Harness Wars
Claude Code vs. Codex vs. the rest: which AI agent is right for your business?
The model is only half the story. The harness around it decides how well it plans, uses tools, edits your files, and recovers when it gets stuck. That's why the same model can feel brilliant in one tool and frustrating in another. And sometimes the right answer isn't an agent at all.
This Thursday we're sorting the most popular options builders and startups are using right now: coding agents, always-on agents like Hermes and Grok Bot, automation like n8n, and build-your-own frameworks. For each type we'll cover:
• Where it shines and where it falls short
• Agent, automation, or just an API call?
• Hosted or local, and who owns your data
• Cost, and the technical skill your team needs
• Real examples from my own businesses, and which one to reach for
