| Key features | - Configure plugins, skills, MCP servers, and hooks in a single harness.yaml file
- Observatory: monitor every session, tool call, and minute of activity
- Memory: persistent knowledge graph for AI orientation
- Comparator: run prompts across Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot side by side
- Import existing configs from multiple AI coding tools automatically
- Share complete setup via single file with teammates
- Harness Parity: verify all connected AI tools end up with identical configuration
- Cross-harness compatibility table showing actual tool capabilities
| - Cites open-source code at specific commits with exact line numbers
- Prior-art briefs showing how projects solved the same problem
- Automated license classification and verdicts
- Semantic search using embedding model and BM25
- Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other MCP clients
- Runs locally on your machine under MIT license
- Receipt with repo, commit, lines and license class
|
|---|
| What makes it different | - Import-first approach: reads existing configs from all your tools and converges them before you write YAML
- No marketing gloss: capability table generated at build time from actual adapter code, not hand-maintained
- Portable across tools: single harness.yaml travels with you to every machine and tool
- Open source and free: no cost beyond existing Claude subscription
- Based on open specification: Harness Protocol is vendor-neutral and JSON Schema validated
| - Only tool that automatically cites exact lines and commits from real open-source projects
- Eliminates hallucinated code by searching real open-source implementations
- Handles license compliance automatically in every report
- Runs entirely on your machine with no telemetry or analytics
- Open-source engine with MIT license; paid hosted service option
