Own your harness, folks.
I feel like System One models take custom agent harnesses to a whole different level.
It's not a surprise.
This comes down to needs that haven't been met with System Two models alone.
A need to be in control of your intelligence stack.
A need for more reliable agents. Combining System One and System Two models is way better than just relying on one alone.
A need for richer agent experiences (more personal and proactive agents).
A need to squeeze out more value per token used.
You can check my most recent guide on building a custom harness with Pi and Jev to learn more: https://academy.dair.ai/resources/jev-decisions-in-a-pi-sdk-harness
But let's not stop here.
I expect a new wave from frontier labs pushing decision models further.
And even better tools to build even more customized decision models on top. There are more layers to this.
This is great news for us builders and an incredible opportunity for those who specifically build custom harnesses.
