Hi HN,

I've been working with multimodal agentic systems ever since the ImageNet and DQN days. It's amazing to see all the progress in the community since then. The way I work with AI now is exactly what I dreamed of a decade ago.

When I started vibecoding last year, I came up with new ways to set up projects to avoid known issues in long-horizon task execution. I thought it would be great if I had one simple file that a coding agent could read when I start a new project to address these known issues while improving efficiency and autonomy long-term.

OpenMetaHarness has unlocked a better way for me to use AI. It allows me and my collaborators to run a persistent engineering operation designed to be model and system-agnostic, whose memory, judgment, and operating discipline compound over time.

In some of my tests, as the project matured, the loop ran for an hour before needing human input. When my collaborator started a new session on a new device with a new coding agent all they had to prompt it with was continue where you left off.

I call this OpenMetaHarness, a one-file bootloader and a README released under the MIT License. I'd love the community to contribute to this; this is the first version, and over time we can make it better and better!
