Harness = the software the agent runs on. This is plain old software. You can trust it as much as any software.
Agent = the thing that runs on the harness. It cannot be trusted because it is driven by an LLM
I get that, but wouldn't that make the agent and the harness two very different things, with the agent being closer to a model (the source of the agent) than a harness? Somebody else mentioned a console/game analogy, with the model being the disc, the agent being the running game, and the harness being the console OS, wouldn't it be like me describing Windows as a game, because games run on it?
