883 Commits, 8 Months, One Dead Agent Harness: ELAI Archive Open-Sourced

dancingwithlies · reddit · 2026-09-06

A developer open-sourced ELAI-archive (github.com/DITlieD/ELAI-archive): 8 months and 883 commits of an overengineered LLM coding-agent harness, with Rust/Python/Tauri code, thousands of planning docs, and sanitized history. Worthwhile ideas: verification and state outside the model, deterministic replayable runs, orchestrator/worker separation, context budgeting, sandboxing, and evidence-based claim checking.
