Deepseek Harness: Solving Agent Tool Contention via DB Monitoring

NirantK · x · 2026-08-28

The author shares that updating existing agent tools to a new harness failed due to poor tool primitives, specifically inconsistent query latency (200ms vs 2000ms). Deepseek Harness and other RSI-style harnesses solve this by inspecting DB resource usage and IO contention to drive optimization. It works with any LLM and offers god-tier cost-performance for repetitive, iterative workloads.
