AI writes the code. Who delivers it safely? | Harness Blog

Apr 30, 2026 By Jyoti Bansal In Harness
The question for enterprise AI in 2026 is no longer just which model. It’s which harness. An agent harness is the system around the model. It decides what the agent remembers, what context it sees, what tools it can call, what it is allowed to do, and what happens when it is wrong. The model provides intelligence. The harness provides control. This is where the real engineering is happening.

Apr 29, 2026 By Mrinalini Sugosh In Harness
What happens when your Infrastructure as Code management strategy works perfectly in dev, scales reasonably well in staging, and then quietly fractures across seventeen production workspaces because nobody documented which Terragrunt wrapper goes with which AWS account? You spend Friday afternoon reverse-engineering DRY patterns that made sense six months ago, wondering why your team is managing three different IaC execution engines with four incompatible workflow philosophies.
