Hands-On AI Agent Experience: Build Your Own Harness to Gain Real Edge
EXM7777 · x · 2026-08-03
The author emphasizes that to truly master AI agents, one must spend significant time building projects inside agent harnesses. This includes learning to build your own harness (e.g., pi/omp), configuring agents and observing behavior shifts, stealing skills from public repos, feeling when context hurts output, building knowledge bases until retrieval breaks, and understanding effort levels for tasks. The real edge comes from reps and intuition, not just theoretical knowledge.
