Harness
The runtime around a model — loop, tools, memory, permissions, and stop conditions.
Sample glossary term.
A harness is not the model weights. It is the software that feeds the goal, exposes tools, stores observations, retries, and stops. Two products can share a model and behave differently because the harness differs.
