AICustom AI agent harnesses offer more control, one user argues
A tailored system prompt can make verbose output easier to fix, the user says, and they point beginners to DAIR.AI's harness-engineering paper collection.
TLDR
DAIR.AI describes an agent harness as the machinery around a model, including its loop, context, tools and sub-agents. One user argues that building and customizing even a minimal harness can improve code, writing and costs. Their practical example is verbosity: they say a system prompt optimized for your needs makes overly long outputs easier to fix. In a follow-up reply, they recommend DAIR.AI's harness-engineering paper collection for people getting started.
