A harness for AI agents

AI Agents Typed Tool Layer Evals Tracing Agentic Systems

Overview

For teams shipping agentic products and hitting the wall every team hits — flaky tool calls, unobservable failures, no evals, no safe way to ship a prompt change. I build the harness around your agent so it behaves like a production system: typed tool layer, retrieval you can measure, traces you can actually read, and an eval suite that catches regressions before users do.

What this covers

  • Typed, versioned tool layer (testable in isolation)
  • An example keyword-search tool (kb_search) that demonstrates the eval harness on a retrieval-style task
  • One structured trace line per tool call, small enough to grep
  • Regression eval suite wired into CI

Status: v0.1, deliberately minimal. A reference implementation of the pattern, plain enough to copy into your own codebase rather than depend on.

Where it stands

agent-harness is open source and deliberately minimal: a typed tool layer and a regression suite, not a framework.
