. If an agent cannot see what broke, it cannot improve its own work. What is harness engineering? Harness engineering is the work of building the environment around an AI agent so it can do useful software work on purpose. That environment usually includes: - repo docs and architecture notes - agent instructions - tool permissions and approval points - coding and schema boundaries - tests and UI validation - logs, metrics, and traces The goal is not to write the perfect prompt. The goal is to make good behavior easier for the agent than bad behavior. The 3-part framework 1. Map Give the agent a clear model of the system: - what the product does - how the repo is organized - where business rules live - how modules are allowed to depend on each other - where to find important scripts, tests, and docs See docs/repo-structure.md. 2. Guardrails Make risky behavior harder: - validate schemas at boundaries - enforce linting and type checks - document approved tools and commands - require human approval for destructive actions - keep architecture and dependency directions explicit See docs/starter-checklist.md. 3. Feedback loops Let the agent see whether its work actually w","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/kju4q","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/kju4q/q-agent-harness/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
