It mentions Schema, a custom harness designed to make an agent "think like a physicist," claiming it can saturate ARC-AGI-3. The core argument is:

- Designing the right harness can be more effective than simply piling on prompts
- Custom harnesses can steer agents toward specific reasoning styles and task structures
