Harness Engineering, the first frontier!
Harnesses are understudied and the LLM labs' best-kept secret.
Those GPT wrappers hide a lot more complexity and control. We look at how this shapes new "backend engineering" with LLMs as the 4th primitive (compute, network, storage).
We talk about the coding harness as the most general harness, where all innovation lands. But the case for narrow harness remains.
Nirant will be talking about Claude Code and Hermes as the harness to leverage the model intelligence
About the speaker:
Nirant, founder of Scaled Focus, help AI teams ship agents that stay reliable in production — build, monitor, and eval.
Nirant Kasliwal is a notable AI Engineer with over 7 years of experience in areas such as chatbots, language models, and vector databases.
He has contributed to AI education through projects like "Awesome NLP," a resource for engineers learning NLP and publishing NLP with Python.
