1Harness Engineering Basics (1/4) — Why the Work Environment Matters More Than the Model
If a strong model still produces uneven results, the bottleneck is often not the model.…
2Harness Engineering Basics (2/4) — How AI Agents Actually Work: Context, Tool Calls, and the Agent Loop

3Harness Engineering Basics (3/4) — Why Instruction Structure and Context Design Matter More Than Longer Prompts
Many teams treat agent quality as a prompt-writing problem: should the prompt be longer,…
4Harness Engineering Basics (4/4) — MCP and Tool Engineering: Design the Tool Surface for AI Agents
Adding more tools to an agent does not automatically make it more capable. If tool names…

Recommended pace

Each part takes 25–40 minutes on average. One to three parts per week is the sweet spot for retention.
