Genesis

Harness v1

“Where the harness idea was born.”

The first Claude Code agent workspace. Five agents, a folder of artifacts per ticket, and a human approval after every phase.

The first flight

Five agents (requirements, architect, dev, review, bugfix) driven by a handful of skills: /plan, /implement, /progress, /fix, /review and /update-system.

Each ticket gets its own artifact folder with requirements, architecture, data entities, slices, progress and review. Work stops for a human yes after every phase.

What it taught me

  • Agents do much better with written artifacts than with chat history.
  • Approval gates don’t slow you down. They stop work from going wrong quietly.
  • A harness needs a console. That lesson became Mothership.
