The Harness Is the Company
- Every SaaS business will become a harness around a model, whether or not they’ve realized it yet.
- Narrowly, folks will often associate a “harness” with frameworks like LangGraph or coding agents like Codex, Claude Code, or OpenCode, which wrap a stateless model API in enough tooling and state that you can actually get work done.
- I’m using the term “harness” broadly to mean all the infra, interfaces, context, and state that surround a stateless LLM.
