Favur's Harness writes a progress report only at four moments: (1) the model answers in plain text without calling any tool; (2) the Agent crosses a seam in its own work (starting or completing a unit of work); (3) one of the Agents it delegated to comes back with a result; (4) something outside the conversation brings it a message (such as a supervising Agent's score change, a stall notification, or a person's note). After an ordinary tool call the Harness stays silent.

UnverifiedWhen the Agent loops for fifteen turns within a step without completing it, the Harness sends a three-part notice: the first part states the count and names the step; the second part provides the evidence gap; the third part offers the exit of "report failure" and closes with "do not keep exploring". Five turns later comes a more blunt warning, requiring the Agent to call the step completion tool on the next turn and threatening that continued exploration will cause that Agent to be terminated.71% similarUnverifiedWhen an Agent repeatedly calls the same tool with no change in returned results or makes no progress over multiple rounds, the system should proactively pause to check whether it is stuck.64% similarUnverifiedThe ledger mechanism is essentially a persistent task queue in engineering terms, decoupling task state from volatile session context by writing it to external storage, allowing agent work to be resumed after a session interruption.63% similarUnverifiedWhen an unknown finish state is encountered with no tool activity, the Agent retains partial response content and continues execution once via a hidden user message; only if unknown is returned a second time is it judged as a failure.63% similarUnverifiedCapture (the capture layer) records the complete behavioral trajectory of the Agent, including the final answer, tool calls, execution results, and events such as interruptions.62% similar
