AI HarnessTesting Your Harness Against Prompt InjectionInjection resistance is something you measure, not assert. Harness prompt injection testing attacks your own agent with a corpus of payloads in CI before someone else does.September 9, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessMulti-Tenant Agent Harness DesignOne tenant's batch job starved everyone; a keying bug leaked another's data. A multi tenant agent harness makes isolation structural: namespaced state, scoped creds, fair scheduling.September 9, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessPersisting Agent State in the HarnessWhat must a run save to survive a crash, and what should never touch disk? Agent state persistence draws that line: consistent, secret-free, versioned checkpoints.September 9, 2026·9 min read
AI HarnessBuilding a Harness for Long-Running AgentsA four-hour run can't live in a thirty-second request. A long running agent harness separates the durable run from the disposable worker so it survives crashes and deploys.September 9, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessHow to Stream Harness Output to a UIUsers bail on silent spinners fast. An agent harness streaming ui streams structured events — tool calls, results, tokens — so a long run shows its work as it happens.September 9, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessValidating Tool Arguments Before ExecutionThe model sent 2026-02-30 and the schema passed it. Agent tool argument validation is the layer that checks arguments against reality, not just against a shape.September 8, 2026·9 min read
AI HarnessStructured Tool Schemas in the HarnessYour agent tool schema is a prompt, not just a validator. Written well, its descriptions and enums control model behavior more reliably than half your system prompt.September 8, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessBuilding an Audit Log Into Your HarnessCan you reconstruct exactly what your agent did, tamper-proof? An agent harness audit log turns 'we think it did X' into an unforgeable, queryable record.September 8, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessHow to Handle Secrets and API Keys in a HarnessA Stripe key sitting in every log line is what bad agent harness secrets management looks like. This teardown rebuilds it so the model never sees a credential.September 8, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessApproval Gates: Requiring Human Sign-Off in the HarnessA blocking approval step froze workers for hours; a blanket one became a rubber stamp. Here's how one team built an agent approval gate that's async, durable, and specific.September 8, 2026·8 min read
AI HarnessPermission Systems for Agent ToolsA 'confirm before deleting' prompt let an agent wipe 200,000 rows. Build an agent tool permissions layer that enforces rules in code, not politeness.September 8, 2026·9 min read
