🏆 Curated, ranked list of AI agent harnesses (100+) — plus an MCP server, llms.txt & JSON so agents can recommend them too. Rescored weekly.

Durable single-Agent Harness for TypeScript: recoverable Threads, context continuity, explicit side effects, and a native TUI.

Awesome list for AI agent harness engineering: tools, patterns, evals, memory, MCP, permissions, observability, and orchestration.

Bash is all you need - A nano claude code–like 「agent harness」, built from 0 to 1

Build a Claude-Code-shaped agent harness from scratch. 7-week course, 20 chapters, ~5,000 lines of Python, 42 tests, 3 LLM providers, no frameworks.

Open-source super AI assistant & Agent Harness. Plans tasks, runs tools and skills, self-evolves with memory and knowledge. Multi-agent, multi-model, multi-channel. Lightweight, extensible, one-line install. (formerly chatgpt-on-wechat)

Self-hosted AI agent harness in a single Go binary — writes, sandbox-tests and repairs its own tools, and lets Claude Code, Codex and any MCP client build and share them.

A highly customizable agentic harness for arXiv-ready ML/AI review papers (and beyond). It drives agentic AI like Codex CLI and Claude Code through a gated LaTeX workflow with verified BibTeX citations.

Public results and task definitions for FrontierHarness Eval

An MCP server that lets LLM agents play Civilization VI.

Knowhere extracts, parses, and outputs structured chunks ready for AI Agents and RAG.

Self-hosted agent OS with skills, workflows, MCP, and second brain storage.

Reverse-engineering Claude Code's 512K LOC TypeScript source: agent loop, tool system, permission model, Grove training pipeline, anti-distillation defense

A curated collection of resources for 🌌 Azure OpenAI, 🦙 LLMs (+RAG, Agents). Monthly Updates.

Give AI agents ambitious work without losing the plot. nac is an open-source harness for long-running tasks, using a central orchestrator, threads, and structured episodes to stay aligned with your intent.

Open-source agentic workspace enterprises can make their own. Connect the systems you already run — 100+ integrations, MCP, chat tools, apps, browser, local files — with shared memory. Any agent (Claude Code, Codex), any model, or BYOK. Set up in clicks, not months. Local-first: your data never leaves your machines.

Harness engineering applied to knowledge production: a self-evolving multi-agent newsroom that turns your documents into a cross-linked markdown wiki. A "reground" loop pulls published pages back in before they go stale — writer ≠ reviewer, local-first, a structured alternative to RAG.
