Example session with this skill installed
Run an adversarial replay on fixture 04 to verify the safety gate and check the output schema against the strict contract for our loop escape prevention logic.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the harness-engineering
CONTRACT VERIFIED: Loop escape prevented.
[REPLAY] fixture_adversarial_04: PASSED
[REPORT]
- Safety Gate: Verified (Role: Critic)
- Output Schema: Verified (Strict)
- State Isolation: Inferred
Residual Risk: Low. The recovery path for tool timeout remains Unknown in high-latency scenarios.

About this skill
Advanced AI Control and Testing Framework
The Harness Engineering skill provides a professional-grade toolkit for developers building agentic workflows, LLM control loops, and autonomous systems. It solves the "black box" problem by implementing explicit execution contracts, multi-role orchestration (Planner/Executor/Verifier), and rigorous regression testing pipelines.
What it does
This skill transforms a standard AI agent into a precision engineering tool capable of:
- Defining Control Contracts: Locking down input/output invariants and authority boundaries before execution starts.
- Multi-Pass Orchestration: Managing complex Plan-Execute-Verify-Recover loops with stateful memory and tool budgets.
- Automated Verification: Using a dedicated CLI to run golden fixtures, replay traces, and inject adversarial tests.
- Evidence-Backed Reporting: Generating structured reports categorized by "Verified," "Inferred," or "Unknown" confidence levels.
Why use this skill?
Prompting an AI is easy; keeping it on the rails in production is hard. This skill provides a structured CLI companion and a set of Validation Ladders that ensure your agent doesn't skip safety gates or hallucinate success. It’s built for developers who need to harden their agent orchestration against edge cases and state drift.
Supported Workflows
Supports sophisticated agent patterns including deep reasoning loops, safety gates, trace capture for debugging, and automated scorecard generation for AI performance benchmarking.
