An agent harness is a piece of software that provides an environment for an AI model to operate within.

Open Coding Agents: Fast, accessible coding agents that adapt to any repo | Ai2
SERA is the first in our family of Open Coding Agents, achieving state-of-the-art performance at low cost.

AGENTS.md
AGENTS.md is a simple, open format for guiding coding agents. Think of it as a README for agents.

Designing agentic loops
Coding agents like Anthropic’s Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex CLI represent a genuine step change in how useful LLMs can be for producing working code. These agents can now directly …

Building a Multi-Agent System from Scratch: Architecture Patterns
Orchestrator-worker, blackboard, and pipeline patterns for coordinating multiple AI agents — with the failure modes that only show up once you go past a single-agent demo.
Skills, forks, and self-surgery: how agent harnesses grow
Claude Code, NanoClaw, and Pi take radically different approaches to harness extensibility. The tradeoff is always safety vs. agent agency.

What is an Agent Harness? | Rubric Labs
A harness is the software that translates a model into a system that can affect its environment. Agent = Model + Harness.
