Agentic Ai

5 pieces in this thread.

  1. Executable Standards

    Better tools and verifiers are not enough. The next harness boundary is the clause itself — turning standards, briefs, and codes into versioned predicates and replayable certificates.

  2. The Third Axis

    What happens when you let the harness improve itself — two experiments in feedback-driven harness evolution, and an honest look at how rough the trajectory actually is.

  3. What If the Harness Could Improve Itself?

    Applying the autoresearch pattern to self-improve an engineering agent harness. Automated prompt optimisation across HVAC audit tasks on Claude and GPT-4.1-mini, showing how harness engineering compounds when the improvement loop runs itself.

  4. Benchmarking Agents on Real Engineering Work Is Already Teaching Us Something Important

    Benchmarking AI agents on real HVAC engineering tasks across Claude and GPT models. Results on harness-dependent capability, agent evaluation design, and why AEC-domain benchmarks reveal what general benchmarks miss.

  5. Where Capability Actually Lives in Agentic Engineering

    In AEC and domain-specific engineering, AI agent capability lives not in the model alone but in harness engineering — the tools, verifiers, orchestration, and process design that make agentic work reliable.
