Claude Code and Codex have been the mainstay. OpenCode and Pi showed what open-source harnesses could be. But two new entries just moved the goalposts: DeepSeek's Cordis kernel treats everything — even the agent loop itself — as a hot-swappable plugin, and Prime Agent runs the whole harness inside a live REPL where sub-agents are just function calls. Self-learning harnesses are here, and they're open source.

Mitchell Hashimoto co-founded HashiCorp, built some of the most impressive DevOps tools like Vagrant and Terraform, sold the company to IBM — and then built a terminal. Ghostty is now where a huge chunk of agentic coding actually happens. Mitchell was an AI skeptic.

Andrej Karpathy says the goal is to maximize how long an agent runs without your intervention.
