Anthropic engineer on harnesses and self-improving agents
In a 41-minute talk, an Anthropic engineer argues for building self-improving harnesses and graphs instead of writing prompts, with a pointer to a Grok Bot starter guide.
This is f*cking insane. Anthropic engineer: "If you want to be in the top 1% of AI engineers, stop writing prompts. Build a harness that improves itself." In 41 minutes, she explains how Anthropic builds with AI internally and why harnesses and graphs sit at the center of it Prompts → Agents → Harness → Loops → Graphs A harness makes each unit of work correct without you A graph decides which units should exist and turns every accepted result into a rule for the next run That is what "self-improving" actually means. Almost nobody builds it Worth more than most $500 agent engineering courses Bookmark and watch it today Then start with the "Your First Grok Bot" guide below and give one agent a real job ↓
