Agent Harnesses tools (10)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
compareSide-by-side comparison of 2-4 harnesses by github_id — for "should I use X or Y?".
compare_forPick the top harnesses for a use case or task and compare them side by side.
get_comparisonFull markdown of one decision guide by slug (see list_comparisons). Guides cover architecture trade-offs, field reports, and the post-June-2026 billing reality — use them when a user is choosing between specific harnesses, not just browsing.
get_harnessFull record for one project by github_id (e.g. "anomalyco/opencode").
list_categoriesThe list's 10 categories and 14 curated use-case intents, with project counts.
list_comparisonsThe list's head-to-head decision guides (e.g. "OpenClaw vs Hermes", "How to pick a harness") — slug, title, and summary for each. Fetch the full text of one with get_comparison(slug).
pick_harnessRecommend agent harnesses for a use case, ranked from a hand-curated list of 100+.
pick_infrastructurePick agent infrastructure at any level of the stack: curated list first, live web discovery second, so the answer is never limited to the list.
recommendOpinionated single recommendation for a need — a decision, not a list.
search_harnessesKeyword search across all 100+ projects (name, description, tags, category).
