This page introduces an external open-source repository. It is not an HDATF product.

What it does

An open-source agent harness that researches, writes code and creates content over long tasks. It orchestrates sub-agents, memory, sandboxes, tools and extensible skills, plus a message gateway, for work that can take minutes to hours.

How it helps ATF

Worth comparing closely with Harness, which also keeps state and memory for an AI task and hands work to other executors. Its research focus could also be a reference for LabChin.
