What it does
Repo Harness is an agent skill from Ancienttwo/repo-harness. Route explicit repo-harness commands and active harness work. Exclude ordinary questions, quoted reports, and general product work.
Its SKILL.md is about 370 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5008 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `.ai/context/capability-source-map.json`, `.ai/context/context-map.json` and `.ai/harness/brain-manifest.json`).
The repository describes itself as: File-backed workflow harness for reliable Claude Code and Codex sessions. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/repo-harness”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- setup — bind the mode and target repo, then assign repo-harness-setup.
- plan — use repo-harness-check for scoped design or plan review.
- execute — assign a bounded brief and owning paths. Load worker techniques
- verify — use repo-harness-check to assess recorded checks and risk.
- handoff — read references/handoff.md only when work must resume later.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 461e054. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Repo Harness loads about 365 tokens when it runs, and up to ~28k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 166 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Bot entrypoint. Resolve scope, worker ownership and the authorized outcome.
Use repo-harness state resolve --json when active harness state is needed.
Treat the returned state as authority; load only the files it names.
Load the required herdr skill before controlling Herdr panes or agents.
Only an agent inside a Herdr pane may run those control commands.
- setup — bind the mode and target repo, then assign

Keep main publication, deletion, credentials/permissions and release/production within their separate authorization boundaries. Ordinary work needs scoped changes, verification and a PR description. Load architecture or command details only when the task needs them.
