I’ve been playing with AI agent harnesses lately. Basically, what happens between the agent saying “I got this” and me believing it? 😂
🔧 Did the tool finish, or did we just tell it to start?
🔁 If we retry, are we about to send the same email twice?
👻 Can yesterday’s worker wake up and overwrite today’s result?
My favorite check is dead simple. Give the agent a file to edit, then have a plain script reopen it and look for the exact change. If it’s missing, the job stays open. Even if the agent wrote a beautiful little victory speech. 🧾
It reminds me of commissioning. “Command sent” and “valve open” get separate lights for a reason. ✅
What’s the dumbest little check that’s saved you from an agent’s victory lap? Bonus points if it was one line of code. 😂
