I /clear my coding agent all the time. Mid-task, even. It costs me nothing: the state of my work lives in the repo, not in the conversation.

Externalization in LLM Agents: A Unified Review of Memory, Skills, Protocols and Harness Engineering arxiv.org/abs/2604.08224… #AI #HarnessEngineering
Text Shot: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly built less by changing model weights than by reorganizing the runtime around them. Capabilities that earlier systems expected the model to recover internally are now externalized into memory stores, reusable skills, interaction protocols, and the surrounding harness that makes these modules reliable in practice. This paper reviews that shift through the lens of externalization. Drawing on the idea of cognitive artifacts, we argue that agent infrastructure matters not merely because it adds auxiliary components, but because it transforms hard cognitive burdens into forms that the model can solve more reliably. Under this view, memory externalizes state across time, skills externalize procedural expertise, protocols externalize interaction structure, and harness engineering serves as the unification layer that coordinates them into governed execution. We trace a historical progression from weights to context to harness,…

This time I walk through taking a feature from a one-line backlog item to a delivered feature live in production!
Harness Engineering: Running the pipeline end-to-end
In this post I talk through one item out of the backlog that's been implemented, and show what prompts I used along the way, how I interacted with the LLM, and what artifacts were generated to give t...

1/ Coding Benchmarks Are Misaligned with Agentic Software Engineering

On #CodingAgents, #HarnessEngineering & #SoftwareFactory and why today's coding benchmarks are not designed to adequately evaluate coding ability of such increasingly complex systems.

Position: Coding Benchmarks Are Misaligned with Agentic Software Engineering
Coding agents have become a major mode of software engineering, but the benchmarks we use to compare them were designed in a pre-agent era: they collapse model, harness, and environment into a single ...

In Interactive Mode, you take back control.

Finalize before a release. Make trade-offs. Verify results. Redirect the work.

Here, you're working interactively — and two resources matter: context window and token quota.

Quick question: how do you monitor your AI coding sessions?

Not the output. The session itself. How long it's been running, how much your agent is carrying in its context right now.

I blamed my AI agent for breaking my code. Then I realized I gave it a massive engine with zero steering. Enter harness engineering. Once I built the system around the model—managing state, context, and guardrails—it finally worked. Learn to break the system. #HarnessEngineering #AgenticAI
