This comment implies that Claude Code is a harness, but as an AI newbie I don’t think that’s a harness? If anything it’s just a sandbox, right?

- simonw 1mo agoClaude Code is definitely a harness. The term harness is pretty loosely defined, but it effectively means the software that wraps an LLM, asks the LLM what tools it should execute, then executes those tools. I wouldn't classify Claude Code as a sandbox, though it does have some sandbox features built in, using https://github.com/anthropic-experimental/sandbox-runtime https://github.com/anthropic-experimental/sandbox-runtime (which I would classify as a sandbox)
- jaapz 1mo agoIt is a harness, it provides tools for the model to do their job (coding).
