HuggingFace open-sources ipython-harness: a minimal ipython-only agent eval framework

yb2698 · x · 2026-10-14

The companion repo ipython-harness is now open source: a minimal, experimental agentic harness built purely on ipython for evaluation and benchmarking. It works with any OpenAI-compatible server (the example runs Qwen3.5-9B via llama-server) and includes example.py where the agent analyzes a codebase and writes a README. The author thanks community reviewers and invites others to build on it.
