Comment on Show HN: Ante, a coding agent in a single binary that runs offline

Comments

I understand that claude-code takes a lot of memory and that's bad. However, harneses are simple loops, in theory should take very little memory even if written in python or typescript. See for e.g. pi agent

I love pi and share many vision and value with it. But my view on harness is that it is to capturing the structural mechanism with llm interacting the world. They are a dynamic duo evolving together. The technical depth will continue to grow (e.g. /goal being the new primitive, multi-agent collaboration is basic need)

Yes the core part is a simple loop, but we have all built toy compilers, inference engine, browsers (it is just a curl command eth) etc. The core algorithm is supposed to be simple.
