Our harness engineering days are limited because – of course – it is not too difficult to automate. I don’t build project harnesses anymore – I write one Claude user plugin that harness-engineers for a living.
The harness engineer in turn has a harness which functionally tests how well it engineers harnesses. The title of this post is a real thing that I just made, and I can even have it self-improve on a loop.
Ultimately this will be less about dev and more about how fast we can figure out what to make, how to measure it, and how to sell it. If you’re harness engineering now, start reaching *up* into product management and strategy, *in” to the business, and *out* to your customers.
