The author publicly released an agent-harness analysis report on a HF Space for community inspection, also experimenting with how model performance and behavior vary across harnesses and model sizes — a widely known effect noted in recent work.
Key finding: except for codex, all harnesses share at least 65% overlap in tool domains, meaning harness capabilities could largely be centralized and shared.
