From a model to a system that acts
Understand the harness around a model and its tools.
Essentials
How it works
A harness organises calls, supplies context, manages task state and runs tools within permissions. Returned observations can trigger another step or a check. MCP specifies standardised exchanges; it is not a complete execution harness.
Takeaway
A persuasive explanation does not prove a result correct. Autonomy depends on access, success criteria, stopping conditions and recovery. Evaluate the complete system on the intended task.
