Proposal: An 'Anti-Harness' Benchmark for LLMs in Terrible Environments
_Stocko_ · x · 2026-08-10
An X user proposed creating an "anti-harness benchmark" for AI models.
Unlike current evaluations that provide perfect tools and standardized environments, this benchmark would feature a deliberately terrible setup: crashing tools, nonstandard flags, and Python 2 only. The goal is to test which leading model performs best when dealing with chaotic and hostile engineering conditions.
