Building an Advanced Agentic Harness
Summary
This article outlines building a production-grade agentic harness for AI agents, expanding beyond a naive loop to a plan-driven, parallel, memory-aware system with verification and budgets. It introduces Planner, Worker, and Critic roles, typed tools, a DAG plan, multi-tier memory, and a tracer to enable observability and safe degradation. The piece emphasizes composability, reproducibility, and practical patterns for reliable AI automation pipelines.
