  109. Harness Engineering: The Maturity Layer After Prompt and Context Engineering

    Agentic Development Blog,

    Teams refine prompts and assemble context, then blame the model when the agent stalls. The reliability gap is usually in the harness: the software around the model that decides what it sees, what it can do, and what happens when it fails.
